Prayed over a drowning victim...was resurrected
 

It was Benicasas Makita drill.lol No joke

Re: Prayed over a drowning victim...was resurrecte
 

Praise God! I know DDB was concerned his Makita would never live again.

He should have called that immersion a baptism. :heeheehee

He sure was thankful for your prayer!!

Re: Prayed over a drowning victim...was resurrecte
 

Yep, my Brother Will prayed for it.

It happened early this morning while up on a ladder. The gun fell from my clip and bounced into the pool. Went down 6 feet of water. Couldn't find the pool net, so I used a broom. Must of hit the trigger dragging to the shallow part. Reached down pulled it out. Yanked the battery out, and called Makita. They said sorry to hear what happened, but the gun is most likely dead. Was speaking with Brother Burk around 12 o'clock and had a battery back in the gun. Tried to run the gun while talking with Brother Burk the gun was dead. At the end of work was speaking with Brother Will on the way home, and told him. He said brother, let's pray. We prayed, and Brother Will said Lord make the Makita work. After we had prayed, and chatted for a while I reached over to the gun, and pulled the trigger. It started!!!! It runs like a champion. Thank you Jesus! Praise God for prayer.

Re: Prayed over a drowning victim...was resurrecte
 

I don’t think I’ve ever really made a prayer request on AFF...and I know this thread is a little “different”, but I would like to give a personal request to a few of my pals on here: My dad was diagnosed w Alzheimer’s quite a while back. He’s getting much worse now, my mom is under a great deal of pressure w it. We (my siblings and I) are trying to work together w her. I’m not wanting to hijack this thread, at all, but wanted to slip in a mention of it to a few friends I saw on this thread, in hopes of mentioning it during your prayers.
I mean, if a Mikita power tool can be brought back to working properly...how much the more... :)
I sincerely thank you, brothers.

Re: Prayed over a drowning victim...was resurrecte
 

Praying for your dad, mom, and family in Jesus name!!!

Jesus can do it!

Re: Prayed over a drowning victim...was resurrecte
 

Shag, you aint hijacking nothin bro. This is our primary purpose and calling which is Believe, Obey and Declare. Alzheimer's is a horrible disease and in Jesus mighty name I command life and healing into your father. I curse that disease in Jesus name and and command it to die and take its hands off your father. I revoke its ability to wreck havok on his health in Jesus name and speak strength into him. I command sound mind and thoughts and that any damage done will be reversed.

So be it.

Re: Prayed over a drowning victim...was resurrecte
 

I’m sorry to hear about your dad. My mom appears to be showing early signs of the same problem. I”ll be praying for you and yours in Jesus’ name.

Re: Prayed over a drowning victim...was resurrecte
 

Praying, Shag.

Re: Prayed over a drowning victim...was resurrecte
 

Praying for your mom as well Bro Burk.

Re: Prayed over a drowning victim...was resurrecte
 

I told Bro Benincasa he should name his resurrected Makita, Lazarus. Then when he gets it from his car he can say, "Lazarus, come forth."

:heeheehee

Re: Prayed over a drowning victim...was resurrecte
 

I have a lifetime warrantee on my Ridgid tools
They get resurrected by the manufacturer if they die.

Re: Prayed over a drowning victim...was resurrecte
 

LOL

Re: Prayed over a drowning victim...was resurrecte
 

I’d like to see the electricians report to verify if this was a healing, or if the drill needed to dry.

Re: Prayed over a drowning victim...was resurrecte
 

Eu Tu Thomas? lol

Re: Prayed over a drowning victim...was resurrecte
 

Bro Benincasa reported there were no signs of life in the Makita before prayer was given. Then, sometime after, it came roaring back to life. No tool should have been immersed that deep in water and then dead that long and still come back to a full recovery. What an electrifying testimony!

I also heard Bro. Benincasa has repented for haphazardly carrying his Makita around when it was not needed. That's something to be thankful for as well.




:heeheehee

Re: Prayed over a drowning victim...was resurrecte
 

See, it was that pride in that. Makita that went before its destruction and a haughty spirit before its fall...and drowning... hehe

Re: Prayed over a drowning victim...was resurrecte
 

That's funny.

I have another thing I need to mention.

Now, if anyone would of told me this, I wouldn't of believed them. Seriously, I would be hard pressed to believe this, but this is what happened today. Every morning I charge all my batteries for my Makitas. I went to charge the battery that fell in with the gun. It had a full charge, and all the light bars were bright. Used the gun screwing together an entire deck. Worked on it from 9 this morning until 7:30 using the once submerged gun. One of the brothers asked me if I needed another battery. I said no, I still have full power. He said that's impossible and you know it. It is impossible, but the battery still has a full charge. Put it into the charger and it says full charge.

I can't explain it and I am just a bit hesitant to claim that the tool was not only restored but has a battery that doesn't need to be charged?

Re: Prayed over a drowning victim...was resurrecte
 

Holy Wow!

Re: Prayed over a drowning victim...was resurrecte
 

I hear about this stuff on TBN... :heeheehee

This is cool. Keep us updated. Really.

Re: Prayed over a drowning victim...was resurrecte
 

does this mean that Benicasas Makita has gone charismatic?

