Patient in Affliction: 5 Ways to Wait Well Today

I think you’ll agree that being patient in your affliction is challenging, especially if illness has continued for many years.

With God, how you wait matters and how you occupy this waiting time is significant.

So today, I’m going to show you the 5 ways I introduced some kind of joy back into my life so I could be patient in the affliction.

You don’t want to prolong this painful season more than is necessary so I invite you through this post to invest in good waiting habits that glorify God, ease frustration and invite transformation.

Job’s Three Friends. 5 Ways to Deal with Them

Today we consider Job’s infamous three friends; (let’s face it, we’ve all got them.)

You know, those ‘helpful’ Christians who tell you what you’ve done wrong in your life to cause suffering.

I will offer a deeper perspective as to why they behave in that way, and suggest 5 steps you can implement to guard your heart from their hurtful comments.

I had a woman in my life, who screened me for all my ‘shortcomings’. In her opinion, healing and obedience go hand in hand. ‘If God’s perfect, the problem is with you…’

It was wounding.

Job’s Healing: Was God Responsible for Job’s Pain?

Today’s post is about Job’s healing.

Have you turned to the book of Job for guidance in your journey? It’s a difficult book to read and easy to misunderstand. I hope this post will explain things a little for you.

I’m going to give you 5 lessons from the book of Job fundamental to your healing journey. I also include the truth behind a couple of myths that you may be believing.

So if you’re concerned that God is granting permission to the devil to attack you or that He is ready and waiting to take your life away, then you can relax.

These are erroneous teachings, taken from those who misunderstand what the book of Job is all about.

So let’s get started:

The Enemy Comes to Kill, Steal and Destroy…..

Today we look at the God’s perfect description of sickness, found in John 10:10: It is your enemy and has the sole purpose to kill, steal and destroy.

Do you feel robbed? This verse shows us that God is not the author of your suffering.

By reading this post, you’ll gain an understanding of the three descriptions that God gives sickness which will feed your faith for healing and eliminate any doubt that God wants you well.

Otherwise, you’ll believe one of the many myths: that God is waiting for you to deal with something…..God is teaching you a lesson or chastising you…etc’.

Thorn in the Flesh: The Biblical Meaning of a Thorn

Today I wanted to share with you some teaching on the meaning of Paul’s thorn in the Flesh. The number of times I hear people assume that Paul had a sickness that God wouldn’t heal.

Today I prove, using the Bible, that this is inaccurate.

Paul’s thorn in the flesh was a person and not any kind of illness or disability.

If you think the meaning of Paul’s thorn in the flesh refers to sickness, you will always doubt God for your healing.

You probably wish ‘if only I could reach out and touch the hem of Jesus’ garment, then I would be miraculously healed’!

Today we look at the significance of the hem of Jesus’ garment and the secret meaning that lies within it. (You’ll never read this passage of Scripture in the same way again.)

In this post I reveal 4 tips based on the meaning of the hem of Jesus’ garment that we can apply to our healing journey.

You see, metaphorically speaking, the hem of Jesus’ garment is still healing today.

Here’s how:

3 Reasons God’s Ways are not Our Ways

Today we’re going to look at how God’s ways are not our ways when it comes to healing.

I’m going to debunk 3 common myths Christians often believe when it comes the healing. By reading this post, you’ll find a greater freedom because lies always keep us limited and bound.

Have you ever thought ‘God won’t heal me now because I’ve made too many mistakes…..God is more likely to heal the super spiritual…..My illness is minor compared to others….’

Oftentimes we confuse human nature with God’s, or we try and second guess him, but the Bible tells us His ways and thoughts are so much higher than ours.

5 Easy Ways to Build Stronger Faith for Healing

Few people had faith stronger than the woman with the issue of blood; Jesus said “Daughter your faith has healed you”.

Today we’re going to look at 3 different types of faith so you can see which one you identify with:

The 5 Greatest Reasons to Share Your Testimony

Today we learn the biblical definition of the word ‘testimony’ (and it’s probably not what you think.) Plus the 5 best reasons to share your testimony today.

Do you need a miracle healing? The key to your breakthrough may very well be in the mouth of someone else.

Someone’s healing depends on what you carry. Your Testimony:

Is prophetic and powerful
Spurs on faith
Heals loneliness
Points people to Jesus
Creates a ripple effect

If the woman with the issue of blood needed to hear about Jesus (aka someone’s healing testimony), in order to receive healing, then the same is true of us.

And, we all love a good story.

When I taught Nursery aged children, I always read a Bible story on a Friday. The children would listen attentively with their jaws open wide, savouring every word from the Children’s Bible.

What is more exciting than a man who ends up in the tummy of a fish or in the lion’s den? Our testimonies point people to the wonder and amazement of our Father who longs for people to see his miraculousness.

Testimonies are real life stories of God’s goodness; so much better than Holywood!
