Healing in a Time of Crisis

Have you heard of "Lumpy Skin Disease?" We hadn't either. But according to the news website The National, “Nearly 100,000 cows and buffaloes have died after more than two million cattle were infected by [the lumpy skin disease virus] in India in one of the deadliest outbreaks in the country."

One of our Bible Workers in western India, where the outbreaks have occurred, was recently able to reach out to a man named Vitthal, whose cows had been affected by lumpy skin disease.

Vitthal’s cows had been sick for several days, and he believed they would die. Suddenly, in the midst of his crisis, Brother Vishwas, our JFA Bible Worker, came to visit him at his house. Brother Vishwas asked if he could pray for Vitthal, and Vitthal requested that he pray for his cows.

Brother Vishwas prayed with Vitthal earnestly for God to save the cows’ lives, and He heard their prayer. Even though two of his neighbor’s cows died from the disease, God protected Vitthal’s animals. Vitthal shared his thanks to God that his animals survived.

We praise God for using Bible Workers like Brother Vishwas to reach people in their time of need and show them the love of Jesus. Please keep these Bible Workers and those they are witnessing to in your prayers.
