KYIV, UKRAINE — What does a Ukrainian congregation do when missile attacks knock out the electric power? It can become a time of miracles, as seen in this story of a prayer retreat in Ukraine organized by the Kyiv Jewish Messianic Congregation last August.

Boris Grisenko – Senior Rabbi of KJMC:

And then the Lord will demonstrate…

Can you hear me now without the microphone at the back?

Yes!

Boris:

The battle healing ministry is about to begin!

So, you should close the ear with which you can hear well, if you are deaf in one ear, or if you have trouble hearing with one ear. Now, I will say one short phrase – two words, and you, if you hear with the ear that was deaf or did not hear well, after I say this phrase, boldly, then, after a moment, repeat it loudly. This does not apply to those who have good hearing in both ears, only if you are deaf or hard of hearing in one ear. The good ear should have been closed tightly. And now, in the name of Yeshua – “Rejoice in the Lord!” If you heard with one or both ears, repeat it loudly.

Rejoice in the Lord!

On the second day of the Prayer Retreat, August 26, Ukraine experienced one of the most massive missile attacks ever, over 200 air targets were shot down. Because of this, power outages started. Despite the heat of + 35C (+95F), the air conditioners in the room were not working and the power was out, the Lord worked powerfully during the entire retreat and worked many miracles!
