Tengeru Bridge

This week, we decided to go to visit a few friends. We were interested in seeing the bridge on the road to Tengeru. These

first pictures above are from 2009, when the bridge was in very poor shape. Local residents reported that there was an evil spirit in the chasm below that would “call” high occupancy vans or buses to careen through the guardrail on one side, plummeting to their deaths in the deep ravine below. Almost weekly, there would be deaths reported at this location. In fact, the guardrails would be repaired, and immediately another vehicle would destroy it again.

In March 2009, the Lord directed us to pray at this bridge, declaring the Word of the Lord over this place. The mysterious accidents stopped. When we returned in 2010, we witnessed the change in the condition of the bridge. The guardrail had remained in place for so long, rust was actually forming! However, you know how we humans can be. . .upon our return this year, we wanted to see it again with our own eyes, to know for sure that this prayer really worked.

I am thrilled to bear witness: the bridge is in fine condition! As we passed over it, the passengers in our car broke into praise to the God who overcomes. We were delighted to notice that there are still rusty places, showing there has been no need to do further bridge repair! God is good!
