How God Heals

People often ask "Does God heal today?"

Of course I believe He does!

The question most have is this: "How does God heal, when He decides to heal us?" This is really a great question.

This question is perhaps the oldest question in the history of mankind. Even in the ancient book of JOB - we see a famous story of one great man's struggle to trust the Lord during a long period of sickness and loss.

People say "Job lost everything!"

Well, no he didn't. He didn't lose his faith in God. 

And thankfully for Job, he didn't lose his wife, or his life.

But at times, his sickness was so severe, that he wished he would have died. Have you ever been so depressed about your struggles, that you hoped for a final death just to put an and to suffering?

Needless suffering it would seem?

And then to add insult to injury - Job had to put up with the cruel, judgmental comments from his best "friends" who had forgotten what it was like to be in a hard time of life. 

This episode isn't just about Job, its really about Jesus and how he heals, and James who gives us a great "recipe" for instant healing.

It would seem so. But ah, there is another aspect of God's ways that sometimes comes into play here.

We all want this life to be great.

But think about it. Is THIS PRESENT LIFE all there is? if so, we could understand the panic and striving to get over all pain suffering and sickness.

Job asked God "why" many times. 

But soon, Job began to realize that it isn't THIS LIFE that is really all that important... but the NEXT LIFE - ETERNAL LIFE IN HEAVEN!

Thanks again for listening!
