THE lame walked, the blind had their eyes opened, the deaf heard and the sick recovered at the first-ever Pastor Benny Hinn crusade in Uganda held at Mandela National Stadium, Namboole on Friday.

Crippled from birth, 28-year-old Moses from Lira took his first steps at the prayer rally. He entered Namboole in a wheelchair, but was healed as Hinn prayed for people during his first crusade to be televised live to the whole world.

An elderly man who had been relegated to a wheelchair for seven years as a result of prostate cancer and bedridden for one and half years, sprang up and walked.

These were some of the many miracles at the start of the two-day crusade broadcast by the US-based GOD Television.

Hinn a renowned international evangelist explained his crusade in Uganda was the first to be broadcast live.

“Many people have been requesting me to air the crusades live, but I would turn them down. While in Washington I received a request from GOD TV to broadcast the crusade in Uganda live, which he accepted,” he told a fully packed stadium.

“I want to be saved,” the barefoot Moses said soon after giving his moving testimony to thousands of people who had travelled from different parts of Uganda, as well as neighbouring countries.

Moved by his desire to get saved Benny Hinn, promised to meet Moses’ expenses to study at a Bible school and also buy him trendy clothes.

“I want you to know that Moses, the poorest man is now rich with Jesus Christ,” the excited Benny Hinn declared.
Hundreds responded to Benny Hinn’s call to receive Jesus as their Lord and saviour after Moses’ decision.

Benny Hinn, led the congregation into praise and worship as soon as he entered the over 40,000-seater stadium.

Prior to the preaching, he invited Pastor Robert Kayanja to speak, saying he had heard so much about him.

Kayanja testified that 12 years ago he fulfilled his pledge to pay bills for Benny Hinn’s programme to run on a Ugandan television and received his anointing.
Benny Hinn amused the people when he told Kayanja that he looked more like a 22-year-old instead of his 44 years.

“Tell me the secret of your youth. You look so young,” the pastor said amidst cheering from the congregation. “I know what it is, it’s the anointing,” the evangelist added.

With a pastor like Kayanja, Pastor Hinn said, God had blessed Uganda.
