LIFE AT 62 -- ITS ALL GOOD

February 17, 2012!  Approximately 5pm Eastern time.  I got the phone call I had been waiting for, not wanting but waiting for.  It was the nurse from the ENT's office telling me that the biopsy had come back positive for squamous cell carcinoma.  Kinda like a punch in the gut.  I remember that date and time like it was yesterday.  It so happened we were with my daughter and son in law at their home in Raleigh NC, and getting ready to go to dinner for my wifes birthday.  HAPPY BIRTHDAY HONEY! LOL.    That was the beginning of this journey that I will always have etched into my memory.  A journey that has taken me from there to here, with a lot of prayer, lots of chemo, lots of radiation, and total healing!  THANK YOU JESUS!  I know some say that all the medication is what healed, however I will say EMPHATICALLY that JESUS was and IS my healer.  Yes the meds did their thing, but I know beyond a shadow of a doubt that Jesus is the one who healed.  All signs of the disease were gone before the chemo was done, and before all the radiation even started.  Some use the M word, MIRACLE, and yes it probably was.  I dont like being called a "miracle man", but the fact is I have NO signs of the disease.

How do I know that?  Well its quite simple, the ENT just told me that today.  I went in to see him because I was having some coughing issues.  Of course its natural to start wondering, "what if", and I know that satan will throw things like this at you.  My wife basically told me to "reclaim" my healing.
I of course did, and went to the Dr anyway for confirmation.

Sometimes in the course of life, we all get distracted, and sometimes lose sight of the long range thinking of God.  We do not understand Gods mind, and we dont have to.  We must have the FAITH to know that HE KNOWS what is best for us, and ALLOW Him to have control.  In my case, I KNEW immediately that God was going to heal, and my wife KNEW when He did.  I dont know where that burst of faith came from, but it did, and Im forever grateful.  So what am I thinking about Gods long range thinking for me.  I dont have a clue!  LOL  I do know that God has been dealing with me a lot lately.  Seemingly changing the direction of my life yet once again.  I do know that I will never stop telling people about Gods healing power.

I know beyond any shadow of any doubt, that Jesus died on the cross for not only our sin, but for our healing.  He took on every darkness of sin and death and DEFEATED IT!!  There is NO sickness that is more powerful than God.  Ive been reading a daily email on healing from Mark Brazee.    Ive been reading this for the last 2 years, and it has helped me immensely.  Here is ONE excerpt from him.  Very powerful and worth reading

Keep Teaching Others How To Be Healed

And [Jesus] could there do no mighty work, save that he laid his hands upon a few sick folk, and healed them. And he marveled because of their unbelief. And he went round about the villages, teaching. —Mark 6:5,6

Jesus had traveled to His own hometown, and the power of God was present to heal. Jesus was anointed with the Holy Ghost and with power, but still only a few in Nazareth received their healing. Most of them wouldn’t receive because their unbelief was so strong. So what was Jesus’ solution to that situation? “He went round about the villages, teaching” (v. 6). When Jesus couldn’t get anything else to happen, He taught. Jesus did that all through His ministry. When He encountered the hard places, He’d just lean back and teach. When people weren’t receiving their healing, when He couldn’t do any mighty works, when no gifts of the Spirit were operating and no one was receiving the anointing, Jesus would teach and teach and teach some more. Jesus is our example. When people won’t receive, just keep teaching. That was a major part of Jesus’ ministry because when He taught people they were healed. The truth is, the only way to cure unbelief is to keep teaching the Word. Someone will take hold of it because there’s a connection between hearing and being healed.

Confession: As the Word becomes life and healing in me, I can teach others. The healing power of the Word works in all who hear.

God is the healer.  God is our Deliverer.  HE can and will move mountains IF you let him.  I believe what the Bible says.  And one scripture says to "Believe in Me and be saved".  That does not just pertain to salvation, but I believe it also pertains to HEALING.

TODAY if you are sick in body, mind, soul, or spirit, reach out to Him and call on Him and be healed.  I was and AM!
