God’s Elbow
Submitted annonomously
I have always been intrigued by the healing power of God. Not that I was or am any kind of expert, but the healing stories always grabbed my attention.
Quite a few years ago now, while attending another church, I started getting this feeling that I should pray for healing for a certain man in the congregation. I thought this was silly his wife had cancer, why should I pray for his healing?
But God is persistent. He kept nudging me to pray for this man. The feeling, the nudging, was getting more and more urgent as I tried to ignore it. Finally I went to the Pastor, and told him what was going on. He assured me that the couple in question would be open to healing prayer.
We set up a small healing service. Then I found out why I needed to pray for him. He had severe back pain that none of the doctors he’d seen had been able to do anything about.
Within a few weeks of the healing service, He found a doctor who said he could fix it. And he did.
Listen to God, He knows what He’s doing, and His elbows can get very sharp.
