It's Not There!!! It Is Gone!!

Matthew 8:3
Jesus reached out and touched him. "I am willing, " He said. "Be healed!"........

She had received the word that everyone dreads to hear....."Cancer".
Plans to start the tests....
Doctor's huddled to decide on which direction they needed to take in order to save this young girl. They brought to bear the resources of a great hospital in order to fight this battle.


On the other hand....
Word was passed of the fate of this young girl....
Person to person...
Church to church...
The Body of Christ was also huddled, but not to plan a strategy on how to fight this disease, but rather to go before the only One who possessed the Authority and Power to strike down this cancer.

Biopsies were done...
Laboratories worked to define the type of cancer.
Prayers went up on her behalf for healing.
Papers were filled out and doctor's orders compiled.
The Spirit of God moved on people to intercede on her behalf.
Medicines were readied and put in place.
A medical invasion was standing ready to enter her body, but before this took place, the Holy Spirit of God had already invaded.


Last week after the Bible study @ Rapha, Tracy Lovern (counselor) came up and asked if we could pray for his niece. She had been diagnosed with a very aggressive form of cancer and the outlook was not good. There in the chapel, Tracy and I prayed for her healing. We added our prayers to countless others that were being lifted to God on this young girls behalf. 

Last night, Tracy shared that she'd had some additional test run to finalize the treatment plan.
The cancer was gone.
Vanished...
Not there...
Of course the doctor's were amazed...at least some of them were. 

But we know what really happened.
A healing took place.


So this morning, I celebrate the goodness of God and His Kingdom that has invaded our time and space.
I rest in the knowledge and understanding that what we have seen of His Kingdom is not the fullness of it. That such will come at a later time designated by Him.
A time when all sickness will be eradicated.
A time when death will be no more.
He personally will wipe the tears from every crying person and we shall see as never before the reality of who this God truly is.

There will be no more pain...
There will be no more sorrow....
And we will rejoice like it's nobodies business.
Maranatha, Lord Jesus!!

Come Quickly!!

God on you...

p.s.
Keep praying for this young girl as she regains her strength...
