A Changed Life Changes Lives
Juba was troubled by what his friend had to say—that the Koran says Isa a ‘Masih, Jesus the Messiah, was born of a virgin. That Jesus is “the Word of God” and “the Spirit of God”, and more. Born and raised a devout Muslim in the horn of Africa, this news shook him to the core.
After long struggle and prayer, Juba surrendered his life to Jesus as his Savior and Lord. He soon attended a discipleship-mission training that several local churches had launched with Global Disciples’ help.
During outreach after his training, Juba led many more Muslims to faith in Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior. Miracles were common as the Holy Spirit transformed devout Muslims into dedicated followers of Jesus Christ.
As word spread about Juba’s effective outreach, other churches wanted him to teach them about leading Muslims to faith in Christ! Such an event would be risky—if the wrong people found out, the churches could be attacked. So, the church leaders planned quietly, put security in place, and then invited their people for training.
When the first day of the training dawned, a group of Muslims waited at the church door, carrying an older woman on a couch. The church leaders wondered if it was some kind of trap, setting them up for an attack.
Juba stepped out to speak to the visitors, led by the shek, the region’s key Muslim leader. The woman on the couch was his wife; she had not walked in three years! But she had a dream in which Jesus told her to come, that a teacher would pray, and she would be healed.
So, Juba prayed. And the shek’s wife stood up, completely healed by Jesus! Today, those who carried her couch are among thousands of Muslims we’ve seen become dedicated disciples of Jesus and disciple-makers.
