Desire, healing and our wonderful Father

This is about Ivan a young man at a local restaurant who was pierced with His Father God's goodness yesterday.

I decided to go have lunch at a local upscale restaurant. Hey I had a coupon that was going to expire soon, why not. When I arrived  a booth was offered where most of the people were, it was mid-afternoon so not that busy. I asked for a booth out of the area of the people so it was more secluded. As I was not feeling so great and if I started coughing I did not want it to bother them. 

Ivan was my waiter and a fine server. Then as I found out by speaking with him, a believer in Christ. Now what God did was awesome.

As he was serving I received a word about a woman named Sarah. So I asked him about Sarah. He had just met her recently. Daddy had some words about Sarah; that she had gone through some things recently that had caused hurt in her life. Then how Ivan was to be a light to her and offer godly friendship and insight for some of the things she had gone through. In addition that they were going to develop a great friendship. Of course he was a bit surprised but received it humbly.

Then a bit later I asked if he had any pain. Now this is a young man who seemed in good shape why would he have any pain? It turned out he had constant back pain that he had been seeking ways to get better. Then I said that God was going to do something wonderful for him. Then I ministered, prayed for him and he would be healed. So I simply sat there while he was standing near the table I simply commanded the pain to leave in the name of Jesus Christ. I did this in a normal voice and didn't even put my hand on him.

Well there Is a miracle when you check (how are you ever going to know what God does unless you ask them to check it, to do it what they couldn't before?) So I asked him to do what before caused the pain to increase. So he bent over, then farther. He rose up had quite a smile, the pain was, completely gone. Before I left I had him check it again, and again with his wonderful smile he was totally set free.

What can you say about our Father' goodness. He is so good, always.

Lady healed of Blepharospasm, blindness due to spasms around the eyes.

Last Wedensday I had 9/28 a lady called me needing furniture as no one includng her small church seemed able to help her. (I'm re-employed as customer care manager).

 I'm not in a position to give out free furniture. As we talked she related she was medically blind by the severity of a disease she has had for a year. This caused her to require dark glasses and take medicine. Speaking with her this morning 9/2 she is still praising God! The disease is blepharospasm she's had it for a year now but her granddaughter kept telling, encouraging her she would be healed.

The Disease:

Here the disease is defined from Wikipedia. A focal dystonia—a neurological movement disorder involving involuntary and sustained contractions of the muscles around the eyes. The term essential indicates that the cause is unknown, but fatigue, stress, or an irritant are possible contributing factors. In most cases, symptoms last for a few days then disappear without treatment, but sometimes the twitching is chronic and persistent, causing lifelong challenges. In those rare cases, the symptoms are often severe enough to result in functional blindness. The person's eyelids feel like they are clamping shut and will not open without great effort. Patients have normal eyes, but for periods of time are effectively blind due to their inability to open their eyelids.

As I spoke with her for awhile then eventually ministered to her (on the phone). After ministering I said like Jesus told the man with the withered, lame arm to stretch forth his arm you now must take off your glasses to see. The phone went silent for 5-10 seconds, She screamed out she was totally healed. She could see perfectly no spasms. She went on for 5 minutes or so praising God and thanking Jesus for his completed work. She called back about 10 minutes later to say what a mighty miracle had been done in her life, then again called leaving a voice mail to pray for her grandson so they not have to break the bones in his feet to get them lined up. Having spoke with her again today she continues to rejoice in how God has touched her life.

Glory to God for His goodness.

A mans back is healed and God provides.

While working at Day Furniture as a salesman, a fellow came in for a new mattress set. He told me he needed it because his back has been hurting. After speaking to him for a minute I offered to pray for his back. After ministering healing to his back by speaking to his back, commanding it to be restored I asked him to bend over and check his back out. He said he was much better. I ministered to him again and he was able to leave the store without buying a mattress set as he was healed in the wonderful name of Jesus Christ.

Of course we are only paid commission so that means no income with no sale. Well a little later the store manager called, asking me to fulfill a sale that would have been as large as the mattress set. God provided in both cases so no one lacked.

