The prayerful Mama Rachael Ruto revealed hoe she was determined to change the situation.
“I kept wondering, am I worthy to do what Elisha did. But I kept thinking, maybe I need a pastor, maybe I need a prophet, maybe I need someone else. And the lord kept reminding me about that.”
MAMA Rachael Ruto Miracle prayers
“Usually Wednesday is our Day of prayer and fasting so I went for prayers then I thought let me go to the residence and see what is happening? When I got there, the lord reminded me about that water. You know what I did; I went to the kitchen, took a bowl, put salt and went to the borehole. And I went and decreed the words of Elisha. I said, this water will never be dirty again and I sprinkled the salt in the borehole. It was actually about to rain so I ran quickly and went to the house. “
“On Friday I went to the residence. I had some guests there. And I saw the water was looking different. So I waited until the guests had left and I called the boy. I was like Shadrack , what happened to the water. He told me mum, I don’t know what happened to the water, the water is now clean. He told me yesterday on Thursday, I had to call other boys to come and see what happened to the water. He even told me that he was no longer taking the water through the purification machine, “she concluded
