The two Christian brothers, prayer and fellowship

Dec. 2--98:     On the last 24 hour trip in Oakland CA; I was set up at a bus bench with the shield facing the buses so the passengers could see it. A brother stepped off the bus, looked at the shield and grabbed my hands and prayed a powerful prayer. He then gave me a hug and said: "God bless you; and merry christmas".  This was edifying and encouraging; and practically left me stunned. He didn't say anything else and kept walking.

Note: This is very different than a programmed event in the churches; where the prayer at times can be dead and no power. I've had many special prayer times with believers in churches and served on a prayer ministry team.

     Within a few blocks--setup at another bus stop.  There was a church behind me, and a christian man was standing in front and greeting church members. I had to anoint the church and was waiting for an opportunity. The brother could not see the shield because it was facing the street. This brother approached me and presented a tract. He saw the shield and we began to fellowship. He said he had a street ministry and was a street evangelist.
     I shared a couple of testimonies from the year in the streets, and he laid hands on me and prayed a powerful prayer. We encouraged and built each other up in the faith and our calling from the Lord. I anointed the church and prayed over it. As we were fellowshipping, a christian bus driver pulled up and wanted my shield. There were three of us fellowshipping now brought together by the Lord. I can't describe the joy of this fellowship; and was typical of other encounters with believers in the streets.
