61 | Peace with Cancer | Phil 4:7 | prazn | 87981 | ||
Please don't allow doubt and unbelief to keep you and/or your friend from believing that our Lord is able to heal whomever he pleases, whenever He pleases. The Lord God Almighty (Jehova Rophe: my Healer) is able to heal your friend!!! Mark 6:1, records that Jesus went to His own hometown, where the people doubted His ability to heal. Verses 5-6 record, "And He could do no miracle there except that He laid His hands on a few sick people and healed them. And He wondered at their unbelief." Do you recall that David (the man after God's own heart) fasted and prayed for his dying son (the son who was born to him through his affair with Bathsheba)? In 2 Samuel 12:22 David explains, "While the child was still alive, I fasted and wept; for I said 'Who knows, the Lord may be gracious to me, that the child may live'" What harm can come from believing for your friend and encouraging him to believe, as well. The Word of God tells us: "without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is and that He is a rewarder of those who seek Him." Hebrews 11:6 "...let him ask of God, who gives to all generously and without reproach, and it will be given to him. But he must ask in faith without any doubting," James 1:5-6 "Now to Him who is able to do far more abundantly beyond all that we ask or think, according to the power that works within us, to Him be the glory in the church and in Christ Jesus to all generations forever and ever. Amen." Eph. 3:20-21 Keep the faith!!! prazn |

62 | Peace with Cancer | Phil 4:7 | prazn | 88040 | ||
What is the harm in believing that the Lord is able to heal and is willing to heal? I don't understand how a child of God could ever lose hope in Jesus. There is a girl in my church who received a "bad" report from her doctor (i.e., cancer). She doesn't even look 30 years old, yet. She immediately went to the Lord, in prayer, and asked for His diagnosis. He told her that she would be o.k. So, rejecting her first doctor's report, she sought a second opinion. The second doctor could find no trace of cancer in her body. Was the first diagnosis wrong? Or, was she miraculously healed by the time that she went to the second doctor? God only knows! We must keep our "eyes" on Jesus. And, unless He tells us that He is not willing to heal us (as He did with the apostle Paul) continue to fight the "good fight of faith" and believe that He will heal us. "Nothing shall be impossible for him who believes." God bless you! prazn |

63 | Peace with Cancer | Phil 4:7 | prazn | 88244 | ||
It was never my intention to imply that our Lord is a "Sugar Daddy". The Lord cannot be manipulated by anyone. However, why not ask the Lord for healing? He may very well be willing to heal. He is certainly "able"! The Lord's will cannot be activated (i.e., manifested) in the earth except by the prayers of the saints. Wouldn't it be a shame to die, needlessly (before our appointed time) because we never exercised our faith in the Lord? Yes, we may be present with the Lord, following your physical death. But, what about the "work" that the Lord may have planned to continue doing in us and through us. The Lord is always growing us in our faith. Why would Jesus tells us that if we had faith to tell a mountain to be removed, that it would be cast into the sea? Why is faith such an important key to living this life on earth? Because we have a very real enemy, who seeks to "steal, kill and destroy". Why roll over for a defeated foe? The Lord does not cause our illnesses; our sins and the devil cause us to experience poor health! And, though He does not cause it, the Lord will use illness to grow our faith in Him!!! Eph 6:10 Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of His might. Eph 6:11 Put on the full armor of God, so that you will be able to stand firm against the schemes of the devil. Eph 6:12 For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the powers, against the world forces of this darkness, against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places. Eph 6:13 Therefore, take up the full armor of God, so that you will be able to resist in the evil day, and having done everything, to stand firm. Eph 6:14 Stand firm therefore, HAVING GIRDED YOUR LOINS WITH TRUTH, and HAVING PUT ON THE BREASTPLATE OF RIGHTEOUSNESS, Eph 6:15 and having shod YOUR FEET WITH THE PREPARATION OF THE GOSPEL OF PEACE; Eph 6:16 in addition to all, taking up the shield of faith with which you will be able to extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. Eph 6:17 And take THE HELMET OF SALVATION, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. Eph 6:18 With all prayer and petition pray at all times in the Spirit, and with this in view, be on the alert with all perseverance and petition for all the saints, Peace! prazn |

