    154. Angels Among Us: Real Stories from the Mission Field
    Tim Ainley is the CEO of Forward Edge. He shares some beautiful miracle moments from the mission field which include an angel testimony. Love his inspiring share that is a reminder that each of us are on a mission field every day where God offers beautiful opportunities to be part of someone's miracle.    Highlights in this episode: 
    • How God led Tim to ministry at Forward Edge
    • Various sites and ways God has led them to serve 
    • God gives a woman (Gloria) a vision that leads to a miracle in Nicaragua 
    • Witnessing a dramatic transformation in the life a young lady at Villa Esperanza 
    • (15:40) A miracle of provision in Cuba when the Pastor is desperate for rice and mysterious man shows up with a cart full of rice 
    • A young man named Taylor feels led to buy a Bible at an airport and is in awe of what came next
    • Tim and I share some everyday miracles God has done in our normal routines at home (we all have a mission field!)
    • A sweet share about a Pennsylvania family who worked extra shifts to sponsor a young lady in Mexico to go to school and attend her college graduation
    • Closing prayer of gratitude and praise to God and blessing over listeners
      " I think we're going to get to the other side and we're going to see all the ways that we didn't know that God used something. It's going to bring us to our knees to see how amazing our Jesus is, what He does, and how He longs to include us in what He's doing. How great it is to get to be part of that!  And that's the greatest thing in life when God lets you be part of something He's doing. I don't think there's anything else that brings more joy and excitement. It's so, so awesome. I think that's what we're designed for. That's why it's so fulfilling, right? Ephesians 2:10 says we are God's workmanship created in Christ Jesus for good works, which He prepared in advance for us to do. God can move in big ways when we step out in obedience!" - Tim Ainley, CEO Forward Edge    Matthew 25:40 New Living Translation (NLT) “And the King will say, 'I tell you the truth, when you did it to one of the least of these my brothers and sisters, you were doing it to me!'"   History of Forward Edge MInistries: For the first 22 years of our history, Forward Edge was primarily a short-term missions agency engaged in a wide range of ministry activities. In 2005, following Hurricane Katrina in the Gulf Coast, we transitioned into a full-fledged relief and development organization with ongoing field programs directed by local leaders in some of the world’s poorest countries. The majority of our short-term missionaries now serve in locations where we have ongoing children’s programs, including Cuba, Haiti, Ghana, Kenya, Kosovo, Mexico, Nicaragua, and Uganda. This unique history has positioned us to not only understand what it takes to engage in effective, cross-cultural development, but also provide meaningful mission opportunities that strategically support ongoing programs in the field and contribute towards lasting change. We invite you to be part of God’s unique work through Forward Edge!

It's the strength of your Savior, and that's what our story is. It's not a shark story. It's a little boy who had big faith in an even greater God. Face your fear by faith. The key of faith always unlocks the door of fear. Where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom." - Jameson Reeder Sr.

    Heidi Barr was 16 when she died in a horseback riding accident and came face to face with Jesus. Raised in a small Orthodox Jewish community in Iowa, her atheist father had taught her that Jesus was a hoax. Heidi was so passionate about this Jesus she encountered that she graduated early and traveled to Israel for a year. She learned Hebrew and wanted to absorb everything she could related to Jesus.

    • 04:12 Heidi shares how her testimony was received by her family and community

    • 26:00 The deeply personal passing of her father - A powerful final message from Heidi to every listener about the living hope that we have in Jesus

    Closing prayer and blessing by John Burke:

    We have a LIVING HOPE in Jesus - 1 Peter 1:3-9 Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! In his great mercy he has given us new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, 4 and into an inheritance that can never perish, spoil or fade. This inheritance is kept in heaven for you, 5 who through faith are shielded by God’s power until the coming of the salvation that is ready to be revealed in the last time. 6 In all this you greatly rejoice, though now for a little while you may have had to suffer grief in all kinds of trials. 7 These have come so that the proven genuineness of your faith—of greater worth than gold, which perishes even though refined by fire—may result in praise, glory and honor when Jesus Christ is revealed. 8 Though you have not seen him, you love him; and even though you do not see him now, you believe in him and are filled with an inexpressible and glorious joy, 9 for you are receiving the end result of your faith, the salvation of your souls.

