Root cause

I just felt I should share this here, I posted it in another thread.

It is about what I think was a root cause of why I wasn't receiving healing for an injury until I got to the root cause.


I was prayed for numerous times for a very painful case of tennis elbow, I got temporary relief a few times but it wouldn't stay.
I went to a conferrence where they pray for healings first shouting out words of knowledge.
A word was given about someone with a problem on the outside of the left ear, I had this but didn't respond at the time.
As a result of the elbow I went to the doctor, while there I had the ear checked and as a result had to go back to have some suspect skin burned off before it developed skin cancer.
I realized I probably would not have gone to the doctor if the elbow was fine.
When I acknowledged this I felt a great joy in my spirit, as if I was being told I got it right.
Anyway I suffered with a very painful elbow for months , as soon as the ear was treated the elbow healed.
I feel there maybe all sorts of root causes.

I am still learning , and always like to hear of others testimonies to help me understand more.
I know there is so much more to learn.

Hi Alan.. I just came by to tell you I read your message. I don't have any comments though!!

But I did notice that in my daughter when I prayed a few times.. she did not heal.. but when I regularly prayed a few times a day.. more persistantly.. and laid hands on her for healing.. she is beginning to heal!! It has not happened straight away.. seems to be a more gradual healing.. but she is healing.. Sometimes I am finding.. that we need to keep praying it through.. and pray not only consistantly but a few times a day!!

I feel just as there are no set methods of praying, there are also so many other things involved.
Sorry , not a great explanation.

Hi Alan I am just glad you are here on healing ministry..

I am glad that JESUS is the same yesterday, today and forever.. He used different methods to heal people too..

Finding the cause is very important step in prayer for a healing. A cause can be actually spiritual rather than physical. Just like Jesus rebuked some demons in the Bible.

Some conditions can be because of one's unforgiveness, so prayers by other people wouldn't do a thing. In other cases, for example, a curse by something or someone can cause a disease. So, exercising the word of knowledge and other gifts of the Spirit is very important.

Yes, there's so much we still have to learn. There is scripture to support what you're saying. I'll try to find it the next day or two - got to get a couple of things done first.

Alan - thanks for posting your testimony - that's great!

Sorry Alan.. I am glad you got healed.. I didn't remember to say that..
