Right Believing
Recently, the Lord has been teaching me that I have been approaching things incorrectly. I have been believing FOR the right things, but not necessarily believing THE right things.
You guys know that for the past week or so I have had pain in my legs from working out. It escalated towards the latter days of the week to my heel making it really difficult to put pressure on it to walk. It was also very sensitive to the touch causing me to believe that it had to do with gout again. I had been praying for healing pretty much every night that God would heal me of this so I can get out and do stuff without coming home in terrible pain and exhausted from spending all my energy just trying to get around.
The Lord showed me that my belief FOR healing wasn't the problem. The problem was everything behind that belief.
Belief that:
I had to earn it
I had to be "right" with Him
He doesn't always heal
I don't deserve it
I'm not worthy
I need to have enough faith
I need to apply my faith
Once I learned how to have a right belief, my healing came instantly. I was still not mobile Saturday night. Ivo can attest to that as he picked up dinner for me. You guys saw me on Sunday morning. I was walking around and making my way through church.
There was still some lingering pain, but I would say I was 90% healed and it happened instantly. I went to bed with minimal pain and I woke up with even less. PRAISE THE LORD!
I hope we can start aligning our beliefs with God's Word and truth and really start making things happen. Not only in our personal lives, but in Summit, in church, and in our communities
