“The Lord Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, and today, and for ever” ( Hebrews 13:8).
Pastor Daniel Yusuf and four other brothers, tied by the extremist and left on the railway tracks for their Christian faith. Hands tied back with ropes. They started singing how great is our God.
As the train was approaching fast. Pastor Daniel and four other brothers started shouting that they would die but not deny Jesus.
The train was dangerously close and the extremists had retreated near their vehicles. and were watching them. His last prayer, “Heavenly Father, into your hands I commit my spirit. Forgive these men, for they know not what they are doing. Use our death to glorify your name”.,
Just 10 seconds left, At that last gasp of time that air around changed and an invisible presence, but of a tremendous power and majesty had entered the scene. The gentle blowing wind stopped completely. Everything was still. A figure luminous silhouette, transparent as crystal, but bright as the midday sun appeared directly over the tracks, positioning between them and the locomotive. A liquid light pure glory from the very divine presence materialized in the human form. The figure simply extended the arms to the sides as if preparing to receive an impact.
The train the mass of tons of steal travelling more than 80 kms per hour began to slow down. Not a normal deceleration, no screeching of emergency brakes, no sparks flying from the wheels rubbing against the tracks, no characteristics metallic sound of a sudden stop. It was as if a gigantic invisible hand has simply grabbed the train and began to stop it gradually, smoothly as if it were a mere child’s toy being stopped by its owner
The extremist watching from distance were confused and thought it was a witchcraft and fled, As the train continued its impossible deceleration the silhouette in front of them became sharper and sharper. They recognized the hands that had deep marks in their palms. They also recognized the feet that carried the scars. It was Him. It was Jesus it was their Redeemer and Saviour the King of kings and the Lord of lords standing physically present on those tracks in stopping 150 ton locomotive with nothing more than the power of the divine presence.
The train stopped completely at exactly 3 meters from them. They could hear the hiss of the engine smell of the oil.
The train was completely motionless as if it had been frozen in time and space. The figure of the Lord Jesus then turned to them. His eyes like liquid fire filled with love so intense, so pure, so perfect that they felt their heart would explode with joy. The Lord Jesus looked directly to the Pastor Daniel and said, “My son your faith has saved you. Rise up”. In that very instant the ropes and the cables that bound him to the tracks loosened by themselves. They did not break, they were not cut. They simply came undone as if invisible hands had carefully and precisely untied them.
All the five of them kneeled on the tracks in front of the miraculously stopped locomotive and worshiped the Lord.
The Lord Jesus smiled at them. A smile that seemed to contain all the tenderness and goodness of the universe. He began to fade, gradually becoming translucent and finally a golden light remained floating in the air for few seconds and disappeared.
The hand of the Lord is mighty and powerful. His saving strength is magnificent. When He can split the sea, breakdown the walls, stop the river, and can tie the mouth of the lion, He can do anything and everything. He will protect us and save us in all situations. He is the saving strength of the Anointed.
There is one more mighty sign and the world will know that the coming of the Lord is near. There will be persecution, torment and torture, but the Lord will never forsake us.
“He shall call upon Me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and honour him. With long life will I satisfy him, and show him my salvation” (Psalms 91:15,16).
Even if men come before you with arms and ammunition do not fear call the Lord, call Him with all your Might or silently in your mind but call Him “Lord Jesus” and He will save you. He hears even the faintest cry. If you are gifted with speaking in tongues, speak in tongues the enemy will fear and flee.
THE LORD JESUS CHRIST is Omnipotent. He is our Rock, our Fortress and our Deliverer.
God bless.
