1 | claiming things in your life | Is 53:5 | Praise Be To God | 135909 | ||
I disagree. You are not giving God credit for divine healing, which can be claimed through this scripture. Also, we are to decree, declare and proclaim God's Word. God's Word. Not just any words or anything we might desire. God's promises. God's Word is true, and everything else is subject to change by that Word. I live it every day. I want everything God has for me. I take offense that you think I belong to the false teaching of "name it and claim it." Far from it. I claim the promises God has for me (and everyone who believes) in His Word--one of which is divine healing. Pardon the personal illustration, but I speak from experience. The doctor told me I had arthritis and last year, I had a couple of bad spells where I could not even walk. However, a couple of months ago I got prayed for and God healed me. He took away that arthritis, and all the pain that went with it. I was in terrible pain prior to being prayed for, and walked with a pronounced limp--but ever since that prayer, I have had pain just one time, and that was Satan trying to make me claim that arthritis back into my life. But, I didn't listen to him. I continued to claim my healing and to this day, I have been pain free and I walk without a limp now. I would be interested to know the denomination to which you belong. Have you seen the dead raised to life? My friend is a missionary and she has seen it. Also, a pastor friend of mine has seen it. I have not seen it, but I believe it. How about you? Do you belive the physically dead can be raised to life? | ||||||
2 | claiming things in your life | Is 53:5 | EdB | 135911 | ||
Praise Be To God I don't think anyone is denying divine healing. What is being denied is that we through our words speak things into existence. Words are powerful but only God has the power to speak things into existence. Now we can psychologically bring things into existence in our bodies but no amount of positive confession will stop the sun from moving. Unless God deems the sun will stop I assure you the sun will continue until Jesus' return. As for your healing, praise God your healed. However I assure you had God had another purpose for you to be afflicted you would still be afflicted. That is the point everyone is missing God’s word says all things are for the good of those that love the Lord and are called to his purpose. We have to trust in God no matter if we are sick or whole, rich or poor, on the way up or on the way down (as in success). As for resurrections let me ask you two questions, if you were dead and on your way to heaven would you want anyone to bring you back? If God calls someone home do you really believe we can over rule God and call them back? Does a resurrection of a dead person prove we can speak things into existence or does it prove God sometimes displays his power in awesome ways? There have been a lot of dead people prayed for that are still dead. EdB |

We pray and ask God to bring them back, and if it is His will, he brings them back. I don't know why you are attacking me. I don't do the work--God does it, if it is His will. Seems to me we are saying the same thing in a different way. | ||||||

Praise Be To God I'm not attacking you! I'm explaining to you that as you say God's will controls the situation not us, not our words. There is a false teaching out there that basically says if we have enough faith and speak something into existence God had to make it happen. The truth of the matter is exactly like you said "if it is God's 'will' it will happen." EdB |

Whew! For a minute there, I thought you thought I was one of those who subscribe to "name it and claim it". As I said, I have heard of that false theology, but never really knew exactly what it was before, except for what the name brings to mind. That's bizarre. That is denying the One True God and making yourself into a god. Janae |

Janae That's bizarre. That is denying the One True God and making yourself into a god. Exactly!!!!! Unfortunately this is becoming rampant in the church today. It is attacking nearly every denomination and any size church large or small. People are attracted to messages that ‘empower’ them so many in the pulpit are using this message in one form or another in an attempt to build churches. I’m glad we have finally understood each other. Be blessed and be a blessing EdB |
