June is Practical Faith Month.
Last Tuesday I was in Los Angeles visiting family. The day Mike and I arrived I was experiencing severe abdominal pain. It lasted for several days. It was so painful on Tuesday, I almost went to the ER. I decided to wait it out and as the week progressed the pain decreased.
This is my account of what a life of faith looks like in the real.
I know so many people who are battling cancer and disease right now. I try very hard to refrain from partnering with fear. But facing significant pain in one area of my abdomen, created a scare within. The “C” word.
I decided to wait to return to No Cal as I had a standing appointment with my physician the next Tuesday. So I had to face down my fears. Every. Single Day. I said to myself that I am living in divine health. I prayed and ask Jesus for healing. I prayed and rebuked fear and would literally say, “I will not partner with fear.”
My appointment with my physician on Tuesday set off a battery of tests, X-ray and a CT scan.
And in the middle of all of this my doggie, Gracie, severely hurt her back. A Vet ER visit, tests and medication. Poor thing is in so much pain; she won’t stand up by herself.
So, in chaos and fear what is a woman of faith to do? I pray. I believe. I fight against fear and coming into agreement with disease and pain. For both me and my pup. BTW, Jesus loves it when we pray for our pets.
The message I relied on was this; I heard a pastor once say that when you are at high levels of faith, disease is defeated. I stood on this truth. I trusted.
Today, I’m waiting for some of the results of my scans. However, much of the blood work results reflect that I am completely healthy. Probably healthier than my eating habits would reflect.
Gracie, is crate bound but she is eating. Hallelujah.
My friend, this is my living example of how a life of prayer and faith have protected me. Over and over again.
I fall on my knees with such thankfulness. Jesus, is our healer.. His truth, His blood, His name are our healing and the defeat of disease, disaster and more.
The devil tries to hit me every year about this time. But each year, I arise. I will NOT stop praying for my family. I will not stop my ministry prayer with others. I will write books that lead people to greater faith levels.
And you, my friend, if you have read this far, you are also one who lives in great “faith levels.” Stand tall. Arise with every blow and allow the glory of our King Jesus to be seen in you and around you.
If you or someone you know is facing health issues, leave a name or a condition. I will pray. You will pray. Then you can write me when Jesus shows up.
I love you, Lynn