A NOTE OF ENCOURAGEMENT: Matt 7:7 "Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. Matt 7:8 "For everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened." It is troubling to see questions left unanswered for days, in this forum. Like the man waiting at the pool of Bethesda for the waters to be stirred (John 5:2-7), someone is waiting to read the answer that will satisfy their soul. There are so many resources available to believers with a sincere desire to read and understand the word of God. Please don't limit yourself to this forum. If you don't get a satisfactory answer in this forum, "keep knocking". Check out the many other resources that are available to you, maybe even in your own home. Our Lord is faithful. Pray to Him and ask Him to reveal the answers you seek. The door will be opened to you. God bless you! |

2 Tim 3:1 But realize this, that in the last days difficult times will come. 2 Tim 3:2 For men will be lovers of self, lovers of money, boastful, arrogant, revilers, disobedient to parents, ungrateful, unholy, 2 Tim 3:3 unloving, irreconcilable, malicious gossips, without self-control, brutal, haters of good, 2 Tim 3:4 treacherous, reckless, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, 2 Tim 3:5 holding to a form of godliness, although they have denied its power; Avoid such men as these. 2 Tim 3:6 For among them are those who enter into households and captivate weak women weighed down with sins, led on by various impulses, 2 Tim 3:7 always learning and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. |

68 | Part 2 Does God talk to you personally? | 2 Tim 3:16 | prazn | 85496 | ||
"My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me;" John 10:27 "the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it does not see Him or know Him, but you know Him because He abides with you and will be in you." John 14:17 "When the Helper comes, whom I will send to you from the Father, that is the Spirit of truth who proceeds from the Father, He will testify about Me," John 15:26 "But when He, the Spirit of truth, comes, He will guide you into all the truth; for He will not speak on His own initiative, but whatever He hears, He will speak; and He will disclose to you what is to come." John 16:13 |

70 | Whose will causes a believer to sin? | Rev 13:8 | prazn | 88026 | ||
Forgive me, I haven't been following this strand, so my post may be repetitive or incongruent with the general pattern of thought. God's Word says: "...for it is God who is at work in you, both to will and to work for His good pleasure." -Phil 2:13 "...it [God's mercy] does not depend on the man who wills or the man who runs, but on God who has mercy. For the Scripture says to Pharaoh, "FOR THIS VERY PURPOSE I RAISED YOU UP, TO DEMONSTRATE MY POWER IN YOU, AND THAT MY NAME MIGHT BE PROCLAIMED THROUGHOUT THE WHOLE EARTH." So then He has mercy on whom He desires, and He hardens whom He desires. You will say to me then, "Why does He still find fault? For who resists His will?" On the contrary, who are you, O man, who answers back to God? The thing molded will not say to the molder, "Why did you make me like this," will it? Or does not the potter have a right over the clay, to make from the same lump one vessel for honorable use and another for common use? What if God, although willing to demonstrate His wrath and to make His power known, endured with much patience vessels of wrath prepared for destruction? And He did so to make known the riches of His glory upon vessels of mercy, which He prepared beforehand for glory, even us, whom He also called, not from among Jews only, but also from among Gentiles." -Romans 9:16-24 just food for thought, prazn |

72 | Release and Faith Question | Rev 22:18 | prazn | 91526 | ||
Hi RadioMan, What follows are a few scriptures which, I believe, support the Word of Faith teachings. Perhaps they will give us all a little more to ponder: Mark 11:22-24 And Jesus *answered saying to them, "Have faith in God. "Truly I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, 'Be taken up and cast into the sea,' and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that what he says is going to happen, it will be granted him. "Therefore I say to you, all things for which you pray and ask, believe that you have received them, and they will be granted you. Matt 17:15-20 "Lord, have mercy on my son, for he is a lunatic and is very ill; for he often falls into the fire and often into the water. "I brought him to Your disciples, and they could not cure him." And Jesus answered and said, "You unbelieving and perverted generation, how long shall I be with you? How long shall I put up with you? Bring him here to Me." And Jesus rebuked him, and the demon came out of him, and the boy was cured at once. Then the disciples came to Jesus privately and said, "Why could we not drive it out?" And He *said to them, "Because of the littleness of your faith; for truly I say to you, if you have faith the size of a mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, 'Move from here to there,' and it will move; and nothing will be impossible to you. John 15:7 "If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you." Matt 8:13 And Jesus said to the centurion, "Go; it shall be done for you as you have believed." And the servant was healed that very moment. Matt 15:28 Then Jesus said to her, "O woman, your faith is great; it shall be done for you as you wish." And her daughter was healed at once. Matt 18:19 "Again I say to you, that if two of you agree on earth about anything that they may ask, it shall be done for them by My Father who is in heaven. Blessings! prazn |
