A preacher said, "Anyone with 'special needs' who wants to be prayed over, please come forward to the front by the altar."
With that, Leroy got in line, and when it was his turn, the Preacher asked, "Leroy, what do you want me to pray about for you?" Leroy replied, "Preacher, I need you to pray for help with my hearing." The preacher put one finger of one hand in Leroy's ear, placed his other hand on top of Leroy's head, and then prayed and prayed and prayed for Leroy and the whole congregation joined in, with great enthusiasm.
After a few minutes, the preacher removed his hands, stood back and asked, "Leroy, how is your hearing now?"
Leroy answered, "I don't know. It ain't 'til next week."

@Olamide I keep coming back and chuckling over this one

I was leading the worship at a famous preacher's healing event (they said he was famous - I'd never heard of him lol)

Anyway, we managed to get to the end of his talk and he asked for the worship team to come back up (just me - nobody else could make it lol)

He said he wanted to pray for me. Makes sense I thought

Now I was used to Pentecostal 'ways' so put my hands out as was normal for prayer in that situation

But he simply put his hands around my neck

My pastor ooked a tad surprised, but mouthed at me to 'go with it' with a slightly concerned face

And I nearly did - I nearly went with it, straight out the door, after nearly punching him for trying to strangle me!

I'm not a violent man, but put your hands round my neck and my peaceful demeanour will change!!

I look back and laugh at it now...it wasn't so funny at the time...

Some people really like to grandstand don't they!!

Just pray in authority - it worked for Jesus

@Berrybunchfamily @Olamide Andy, I would've loved to been there! I would've been laughing so loud!
