God Defrosted My Shoulder!!

Time for a change?.................yep time to be healed!!

There is a lot of debate about at the momment regarding healing. I think it's wonderful but in the midst of it there's a potential for the enemy to get in and divide the people of God. I have no doubt that the debates are not new and always seem to revolve around why God does not heal ALL the time. I don't have an answer but what I DO know is that God DOES HEAL! I was sat listening to Melanie Fields at a meeting where her husband Roy had just led worship for 2 hours ( the time flew in) She started preaching about God sending His Spirit of fire on the church telling of what God had done in her life. As she preached she started shouting Fire, fiiiiiiiiiiiiiire! Fire, fiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiire! That day for the first time in months my shoulder had begun to freeze up. At the time she started shouting fiiiiiiiiiiiiire! I felt a tingling (not like a tingling I have ever felt) go over my shoulder and then ....no pain. None whats so ever.

On Sunday night 2 of my fellow ministry guys prayed for my legs which get sore at night so as I can't sleep. Every night apart from 2 nights this week I have slept thru (those 2 nights were nothing to do with my legs. 1. I felt the call to pray and the other I felt the call to empty the washing machine!!)

God is amazing. He continues to heal, will continue to heal, maybe not all the time but that's not going to stop me praying. Do I need to have my theology all worked out...........Did the disciples when Jesus sent out the 70?

Sorry to all those who spend years debating , writing books and hours of teaching. At the end of the day we are called to do as instructed in Mathew 10" As you go, preach this message: 'The kingdom of heaven is near.' Heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse those who have leprosy,[a]drive out demons. Freely you have received, freely give."

I WILL NOT let my lack of biblical knowledge, poor education or under developed theology prevent me from praying for those who asked to be healed. I will continue to be compassionate to those who have not recieved their healing yet and when they find it hard to believe for them selves will believe for them.

God has moved in my life why can't He move in yours?

C'mon God. Yes! YES! Yeee ES or Fiiiiiiiiiiiiiiire!!

Hey Pete, I love hearing about times when God heals, it's something that's been perplexing me lately as well, and the devil loves the fact that the (our) church can't agree on it. As you say, he'll use it (and the "unwise who see themselves as wise in their own eyes" among us) to divide the bride of Christ. I've found great revelation in Job 38-42ish where God answers Job's grumblings of 'why did you do this to me' with a justified boast expounding His glory. God is good, He is worthy of our worship. His worthiness is, in my opinion, the number one reason to worship God - end of story.

Thanks Guys for your encouragement. Lets pray that no matter what our theology on healing that we can worship as one body because He IS worthy!!
