Every Thursday night at our church we have Healing Rooms set up where people of any denomination or none can come in and we will agree with them in prayer for God to heal whatever is wrong. When I was asked to fill in this week, I am not kidding I was really praying that no one would show up tonight and I could just spend the time soaking in His presence. Luckily for both of us, He knows what I need better than I do. Three people showed up needing miracles.
We saw God's healing power touch all three of them tonight and it was awesome! One had severe plantar fascitis... I can never remember how that is spelled. The swelling in and around the tendon went down significantly, and the pain decreased as did the numbness. It didn't totally go away though, which I am kind of bummed about, but I know that God is working on that foot!
Another person came in with intestinal issues that they had been battling for over 5years! God began to move and the pain left! Glory to God!
My sweet friend came up for prayer too. Her doctor thinks she might have mono. The swelling in her lymph nodes went down dramatically. There were two hard knots toward the back of her neck and she was extremely nauseous. The nausea left completely and the knots were nearly gone! YAY GOD! She is my running buddy who I love and I miss her, so I am really glad that we have a healing God who is in the business of healing bodies!
I love being around Him and in His presence... it just makes all of ME just disappear. I stop thinking about all the stuff going on around me and I don't care anymore. I just move and live and have my being in Him and the world melts away. I wonder if that is what Peter felt like when he stepped out of that boat and began to walk across the water. When he took his eyes off of Jesus and looked at the waves crashing around him and let him mind start working again, he began to sink. As long as his gaze was fixed on Jesus though he could walk across water.
I think I just got my eyes off of Him for a minute and on my circumstances and I began to sink. I am so grateful that He knows how to pull me back out and set my feet right back on the Rock where they belong.
I love you Father. I'm sorry for not keeping my eyes fixed on You. Help me to stay focused on You and Your plans for my life, in Jesus' Name. Amen
