Healing by the Word *

He carried in his own body on the cross the sins we committed. He did this so that we might live in righteousness, having nothing to do with sin. By his wounds you were healed. 
1st Peter 2:24 CEB

Tonight was the first night of a 5-day conference at my church. Guest evangelist, Dale Everett taught on healing in a way that totally grabbed my attention of all God has been speaking to my spirit this week - that it's not about what I've done or haven't done. It's about WHO GOD IS. God, our Healer, is not just a name - it's His Nature. It's about Him.

During the teaching, I didn't feel goose bumps or heat or anything. It was more like feeling an expectation, but not actually feeling anything. Literally. About a quarter of the way through the service, I thought, "My ankle isn't hurting." About 15 minutes later, I realized my knees were not hurting. By midway through the service, I wanted to get up and walk! In my mind, I said, "God, I don't want to disrupt the service. This is in no way an act of unbelief. I am so grateful." It wasn't a healing line, nobody laid hands on me. I listened to the Word being taught. Isaiah 55:11 tells us, It is the same with my word. I send it out, and it always produces fruit. It will accomplish all I want it to, and it will prosper everywhere I send it.

At the end of the service, Dale said if we felt like God had done something for us to come to the front. I stood up and WALKED TO THE FRONT! Then when he found out I had not walked without a cane or walker for a year, he took my hand and said, "Let's go for a walk!" And we walked back and forth across the front of the church.

I LEFT THE WALKER AND THE CANE AT THE ALTAR!!!!

BY THE BLOOD OF THE LAMB AND THE WORD OF MY TESTIMONY!! ALL GLORY TO GOD!!

Prayer:

Father, 

           I can never praise You enough or thank You enough for saving me and the provision You have made for me throughout my life. This healing that You've done tonight is miraculous and I give You all glory! Let it be a witness to someone in need tonight. In Jesus' Name we pray. Amen