Re: Prayed over a drowning victim...was resurrecte
 

No. It means that you need to dedicate one room to... IDK. Setup a backdrop of Israel behind you. Wear a pastel colored suit and go live... take prayer requests, but most importantly, ask for money... and tell the people that the bigger the seed offering, the bigger their faith.

Re: Prayed over a drowning victim...was resurrecte
 

Black is more my color and if I have to beg people on TV for money to pay for my mansion and jet I dont deserve a "ministry"

Re: Prayed over a drowning victim...was resurrecte
 

You’re not begging. You’re helping them to enter into their prophetic destiny. You’re not hearing me. Sometimes you have to pontificate to proliferate, to, to, you have to.... I feel that you doubt the veracity of the voice of vision that I am spontaneously speaking into your spirit.

Re: Prayed over a drowning victim...was resurrecte
 

I tell ya, if I didn’t have a soul I would be a televangelist.

Re: Prayed over a drowning victim...was resurrecte
 

My wife and I preached at a certain UPC church in northern Ohio several times in the late 1980s early 1990s. Back then, I carried several study books with me including a HUGE Strong's Concordance. During one visit a brother there had a "new" electronic Franklin Bible. He saw I did not have one and gave me his as a gift. Up until I got a laptop, I often used that thing when I traveled and studied. After we moved to WI in 2005, I kept it in our basement. When we had a tornado warning sending us to the basement, I would turn on that Franklin to see if it still worked. As crazy as it sounds, that same battery kept that Franklin working up until maybe 3 to 5 years ago. The screen was dimmer than it first was, but it still worked. God's Word is powerful!!

Re: Prayed over a drowning victim...was resurrecte
 

OK, I placed the Makita battery into an old DC-18RA Makita charger. It has the red light flashing. Which means two things, one the battery is overheated, and two the battery is defective. Pulled the Makita battery apart and found one cell is oxidized. Yet, all the battery cells checked out nice. Still shows a full charge.

Will not be putting battery back on any of my chargers. Because when you persist placing a "defective battery" or "hot battery" onto a charger. You will fry the pcb board. Then the unit needs to have a new board installed. While I had the battery apart I sprayed it with Paslode cordless tool cleaner (part no. 219348) and cleaned the oxidized terminal. I personally believe that I may have to take an old lap top and use the battery cells from it to replace the one cell in this Makita if it fails. I highly doubt that this is some sort of Elijah situation like the meal and the Ted cruse of oil. Where it just keeps working without stopping. I reassembled the battery and stuck it back into the gun. Will find out Monday how she does.

Re: Prayed over a drowning victim...was resurrecte
 

I figured itd be like that.

Re: Prayed over a drowning victim...was resurrecte
 

They don't chooch and they aren't very skookum.

But they are like your godhead.

Rigid is Ryobi and Milwaukee are made by TTi. Rigid being the licensed Home Depot brand. Makita is One and only one.

Re: Prayed over a drowning victim...was resurrecte
 

The gun still had water in it.

But she is STILL chooching! :happydance

Re: Prayed over a drowning victim...was resurrecte
 

I was a Makita fan until.....I now get a lifetime warranty on not only tools, but the batteries. I can easily return them to Home Depot.

Re: Prayed over a drowning victim...was resurrecte
 

I never have to buy another battery for my tools again.

Re: Prayed over a drowning victim...was resurrecte
 

How old are your batteries?

Re: Prayed over a drowning victim...was resurrecte
 

Sean, that is because Rigid is a homeowner tool. That is why Milwaukee is their professional line, and Ryobi their bottom do it yourselfer line. Ever hammer a 2x4 back into place with the battery end of your gun? I can't afford to stop working to run my gun to Home Depot for an exchange. So, when were you a Makita fan? When you worked everyday? Then you retired a bought the Ridgid. It is called Slippage. This is a term that companies use when they have lifetime guarantees. They sell an item (like your gun) which isn't put through everyday grueling work like Metabo, Makita, and Hilti. Slippage is when people actually don't return the items, or wait so long that the item is no longer available. Craftsman, Snap-On, Channel Lock, all have lifetime guarantees, and they break under heavy use. But, Brother and Sister Foofoofnick aren't going to hammer their Craftsman, Snap-On or Channel Lock everyday that sitting in the garage. I don't own Makita, because "if" it breaks I get a new one. I own it because it out performs the competition.

Re: Prayed over a drowning victim...was resurrecte
 

I hear you, but my last Makita drill batteries only lasted about a year. I was pricing new ones and saw they were nearly as much as a new drill. I do a lot of dry rot repairs and the Ridgid kit works as advertised. Thing is, unless I drop it in a pool... Lol, I just get a new one. I don't ever have to buy another one again....for life.

Battery costs are high for Makita stuff also.

The Ridgid drills are beasts.(almost snapped my wrist on one, which flew across the garage on a seized bolt)

The sawzall can jump out of your hands.

The sidewinder auto shuts down under a load momentarily. But that is rectified with a new blade.

I even have a stackable cart for all the tools when packing it around the house, made by Ridgid.

However, when it comes to serious construction, a good ol worm drive saw is most reliable.

I went to buy an American made worm drive a couple months ago, then noticed Skilsaw is Chinese now.....guess what I settled for, right, a Ridgid worm drive with lifetime warranty.

The country has changed in 30 years, huh?
