Monday morning came and so did the people. They came in droves. They overflowed out of the church and the Spirit of God fell upon them all.
There were miracles done and languages only known to God spoken. The blind saw and the lame walked. People were saved as the love of Christ was replenished in the hearts of those who had grown cold to it.
The revival stretched on and became a week in duration. Employers came to see what had become of their employees and in turn got saved themselves. Through it all Zora watched the hand of God moving upon the lives of others, as she helped and was of use wherever she could be.
The service was in its seventh hour on the Monday of the second week of the revival, when Zora left the front of the church filled with worshipers to head back to the back and sit and rest for a while.
On her way she saw a man standing at the back of the church with a deer in the headlights look in his eyes. He was Middle Eastern.
A congregation member approached in an attempt to outreach to the man, but it was clear that the man did not speak English well enough to fully understand what the church member was saying.
Zora stepped closer and in fluent Arabic said, "Welcome to the house of God friend. What brings you here?"
The man looked astonished to hear his own language and quickly responded, "I had a vision last night of a man with holes in his hands and feet. He told me to come here. I am here, but I do not understand why." The man said, as he relayed in evident mystery as to why he a practicing Muslim should be told by a man with unquestionable authority in a dream to come to a Christian church.
Zora began to explain to him then the symbolism of his encounter as well as the gospel of the man named Jesus, who had come in the flesh being the Son of God and who had died for all so that all who believed in Him and put their faith in Him alone could have everlasting life.
The man labored with a simple concept of the part of the process though by which salvation is attained by belief in Jesus and what he did for all.
"This forgiveness. I do not understand it! How can a man who I never met, who is God, but walked as a man on this Earth forgive me so far forward into the future, when I never knew of Him?"
