The 41st day!
I woke up this morning and seemed that my faith was being shaken. I know, hard to believe, right!?!?! LOL In my alone time with God I have been praying for someone to get healed for the last week or so. For whatever reason, my friend seems to have accepted this disease, giving me the platitude that it's God's perfect timing because they have tried everything else. (I Know, I also shouldn't be whinning when I've only been praying for a week, either! But patience is one of the fruit of the spirit that I haven't really worked on too much!)
When I first started learning about God and how He heals, I was blessed enough to get to go through training with Kevin Dedmon and a team of students from Bethel Bible College in Redding, CA. That weekend changed my life. It was sown into my heart that God wants to heal every disease in every person all the time. I love that! He is just waiting on us so that He can release His kingdom in this earth!
So, why then, is my friend not healed. This person has been prayed over by some of the best, most anointed men and women of God. I felt myself wondering if maybe I was wrong. Maybe God doesn't want to heal everyone of everything all the time. Maybe I was wrong. I thought about it all morning long. Thanks to my pastor and one of the awesome students from Bethel, who I still get to be friends with, who reminded me what scripture says and the very nature of God which is LOVE. I can stand firm on His Word which says that He sent His Son to die for us so that we can be healed of EVERY DISEASE. My Faith is Stirred Up and I am going to focus on just soaking in His love more so that I can pour out His love on others.
I got to pour out that love and pray with one of my clients tonight. That is my favorite! They come in for a spray tan and they leave with a touch from God! My client came in with tendinitis on the upper and lower tendons of her elbow. As we were both getting ready to leave, she was telling me about the cortisone shot that she had gotten the day before to help with the inflammation and all of its negative side effects.
I asked her if I could pray for her. She hesitated and looked like she was going to say no, but then she smiled and said, 'Sure, why not?!?!' So we prayed. She wasn't having any pain at the moment from the shot but she was able to give me a hug before we left. I know that God is a big God and that He will take care of her. As we walked down the stairs I began to tell her of another client who God healed in my spray tan room. It was so awesome because I know that it encouraged her. I know God is doing great things!
