Jesus Is Visiting Muslims And They Are Becoming Christians

As a bagpiper, I play many gigs. 

Recently I was asked by a funeral director to play at a graveside service for a homeless man. 

He had no family or friends, so the service was to be at a pauper's cemetery in the Nova Scotia back country.

As I was not familiar with the backwoods, I got lost and being a typical man, I didn't stop for directions but finally arrived an hour late and saw that the funeral guy had evidently left and the hearse was nowhere in sight.

There were only the diggers and crew left and they were eating lunch.

 I felt badly and apologized to the men for being late.

I went to the side of the grave and looked down and the vault lid was already in place. 

I didn't know what else to do, so I started to play.

The workers put down their lunches and began to gather around.

 I played out my heart and soul for this man with no family and friends.

 I played like I've never played before for this homeless man.

 And as I played "Amazing Grace", the workers began to weep. 

They wept, I wept, we all wept together.

When finished, I packed up my bagpipes and started for my car. 

Though my head was hung low, my heart was full.

As I opened the door to my car, I heard one of the workers say, "I never seen anything like that before, and I've been putting in septic tanks for twenty years."

Everyone loves a good story.

 As Christians, we especially love stories that tell us how, when all seems lost, God makes a way.

One such story is about the church in Iran—and it’s one of the greatest stories in the world today.

It’s a simple story that can be summarized in just two sentences:

 Persecution threatened to wipe out Iran’s tiny church. Instead, the church in Iran has become the fastest growing in the world, and it is influencing the region for Christ.

As simple as it is, such an amazing story is worth examining deeper.

 "So besides the darkness coming in, trying to get the salt and light out -- killing lives and bringing so much pain and suffering -- on the other hand, we're seeing the rise of the presence of God, worship, prayer, experiencing Jesus and people being open to the Gospel and being open to follow Him, even from Muslim background," one man named Fabian, who asked that his full name not be disclosed, told CBN News.

 "People in these streets and in these refugee camps, from places where ISIS has occupied, even people from here are encountering Jesus in dreams and visions," Fabian said.

 "It's probably the only place in the world where they are coming so quickly,” she said (Heidi Baker). “Many people are having dreams. They see Jesus appear to them. Probably half our pastors were leaders, imams in Moslem mosques. They were leaders in these mosques, now they're pastors."
