September 29, 2026. Today I woke up, listened to Matthew 8, with the leading of the Holy Spirit, prayed, put on the full armor, as we read in Ephesians 6:10-18 and started getting ready to go where I was hearing from the Holy Spirit to go to. I was feeling like I was going to drop, prayed and prayedYesterday while speaking to one of the disciples an offering came in which I heard was to extend this place where the Holy Spirit has me in for two more nights. The Holy Spirit told me how many days to stay here. Each time the Holy Spirit tells me what to do with the offering when asked and received, as it’s HIS money for the souls. Then after getting ready I went down to pay for the two nights, got a motor taxi, shared the Good News of Jesus with the driver, when going into the plaza I was led to walk, giving the Good News of Jesus out loud and person to person.
Matthew 8: Jesus Heals a Man with Leprosy
8 Large crowds followed Jesus as he came down the mountainside. 2 Suddenly, a man with leprosy approached him and knelt before him. “Lord,” the man said, “if you are willing, you can heal me and make me clean.”
3 Jesus reached out and touched him. “I am willing,” he said. “Be healed!” And instantly the leprosy disappeared. 4 Then Jesus said to him, “Don’t tell anyone about this. Instead, go to the priest and let him examine you. Take along the offering required in the law of Moses for those who have been healed of leprosy.[a] This will be a public testimony that you have been cleansed.”
The Faith of a Roman Officer
5 When Jesus returned to Capernaum, a Roman officer[b] came and pleaded with him,6 “Lord, my young servant[c] lies in bed, paralyzed and in terrible pain.”
7 Jesus said, “I will come and heal him.”
8 But the officer said, “Lord, I am not worthy to have you come into my home. Just say the word from where you are, and my servant will be healed. 9 I know this because I am under the authority of my superior officers, and I have authority over my soldiers. I only need to say, ‘Go,’ and they go, or ‘Come,’ and they come. And if I say to my slaves, ‘Do this,’ they do it.”
10 When Jesus heard this, he was amazed. Turning to those who were following him, he said, “I tell you the truth, I haven’t seen faith like this in all Israel! 11 And I tell you this, that many Gentiles will come from all over the world—from east and west—and sit down with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob at the feast in the Kingdom of Heaven. 12 But many Israelites—those for whom the Kingdom was prepared—will be thrown into outer darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.”
13 Then Jesus said to the Roman officer, “Go back home. Because you believed, it has happened.” And the young servant was healed that same hour.
Jesus Heals Many People
14 When Jesus arrived at Peter’s house, Peter’s mother-in-law was sick in bed with a high fever. 15 But when Jesus touched her hand, the fever left her. Then she got up and prepared a meal for him.
16 That evening many demon-possessed people were brought to Jesus. He cast out the evil spirits with a simple command, and he healed all the sick. 17 This fulfilled the word of the Lord through the prophet Isaiah, who said,
“He took our sicknesses
and removed our diseases.”[d]
The Cost of Following Jesus
18 When Jesus saw the crowd around him, he instructed his disciples to cross to the other side of the lake.
19 Then one of the teachers of religious law said to him, “Teacher, I will follow you wherever you go.”
20 But Jesus replied, “Foxes have dens to live in, and birds have nests, but the Son of Man[e]has no place even to lay his head.”
21 Another of his disciples said, “Lord, first let me return home and bury my father.”
22 But Jesus told him, “Follow me now. Let the spiritually dead bury their own dead.[f]”
Jesus Calms the Storm
23 Then Jesus got into the boat and started across the lake with his disciples. 24 Suddenly, a fierce storm struck the lake, with waves breaking into the boat. But Jesus was sleeping.25 The disciples went and woke him up, shouting, “Lord, save us! We’re going to drown!”
26 Jesus responded, “Why are you afraid? You have so little faith!” Then he got up and rebuked the wind and waves, and suddenly there was a great calm.
27 The disciples were amazed. “Who is this man?” they asked. “Even the winds and waves obey him!”
Jesus Heals Two Demon-Possessed Men
28 When Jesus arrived on the other side of the lake, in the region of the Gadarenes,[g] two men who were possessed by demons met him. They came out of the tombs and were so violent that no one could go through that area.
29 They began screaming at him, “Why are you interfering with us, Son of God? Have you come here to torture us before God’s appointed time?”
30 There happened to be a large herd of pigs feeding in the distance. 31 So the demons begged, “If you cast us out, send us into that herd of pigs.”
32 “All right, go!” Jesus commanded them. So the demons came out of the men and entered the pigs, and the whole herd plunged down the steep hillside into the lake and drowned in the water.
33 The herdsmen fled to the nearby town, telling everyone what happened to the demon-possessed men. 34 Then the entire town came out to meet Jesus, but they begged him to go away and leave them alone.
Ephesians 6: The Whole Armor of God
10 A final word: Be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. 11 Put on all of God’s armor so that you will be able to stand firm against all strategies of the devil. 12 For we[d] are not fighting against flesh-and-blood enemies, but against evil rulers and authorities of the unseen world, against mighty powers in this dark world, and against evil spirits in the heavenly places.
13 Therefore, put on every piece of God’s armor so you will be able to resist the enemy in the time of evil. Then after the battle you will still be standing firm. 14 Stand your ground, putting on the belt of truth and the body armor of God’s righteousness. 15 For shoes, put on the peace that comes from the Good News so that you will be fully prepared.[e] 16 In addition to all of these, hold up the shield of faith to stop the fiery arrows of the devil.[f] 17 Put on salvation as your helmet, and take the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. 18 Pray in the Spirit at all times and on every occasion. Stay alert and be persistent in your prayers for all believers everywhere.
I was led with the rest of the offering to get mineral drinking water, another sleeping gown to have two for when one is washed the other can be used, breakfast, lunch and dinner made, as in the supermarket they sold that, some cookies, fruits and lentil chips. There is no fridge in the room, so each day the food and drinking water is gotten. One day at a time. The $100 dollars that was led to be sent to me yesterday was exactly what was needed today. I was so attacked in my mind and body till the afternoon to which I was led to shower and release it all while crying out to the Lord, which is what the enemy and his principalities do so we do not do anything for the souls. With the money left I was led to make some copies of the Good News of Jesus paper and it was to also hand them out after reading the Bible in Matthew 1 with the baseball players that are staying in the hotel the Holy Spirit has me in, had gathered to play dominoes on the rooftop, who were very thankful for the time to hear the word and how it became alive as we spoke and they asked questions.
The young adults from the baseball team staying in the hotel the Holy Spirit has me in here in La Romana, DR visibly relaxed more and more, as I was led to share the testimony of faith and how the Holy Spirit has been the one leading to do each thing that has been done with them. One of them put worship as we spoke in his speaker. Then I was led by the Holy Spirit to walk a bit outside and gave the Good News of Jesus and prayed with people and gave word from the Holy Spirit as heard, in Jesus name. The Holy Spirit will keep moving those who HE will for the rest of the days here and all that is needed as far as stay, food, drinking water and all needed to reach the souls HE needs reached. A sister was led to send $20 dollars later in the afternoon today, after being asked and it will be a blessing to many that will hear the Good News of Jesus, all for the souls in the Great Commission. At the end of the night I was led to surrender everything that had been released and done, asking for a fresh anointing of the Holy Spirit through the night.
