Subject: doctor's Words
> Rhonda and others,

> Several years ago, when Sandy learned she had a malignant melanoma, and I
> have probably told this more than once on here, the Lord spoke to me very
> clearly one night. Sandy had told me about this growth on her upper arm
> and
> how it had changed shape. We both immediately wondered if the news was
> bad.
> That night, I sat in my office listening to the radio but doing more
> thinking about Sandy. I clearly heard the Holy Spirit say, "They will get
> it all the first time." I knew this meant it would be cancer but Jesus
> was
> saying they would get the cancer all the first time. they did, too. Yet,
> after they dug down and found a couple of nearby lymph nodes, and tested
> them and found the cancer had not reached beyond the growth on her arm,
> the
> doctor still recommended we go to the Oncologist, or cancer specialist.
> We
> did. His words, although spoken kindly, softly, but directly, pounded at
> me
> so ferociously, that night I could not go to our Wednesday church service.
> Sandy went but I sat out on our back step with the dogs and just sat as if
> my very life was draining out of me. We didn't have a deck then so I was
> sitting on this little wooden step as the dogs played around me in the dog
> run. I didn't cry but I felt crushed flat. I felt as if no life were in
> me. Yet, in my heart, I knew what God had told me. The doctor's words,
> regardless of how they were spoken, was used by the Enemy to try and
> destroy
> my confidence in God. It wasn't my faith at work that night because I
> felt
> defeated but in my heart, I still believed what I heard was the Words of
> God. Yet, the words of man tried to pound me into the ground. That's
> what
> is happening to you, Rhonda, now. I can't make things better for you or
> even tell you anything to make you feel better. I can pray, which I will
> do, but when it comes to the gift of healing or the gift of faith, I don't
> have those. I wish I did. I'm even teaching on them in our church
> meeting
> right now. I want you to remember, however, the man who came to Jesus and
> said his 12 year old daughter lay dying. He asked for Jesus to come and
> heal her and Jesus said that he would. The woman with an issue of blood
> for
> 12 years came, as he walked with the crowd, and touched the hem of his
> garment and was instantly healed. Remember? Right about this time, a
> servant came and said, Trouble not the Master for your daughter is dead.
> Did you hear it, Rhonda. A servant came and said, he said, not Jesus, he
> said the man's daughter was dead. Jesus said, Do not be afraid only
> believe. The Enemy is lying to you right now, Rhonda, but be not afraid,
> only believe. It is your heart that believes. You don't need faith but
> you
> only need to believe. The 12 year old girl was dead but she didn't stay
> that way. don't believe what the doctor's say, Rhonda, no matter how true
> it sounds. Just believe the Word of God.