No mater how much we have seen God do He always has more for us.

3 Encounters and one wonderfully healed.

While working a part time sales job at a furniture store. A lady named Lucille came in she is a christian and the verse came up about healing the sick, raising the dead and casting out devils. She said the raising the dead was when we are raised from the dead. Well I didn't debate or try to make any sound Biblical points but just let her have her say and still the fellowship was good. As my attitude was not to prove I was right or the scriptures say and it would not have been a time for that

Then Another fellow came in and he had in the past been in a four square church and was now in a Baptist church. While he enjoyed the teaching there he missed seeing God move in the manifestations of the spirit and gifts in operation. We consider some records in brief from 1 Corinthians 12-14 by the time He left he was filled and blessed with God's desire for his people ot walk in who they are with the Christ in them.

Later one of the sale people Nancy who's background is a Catholic was having severe stomach pains. In the process of speaking with her I ministered simply in the name of Jesus Christ. Her pain left and she was so blessed and touched by God's goodness she came back to me later to say how good she felt. As her day went on she kept a most joyful heart and attitude.

We've got a grreat bit wonderful God.

For your blessing: Prayer of Faith and Prayer in Faith By Kenny Linhart

Until it Finally Comes 06/24/2013 Then Jesus told his disciples a parable to show them that they should always pray and not give up. —Luke 18:1 Have you ever prayed for something that didn't come about right away? I know I have. Not everything that we ask of the Lord manifests immediately. However, just because a thing takes time to come to pass doesn't mean that you are lacking faith. Don't confuse the Prayer of Faith with praying in faith. The two may sound alike, but they are different in origin and in the way they are administered.  The Word of God explains that there are gifts of faith, which are distributed as the Lord sees fit. There are times in a person's life when God steps in and, by a breath of His Spirit, enlightens them regarding His will. I've had this gift in operation many, many times in our ministry. As I am ministering or preaching, the Holy Spirit will strongly reveal God's will regarding a healing, miracle, or sometimes even a situation that somebody is facing. This revelation creates such a belief and conviction that I know, that I know, that I know if I will pray right then and there, what I'm praying for will manifest immediately. That's the Prayer of Faith!  This Prayer of Faith is an endowment. It's a divine interruption in the process of my increasing faith. It bolsters my developing faith to hook up with what God desires to accomplish. So what do I do? In obedience and urgency, I pray! The prayer offered in agreement with the powerful revelation from God almost always creates immediate and tangible results. Miracles are birthed into this world through the operation of this gift. It would be wonderful if I could pray this way all of the time, but that's not the way God distributes His giftings. So how do we pray when the Prayer of Faith or the gift of faith isn't in operation? We pray in faith and in obedience. While the Prayer of Faith only has to be uttered once because it's actually inspired and initiated by God, praying in faith may come from our own desire and take time and patience to see the materialization of what we are seeking. Jesus talked about praying in faith several times. In order to teach us that we should repeatedly come to the Father about the same matter until we see results, Jesus gave the example of the widow who kept coming to the unjust judge. He also illustrated this concept when He told the story of a man who, with boldness and importunity, would not give up until he received his request. This man kept asking his neighbor to help him by providing a late night snack for his unexpected guest. The Bible says that because of his continual asking, the neighbor would give him all he needed. If the gift of faith doesn't come on you, you simply can't pray the prayer of faith. So what do you do? You pray in faith. You pray with importunity, which means you flood the throne room of God with your request over and over. You can continually ask for the biblical thing you are seeking until it comes. This style of prayer isn't an indication of weakness. This type of insistent beseeching isn't a sign that you're not in faith. Instead, it is the evidence that you are in faith. Jesus told us to pray this way. This manner of continual asking is your obedient faith in action and it will produce results. If it's biblical, whatever you're asking of God will come. However, it most likely will take time. Whatever you do, don't give up! So how long do we continue believing? How long do we stay in faith and expectancy? How long do we keep praying about it? Jesus explained that we should do these things continually until it finally comes! Scriptural Context Luke 18:1-8 Concept Reinforcement Then he said to them, "Suppose one of you has a friend, and he goes to him at midnight and says, 'Friend, lend me three loaves of bread, because a friend of mine on a journey has come to me, and I have nothing to set before him.' "Then the one inside answers, 'Don't bother me. The door is already locked, and my children are with me in bed. I can't get up and give you anything.' I tell you, though he will not get up and give him the bread because he is his friend, yet because of the man's boldness he will get up and give him as much as he needs. "So I say to you: Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives; he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks, the door will be opened." —Luke 11:5-10 We do not want you to become lazy, but to imitate those who through faith and patience inherit what has been promised. —Hebrews 6:12 The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. He is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance. —2 Peter 3:9

