We are under spiritual attack. That is what I told our standers at Bible study on Monday evening, when I asked for their prayers. Samantha, our two year old granddaughter, fell and broke her arm Saturday evening when Tom had just arrived in town to help Tim with work since he has been sick. Bob's knee has gotten worse and he is in a lot of pain. I have recently been diagnosed with Diabetes. It seems like our family is in a medical soap opera.
The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full. John 10:10
What are we going to do? I pulled out Bob's book, "Be Healed," subtitled, " The Lord God Heals -Sick Bodies and Sick Marriages." The scripture on the cover is; "I was sick and You looked after me.." Matthew 25:36. I then turned to the back of the book and started praying and claiming the scriptures of healing that are throughout the Bible. God's Word ministers healing to you regardless of your circumstances. He is right there with you.
We have so many standers who are facing personal illness, or their loved ones are sick. I cannot encourage you enough to believe for healing for yourself and your family. Bob and I are living proof that regardless of what the Doctors and your body may say, you can still live and serve the Lord. Bob is living proof of that for the past ten years. The Neurologist and Cardiologist both say each time, "You are a living miracle. You should be dead." To God be the glory; Bob is alive.
So in spite of the attack on our health, we serve an awesome mighty God who is our great Physician, our Jehovah-Rophe (Lord Who Heals). May I share two scriptures that will show you the power of God's Word.
Then Moses cried out to the LORD, and the LORD showed him a piece of wood. He threw it into the water, and the water became sweet. There the LORD made a decree and a law for them, and there he tested them. He said, "If you listen carefully to the voice of the LORD your God and do what is right in his eyes, if you pay attention to his commands and keep all his decrees, I will not bring on you any of the diseases I brought on the Egyptians, for I am the LORD, who heals you. Genesis 15:25-26
Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight. Do not be wise in your own eyes; fear the LORD and shun evil. This will bring health to your body and nourishment to your bones. Proverbs 3:5-8
Now, we would love to have you pray for our family at this time as we pray for your marriage to be restored.