    148. Child Trapped in Mine for 5 Days Says Angels Were With Him
    In 1989, 10-year-old Joshua Dennis went missing in Utah's Hidden Treasure Mine. Despite a massive five-day manhunt, Joshua remained unfound, trapped in the dark, cavernous mine without food, water or light. All hope may have been lost had it not been for angelic protection and guidance.   In this episode I get to meet Joshua Dennis and Garrett Batty, the man who has written and directed the movie based on this miracle. Joshua and Garrett share a bit about the journey getting the testimony on the big screen, a few of the highlights and what they hope viewers will take from the film. Did Joshua suffer with injuries after the incident? He did share with me (after our recording) that he suffered from frostbite on his toes and feet briefly and there was talk about possible amputation, but praise God his feet were healed and he does not suffer long term effects. John Skinner (a major role in the film) is still alive to see this event captured on screen. Apparently he is even more shy than Joshua, but this warmed my heart to know he is able to celebrate with everyone who lived through this event.   To find showtimes, more info, or leave a review for Faith of Angels: faith-of-angels.com   The purpose of Everyday Miracles Podcast is to share the love of Jesus.

    145. Man Drowns & Receives Life Altering Message YOU Need to Hear!
    Dave Borrelli died on June 18th, 2022. While swimming in a pool with family, Dave experienced what doctors define as a shallow water blackout. His brother pulled his lifeless body from the bottom of the pool and was able to resuscitate him. In this episode Dave shares:  
    • 00:00 intro and a brief history of his faith walk
    • 04:07 the events at the pool that summer day
    • 05:10 a peaceful out of body experience when he drowned
    • 11:30 a vivid dream after the incident with a message from God and seeing warriors preparing for battle
    • 17:34 a powerful throne room experience with and angels that launched his faith to a new level
    • 21:25 a Biblical and timely message about the power of the Holy Spirit that dwells within each believer that will inspire every listener!
    Prayer to fight fear and encouragement to walk by faith and not by sight Scripture related to this episode: Romans 8:11 NIV "And if the Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead is living in you, he who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies because of his Spirit who lives in you." The Bible verse "your young men will see visions" appears: Joel 2:28 "And it shall come to pass afterward that I will pour out My Spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions" Acts 2:17 "In the last days, God says, I will pour out my Spirit on all people; your sons and daughters will prophesy, your young men will see visions, your old men will dream dreams" John 16:7-15 But very truly I tell you, it is for your good that I am going away. Unless I go away, the Advocate will not come to you; but if I go, I will send him to you. When he comes, he will prove the world to be in the wrong about sin and righteousness and judgment about sin, because people do not believe in me; about righteousness, because I am going to the Father, where you can see me no longer; and about judgment, because the prince of this world now stands condemned. “I have much more to say to you, more than you can now bear. But when he, the Spirit of truth, comes, he will guide you into all the truth. He will not speak on his own; he will speak only what he hears, and he will tell you what is yet to come. He will glorify me because it is from me that he will receive what he will make known to you. All that belongs to the Father is mine. That is why I said the Spirit will receive from me what he will make known to you.”   Song that Dave heard in his experience: https://youtu.be/GKxMRFcLlww?si=21DbCw486PoLzjme More info on shallow water blackouts and how to avoid it: https://underwaterhypoxicblackout.org/how-it-happens

Steve has ministered to thousands of patients and their families for 25 years in the largest medical center in the world - Houston's Texas Medical Center.

Don't believe the never lies that I'm never going to get well. I'm never going to overcome this. Just keep persevering, keep trusting God, keep doing everything that you know to keep your head up. Keep your head up looking at God and trusting in Him and exercising your faith and feeding your faith every day. And you are going to get your breakthrough miracle in Jesus name. God doesn't want to withhold it from you. He wants to give it to you, but sometimes he's doing a work in us before he does a work for us. And that's why God didn't do everything instantly because sometimes he's trying to grow our spiritual muscles and, and develop us and grow us up." - Steve Austin     "I am the Lord who heals you." -Exodus 15:26     "These signs will follow those who believe: In my name...they will lay hands on the sick and they will recover." -Mark 16:17-18 (Words of Jesus)     Steve's website for new devotional BE HEALED with pre-order perks!: https://www.pastorsteveaustin.com/   Where to find more on the Living Hope Chaplaincy: https://livinghopechaplaincy.com/home   Steve's email: [email protected]   Steve's wonderful book GOD HEALS with declarations, prayers, and so much more: https://a.co/d/5JLaFI5 Ramiro's American Idol miracle share and singing Amazing Grace: https://youtu.be/gpoobGy9Ph4?si=Ru3yzclmZ1koy4Bc
