A Reflection by a Charis Second Year Student on mission.
God's Healing is within you!
In 2017 I was diagnosed with ME. Which made me desperate to learn how to receive healing.
With my ability to read diminished, I listened to lots of teachings from Charis Bible College; it was far better than any secular television!
And in my search for healing, the Lord showed me a better way to pray.
To be precise, God showed me that He had already put healing inside my spirit. I began to realise that I didn’t need to pray for healing because He had already given me health and vitality in my spirit. I just needed to know how to release it.
It was great news to discover that God had given me everything I needed already! And, what is more, God has given YOU all YOU need too!!
That means with His Holy Spirit inside you, you can win every challenge you face.
So how do we draw the healing in our spirit out into our bodies?
How do we make it available?
I asked the Lord the same question and the answer I got was:
"You need to keep renewing your mind to the truth of the Word."
I needed to spend time with the Bible, meditate on its truth, pray over it, and think about it.
And then I needed to speak it out so that my words matched the truth and didn’t undermine it.
And yes, it works!
I see fruit now in my life and not just healing.
I see a great change in how I react to challenging situations.
I don’t freak out or hide under the duvet when unexpected things happen.
Things don’t appear as threatening as they used to do.
I know the Lord is with me and FOR me. Always.
And the healing?
It’s in progress. I see a big change from where I was just two years ago to where I am today. I have more strength, a better memory, no more pains during the night, and I don’t need to rest for days after being active.
Hallelujah!
