God of miracles

Thursday, March 8th, 2007

“Light was beaming from His face… His clothing was pure white.”

In a closed nation in North Africa, an Arab woman experienced a powerful dream…Nadira saw herself in a chair at a round table. Others were sitting with her. A door opened behind her. Nadira turned to look. She saw a man in a white robe. Brilliant light was streaming from His face and clothing.

Others around the table reached out their arms towards the man, begging His touch… asking for just a word from Him. Instead, He walked directly to Nadira. He placed His hand on her shoulder and said to the people, “No, I have come for her.” Then, speaking only to Nadira… “I have come today especially for you.” She awoke.

Two days later, Nadira was invited by a co-worker from a Western nation to watch a film on DVD about the “Prophet Isa” (Jesus, whom Muslims honor as a prophet). Even though this Western co-worker could not speak her language, he arranged for her to watch the DVD in Arabic. It was, of course, the film “JESUS.” He did not know about her dream.

Nadira sat down comfortably and began to watch. The film came to the scene where Jesus was about to be baptized by John the Baptist. First, Nadira saw Jesus’ feet stepping through the shallow water. In the next scene she saw His face. Nadira sprang hard to her feet and began screaming in Arabic:

“That’s Him! That’s the man I saw in my dream! Tell me! Who is He!?”

The co-worker asked for help from a colleague, a woman who spoke Arabic. She explained to Nadira who this man was, the story of the gospel, and why Jesus had come especially for her. Nadira was so amazed that she fell to her knees right then, and prayed, giving her life to Christ.
