A Golden Mouth Miracle

12 July

You know, I had such a pleasant surprise today when I went for tuition. The P1 girl whom I mentioned in my last weeks’ blog (who has Selective Mutism) has finally opened her golden mouth to speak to me. She could even tell me about her cousin and her favorite toys. Guess what her favorite toys are?? They are 7 little stuffed pigs … how appropriate because I love little pigs too!! Does it give you a clue why my email address is Piggyam?

I was so thrilled that I sms to her mum and this was her reply …”Wow! That’s fantastic! It’s really a pleasant surprise. She usually takes a very long time to get used to a person. She must feel very comfortable with you to tell you about her pigs. Thanks so much for helping her to open up. And if she can giggle with you, it means she likes you. That’s good!” I knew deep in my heart that this was really the favor of God. I could not have done this at all!

In fact, in the last week, I have been fervently praying for her and asking the Lord to miraculously heal every anxiety and break every mute spirit within this child. I sensed a difference when I went this morning and I somehow knew that the Lord had opened her mouth and given that freedom of speech. To me, this was a real power encounter because the home has a very big altar and statues of Buddha all over but I believe that we can conquer all of this with Christ’ love. The Lord was teaching me to take up the spiritual authority over our neighborhood and to ‘pastor’ our city as we thread the ground - like in Luke 10:19 ..I have given you authority to trample on snakes and scorpions and to overcome all the power of the enemy, nothing will harm you.

God really has a wonderful plan for this child and I want to release a greater amount of healing, confidence and restoration over this child. I want to believe that these are Days of Revival and that the parents will come and ask me how their child was healed and how they can receive salvation in Jesus Christ. Zech 8:23 ..In those days.. they will take hold of the hem of your garment and say, “Let us go with you, because we have heard that God is with you.” I am very excited and want to claim this blessing, healing and salvation over this entire household.

Today’s text in the booklet was appropriate too. There is a declaration to thank the Lord for every person alive in Singapore and that each person matters. Every life is a gift from God and they are infinitely precious. Every one is a potential follower of Jesus, a fisher of men and a star witness for Christ. Amen!!