Insights, growing and yet more to come

 Today I like to share on two words of knowledge I received and the results and also two other accounts that did not go the way I expected.

The first two were at Sam's club but at different times.

 While I was in line to check out I was seeing an angel behind and above a woman working at the register touching, ministering to her neck. When reaching the front of the line I asked her what was going on with her neck. She stated she had severe arthritis there. Then I offered to pray, minister to her neck which I did. God touched her but because of the line we did not get to speak much a afterward, next time I see her I will need to ask the full results.

 The second there was a lady who was promoting a product at the store and what I perceived was a dark cloud over her and as I pondered the meaning and kept shopping then I was given three words to share with her of specific encouragement. Later I did not want to go speak to her as there was a man selling with her (I didn't want to make a scene or embarrass myself). I figured so what! and went up and shared with her what was I was given to share. She had been going through some trying things in life and God blessed her in a wonderful way. She took quite a bit of time telling me about her life and how what I shared related to her.

Two other accounts.
 Last week there was a fellow missing half of his right arm so I went and spoke with him and found out he had lost it in a piece of machinery. The door opened for me to minister to him. I commanded his arm to grow out. Well you know what, it didn't happen but he opened some of his life and heart to me, he was so glad I took time for him. I encouraged him and we went my ways.
 This reminded me of a similar incident about a year ago with a lady who was missing the same part of her arm but her her case it was from birth she did not have it. I remember holding her stub in my left hand and having my right hand out ready to hold her hand at the moment it appeared, grew out. After speaking to her arm to grow, nothing happened. But again as in the more recent event she was very blessed with the time I took for her and opened her heart to me on some of her life.

From these last two accounts I know I will see body parts grow so that is not the issue for me at the moment. The issue for me was how they responded, how receptive they were to someone taking the time, blessing them, caring about them and telling them they were greatly loved by their God and Father.

More to come.

Blessings in Christ Jesus our risen Lord and Savior.

What I'm learning or relearning.

A couple of basic things have impacted me deeply and in an increasing way.

Man's utter depravity and need for God w/o God we are totally lost. Therefore our need for complete dependence on our Father.
That He has a supply that covers every need, every lack, every shortcoming.
To continually humble oneself, not something others necessarily see as it is not before men.
Its not about you (me).
As He reveals things about yourself, shortcoming, sins and so forth don't run from Him but towards Him. (Jn 3:20, 21)
As he reveals the greatness of who He is in you, give thanks.
To keep seeking our Father at all times.
When God opens a door walk in receiving what He has realizing on my own strength, ability or that I deserved it are in no way related to what He is doing or has done. (on my own I deserved death).
God's supply is often like manna in the Old Testament He supplies what is needed for today. Tomorrows supply will come then.

When He gives insight (words of knowledge) on someones life have a heart to minister in love. Minister as opportunity presents itself to all those in need as the situation arises and presents itself before you. Signs, miracles and wonders are normal for the Christian. The lack of them is not normal.
Every need is an opportunity to see God's handiwork in motion.

Be an encourager
Be a lover of good things
Pray for God's people
Don't judge men like the world does.

Thank you for your prayers and support
