Partial healing, demons and prayers...

[Hope321]

Hi, this is my first post on this forum.

I could do with advice please as a new(ish) Christian. I'll cut a long story short. I believe strongly in God's healing power. I have a condition in the bone which is hard to treat or get help for. This started a couple of years ago and I lost my job because of it. Last year I was water baptised, a great day. Two weeks leading up to the baptism demons started manifesting and tormenting me! Then something incredible.... the day after the baptism I woke up without any pain and felt OK for the first time in ages. I was ecstatic as I'd been praying for healing and thanked the Lord.

However, the demons started manifesting and hassling me again. I stood against them using tips I'd read in a book and then some advice from a deliverance minister and they eventually subsided. This experience really built my faith. But it weakened me physically. Since then it's been a rollercoaster of emotions and sickness. So now I know about God's healing power, I can't understand why I'm worse than ever.

I've received lots of prayer, including deliverance, I've stood on God's word, I've been to healing services, I've even pleaded! A Christian I know said I should not keep seeking healing and prayer (?) and that I am getting in God's way by trying to 'fix' things myself. Others said 'be persistent, wrestle with the Lord and it will come', or 'don't keep praying for the same thing, he heard you the first time', etc etc. I'm so confused.

All I can say is that this condition is evil, progressive, and the pain is starting to get so severe I seriously don't know how much more I can take. And I have kids to support.

Any thoughts appreciated on what has happened here ...
