It is amazing how quickly the enemy can come and steal a miracle out of the life of a child of God that lets down their guard for just a second. Last week, the Lord did a marvelous miracle for me, healing my spine, removing the tumors from my vertebrae, correcting the issues with my discs, and within hours, the enemy was on my doorstep, waiting to rob me of the power of God. I am almost ashamed to admit that I allowed him to come in and take an awesome moment and turn it into a time of great fear. Along with the miraculous news that I received, I also received the news that there will be more testing, more blood work, more procedures to try to determine what is wrong, and I found myself in a place of great despair. All I could see that I had no answers, and the enemy took advantage of my weakness to whisper those words of discouragement, telling me that it is over, that God has forsaken me and I will never be whole. I was in such a place that I couldnt read the word of God, I couldnt approach the throne of God, and I couldnt believe for that miracle that I have been waiting for so many years. This morning, in Sunday School, the word of God came forth with power. The Lord ordained that message for this day, the message that discouragement comes, but it doesnt have to stay. Then the choir sang a song that had been rolling over and over in my spirit, simply saying, be still and I know I am God. The message came forth, proclaiming from the word of God once again to pray again, and again. Keep believing, keep trusting, keep moving in, keep believing. This evening, as I was worshiping the Lord, a sweet sister put her hands on my shoulders and prayed. I went to the altar where the presence of the Lord was so powerful, and two sisters came and prayed, praying exactly what I needed to receive without ever even knowing how the enemy had brought me to a place of near defeat. I can say with sweet assurance tonight that the Lord has restored the strength in my spirit to keep pressing on. He has calmed my heart, and I once again feel peace. I am so thankful that I can keep going and keep asking and he will never get tired of me. One day, I dont know when, I dont know how, but one day, I am going to receive that healing long awaited, and until then, I am going to keep going, praising him for every good moment, praising him for every time he gives me strength, and praising him for what is to come. In whatever state I am in, he is worthy, worthy, worthy. Oh how I love the Lord.
