MY TWO CENTS WORTH
By Myrtle Poor (c)
Hello from the Poor House and the water logged Sooner State. We are finally getting some sunshine. We have had storms and flash floods here for seems like forever. We are getting a breakthrough next week. If it keeps this up, we Okie's may be walking web footed pretty soon.
I have always thought I had a lot of faith, but being bed bound since the surgery on my leg last June has taught me a lot about faith I didn't realize before. Everyone has a measure of faith given to them by the Lord. I don't know what a measure is, but God gave us enough to get what we need in life from it. WE HAVE EVERYTHING WE NEED FROM GOD INSIDE OUR HEARTS.We have to remember that everyone has the same, a measure of faith.
God makes the difference and we have to praise Him for sure. I guess it also depends on what the person wants for their life. I had prayed for healing for so long, but I didn't understand just how to receive it. I prayed for healing, believed it and praised God for it, I would feel better for a little while, then in a few days I would become ill only more severely.
I kept asking God over and over to show me what I was doing wrong. It had to be me for God can't lie. What I didn't I understand "WAS, THAT I WAS ALREADY HEALED" and had been since the day Christ died on the cross. It was a gift from Him and it was mine already. He was standing there with His hands outstretched trying to hand it to me. All I had to do was figure out how to receive it. So why was I going around and around the bush about it? Think about it. God will not give you something you don't want.
I could believe God for many things. Things like getting a bill paid or something like that, but not enough to get the healing I so badly needed. I kept telling every one that God was going to heal me, (big mistake) huh-uh, believing like that is wrong. God wasn't going to heal me, not now, not ever. He already has and I am feeling wonderful. Saying things like that canceled out that fact. Another thing the Lord showed me I was doing was saying I have this disease and that disease. I was laying claim to the illness or diseases by claiming they. What you speak is what you get. That is a no-no. Praise the Lord for your healing. Remember what you say is what you get.
Praying for someone then saying, "If it is Your will heal them Lord." it has canceled out the healing you have just prayed for. Of course it is God's will to heal you, otherwise what did he take the stripes on his back for. If you pray that way then once again you are canceling out your prayer. An example of what I am saying is "I had two doughnuts and a diet coke for dinner today. Ahhhhhhhhhh makes sense doesn't it?
I started praying and studying about this when I had surgery on my leg and have been down for so long. Over and over I kept saying to the Lord what am I doing wrong? Why can't I receive the healing I need?
I just woke up a couple of weeks ago and the spirit spoke to me and said you can have a good day or a bad one, the choice is yours. You can choose to live or die it is as simple as that and guess what I chose? Indeed, I chose life.
"How?" you asked. Well let me tell you. I was praying that morning when the Holy Spirit moved on me. As you all know I had been down in the dumps for a couple of days for my leg had took a back set again. Satan was attacking me on all sides. I couldn't get out of bed to even use the bathroom and the walls were closing in on me. I didn't want to pray. I didn't want to do anything, but there was a tiny spark left in me that gave me the desire to rise again.
I had to take some down time. At first praying started slowly for I wasn't in the mood to do it, then after a couple days in prayer the Holy Spirit begin to anoint the prayer I was praying. After a certain time in prayer, I felt a weight lift from me, and I knew the exact minute I received a new spiritual attitude adjustment. Things became clear as to what I was I doing wrong. I was telling everybody I came in contact with how bad I felt.
The Holy Spirit said you are what you speak. If you want health and healing, speak health and healing, and then believe like you already have health and healing. Right there and then the Lord reprogrammed my mind computer. Things begin to change in me. I accepted the healing, and it is so interesting everyday to see what new things that choice has in store for me. I am slow as far as physical steps, for I am still bed bound, but in my mind I am walking. I am taking baby steps physically so to speak, but I walk 10 foot tall every day in a new spirituality. It is a great miracle that I feel much better physically and fantastic spiritually. Everyday since then, I can see myself growing in great leaps and bounds in my everyday healing process. Sometimes we need spiritual healing worse than we need physical healing.
Satan tries everyday to fill my mouth with negative words, but I have taken authority over him. I am walking in a new realm with God. THE HOLY SPIRIT SAYS TO SEEK THE HEALER INSTEAD OF THE HEALING! IT WORKS!!!!!!
This is my testimony and I hope it blesses someone. I am so excited about this new realm I am in with God. I thank Him for taking me through this valley I have just passed through. May God Bless each and everyone of you and thank you so much for praying for me. I LOVE YOU SOOOOOOOO MUCH.
