Faith vs. Foolishness... a warning!

Because occasionally someone does go off their meds in a genuine act of faith and is healed, and people try and live by testimony not by the Word.

I agree that many think taking no medicine means they are in faith. But most just suffer more.

Yesterday I woke up in pain, had a nap in the pm to shake it off and when I awoke I was in agony all down my back and legs. I never told anyone, just stood on the Word. I was tempted to go out and get some paracetamol (don't normally keep them in the house), but I resisted that temptation and stood on the Word.

Woke up this morning pain-free... praise the Lord!

That is why listening to our Lords direction for us in our circumstances is so important. How does the lady feel now is she well completely or back on her meds and stable?. You said she recovered when you prayed so I am curious. If she is in fact totally healed and no longer requiring heart meds then maybe what she did was correct. Just a thought. I try not to give folks advice about his sort of stuff one way or the other and usually refer them to their own medical doctor.

Like you I don't give advice, but I refer people to the Lord of the universe. Let Him tell you what to do.

He knows where your faith is.

I remember that story as well.

It is so true. You have to live by faith and faith doesn't come through testimonies but through the Word.

All good posts. I agree !00%

my pain came back today at 12noon, I stood on the Word, did all I knew how to do, and got nowhere. It was excruciating pain. I haven't been in pain like this for probably 15+ years.

At 4 while praying in tongues, I phoned up a deacon in the church and asked him to agree with me. He did so, and immediately at least 50% of the pain just went. It was awesome. He was stunned pastor called him and asked for prayer, but there you go.

The pain is now about 20% and I am pacing around the room quoting the Word. I am leading a Bible study tonight so it is important I can move and also talk without grimacing.

Praise the Lord my healing is here and it is manifesting. Jesus paid the full price for my complete healing 2000 years ago.

Also the guy who prayed with me was talking to some friends about divine healing today and lost a good friend for his stand, so to then see someone healed as he was praying I think was important for him.

The devil had intentions of evil, but God's intentions are for good.

Amen

Perhaps we should try faith for staying well as an antidote for faith to get healed

Great point, Tas!

Less spectacular, but far more supernatural!

Father i pray tonight that you work thru Ben, showing his congregation that you are greater than anything comming against us to hinder the word. Bless the preparation that he has done, and let your words of life flow thru him for healing and blessing, and let faith manifest itself in all hearers for your glory. in Christ's name I pray.

Thanks P.

We have a Bible study on Thursday, still not sure what I should do it on.

Nonsense. What an immature thing to say.

She was standing in faith for her healing. That is not insane.

Insane is not standing in faith for your healing.
