So lets stop here and allow for those who do not believe in these manifestations "for today" to hit the close button and "not sin" by controversy or argument. All that I write is true and I can't apologize nor disclaim what has happened in our lives because "someone else" hasn't experienced the same things.
Pretty much a list of most of what we have experienced is written on our blog jerroldcavasin.blogspot.com and at this time 292 entries, some about Elise as we journeyed through her affliction, but most about divine interventions, healing, casting out demons, and other signs and wonders. These are those that came to mind to write about, many are still not "set to pen" at this time, and if the Lord wills they will in the future.
So today's entry:
The 700 Club has been our "default" show for some time now, (they were around when we first received Christ) and at the end they would have prayer with a prophetic Word as to different types of healing/deliverance's that were taking place by the hand of God at the time of showing. It is expedient to mention "at the time of showing" because some of the shows are aired and re-aired at differing times but the Word of God is True, and if it is the Word of God then it will be equally powerful and effective each showing. I will interject again that whether or not you agree is your privilege and choice. Everything of God is by faith.
What I am going to do here is to exercise my faith as to what happened by "speaking it" to affirm what took place. Of course the "other" part of "believing and receiving" is the part where you get up and walk or do what is necessary to prove what has been done for you.
Last night Elise and I caught the end of the show during the prayer of faith. During the prayer of faith, with the Holy Spirit moving, Robertson said that everyone with a problem should place their hands on the area to receive healing. I did so with my knees as they are one of my "thorns" due to the abuse (my fault) that was common to the trade. As I did that he spoke a Word of Knowledge about someone who God was healing that had to very bad knees. I took that as including me so I said "I receive that Father according to your will". There was no shaking, warming, tingling, or any physical experience, (which does happen at times), but a sense of certainty in my spirit that God had met that need. After the program was over I got up from the couch without any resistance, stumbling or effort but a certain freedom that I had not had before. Today (the following morning) I walked down the outside stairs as normally as I did years ago without anything but a bit of apprehension (as I have had for years before because of them), and reached the bottom with praise and thanksgiving.
So far between the time of healing and the posting of this writing there has been many attacks on my spirit and mind as to whether or not healing actually happened, I say and claim that it has with rejoicing and will continue to "walk by faith" therein. Another note: when I was driving my car into Henderson to have it worked on I was in a humble state worshiping God with thanksgiving and weeping, rejoicing in God our Savior for His most excellent gifts. During that time I noticed an ease in my breathing that was not there before. Having worked in the so called "black smoke" industries, (blast furnaces, coke ovens, boilers, smelters, ect) this usually has a demising effect on the lungs and bronchial tubes. Do to the fact that there could be no other reason for this positive change, I took it as part of the blessing that came with worshiping God with deep humility. Another miracle.
Many Christians have there own thoughts on how God works in situations that are out of our hands such as mentioned above. So do I. One thing God has taught me threw this affliction with Elise is that He does things His way. Period. Whether we understand them or not. Prayer has been answered for people in a "death coma"with no more guidance than someone asking for it to be done. Sometimes there is a "Word from the Lord" prompting the prayer to be made. There can be a 100 different ways for God to get our attention to "get the job done", but the key is to be sensitive to the wee small voice and then obey. You will never "miss the mark" if you are "praying without ceasing" looking to "glorify your Father in Heaven."
So now an update on the last visit Elise had to the neurologist. MRI shows no new or noticeable regrowth in comparison to the MRI taken before this one 3+ months ago. There still is a lot going on with her meds and weaning her off them as soon as it is safe to do so is our new priority. Prayer still needed to finish the med/doc applications. "He whom the Son sets free is free indeed."
Love to all with grace and peace through God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
Love
Jerry and Elise
