Labourers with God.
A Brother in Christ wrote the following line on my Facebook site: "I remember reading your testimony about the miracles of healing you've received before....I think we would be right to expect another miracle, don't you?"
My reply is below.
Certainly, Brother.
I was healed already somewhere in February of this year, as I wrote this on my BlogSpot website. But the "eye" had to see it yet. My physical condition has been excellent ever since. Never felt sick, never stayed in bed, even after each surgery I immediately continued with my family duties and my Ministry. And the three surgeries took between 1 and 1 1/2 hr each. So it was more than just cutting finger nails.
Even on this, one could conclude that I was already made whole by the FATHER.
I even told the oncologist that I was going to ride my motorbike the day after my first surgery. Perhaps he thought I was joking, but I was NOT. He may not even belief I had a motorbike at 73 years old. LOL. I rode my bike the next day.
This cancer issue NEVER stopped me from my daily work. Yes, you are correct, we are expecting miracles. Please, consider that every experience is different, and every sickness or problem needs to be conquered individually. We need to learn to become more persistent in believing God's promises. Each battle comes from a different angle, and one does not know the "core" of the battle until he/she gets truly involved (applying God's word). We know that God's promises are true and He will do according to His word... but nothing comes by itself and nothing comes easy, because we are still learning.
The Lord wants His children to use their spiritual muscles to fight and to conquer. This is what makes us strong in faith and strong to help others in time of need. Whatever happens to His children, God will use it to "train" them.
Nothing in life is easy, even coming out of bed in the morning can cause an ugly mood, if one went too late to bed. Do you see the "picture"? Things need to be worked out. The lives of the Apostles were far from pleasant since they had lots of opposition. Daniel thought that he could get away with praying out loud with the windows open, (remember) while there was a decree out that the people should not pray for a certain time. He never expected to be thrown in the lions' den. But he did! At that point Daniel had to start exercising his trust in God, because God was not going to do this alone. Faith moves mountains you know, and it will certainly close the mouth of a lion.
God allows us to get in situations to see our reaction, at least to see how we trust Him and to "train" His children. He provides the opportunities for us to exercise our faith. Similar to a father who makes his child run after a ball, to develop the leg muscles.
Here comes in the scripture, "For we are labourers (co-workers) together with God: ye are God's husbandry, ye are God's building." 1 Cor 3:9
Followers of Christ are NO puppets.
God delights in our fellowship and desires to have us join Him in His work, even in receiving our personal healing.
May God bless His Co-Workers.
PRAISE HIS NAME!

Did God sent an angel?
When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee. Isaiah 43:2
Thank God for His awesome deeds and His goodness unto mankind. I did experience His touch yesterday when I was in Kingston General Hospital where I underwent an 1 1/2 hr surgery in preparation for a preventative cancer treatment, which I will undergo during all of next week.
Due to the lack of an available surgery room they brought me into a partially equiped room to do the surgery under local anesthetic. I better don't go into detail, but I had to assist the surgeon to change the direction of his surgery tool, since he came into a spot slightly outside the allocated area... hmmm.. It was not all without pain. I am pretty tough and didn't want to stir up any commotion. Nevertheless, he did an excelent job, doing this surgery. Four nurses and another female doctor assisted the surgeon. This was rather a complicated operation. This type of surgery was never ever done in this hospital, and needed specific equipment which was brought in from elsewhere. The surgeon who undertook this task had practised this in hospitals where he worked previously.
Please, take note of the following... Before my surgery I was in a small waiting room in a hospital gown, where also other patients, in hospital gowns, were waiting for treatment. After a while the only ones left in the waiting room was a young mother with two little boys, about 1 1/2 and 3 years old and myself.
The oldest boy came my way from time to time, he showed me his toy monkey... then came by again and waved his hand and I waved back. He came by many times always talking and looking at me throwing hand kisses etc.
Was I a stranger to him? Maybe not!
He came by and touched me gently on my hand and I touched him back. This went on for some time. He was well mannered, had lovely deep blue eyes and a smile. He seemed to be mature for his age. I observed the child and I noticed how gentle and caring he was with his younger brother. I did find him a very special little boy.
He brought his monkey to me again and put the monkey's hand in mine, for me to say hello to his toy friend. When he left some more hand kisses came my way and I returned some to him.
At one point I was bent over a little to pull up my socks. Unnoticed to me this little boy stood right in front of me, and when I lifted my head a bit we stared in each other's eyes. Not a word was exchanged when he put his little hands on my cheeks, holding my face for a while. He stared deeply into my eyes and very slowly let his hands slide down my face until they landed on my lap, still not a word was exchanged.
It was as if he wanted to tell me something like "You will be alright, you will be fine." I was moved and greatly touched by God through this little boy's action. I heard His message clear and loud. Would my heavenly Father have sent this little angel? I certainly believe He did. I actually knew God guided this boy my way.
He left as fast as he had come and I whispered: "God blessed you, child."
After I went through the mentioned surgery, I knew that the Lord did sent this boy for a special purpose, holding my face in his little hands.
Later on the mother and the two boys were called into the Dr's office. I learned from his grandmother, who was with them as well, that the little boy was treated for cancer and now came back for a check up. "George" as he called the bandage, was going to be taken off.
This little boy did not realize that he had cancer, of course he did not know what was awaiting me. I took his gesture very serious and knew that God had sent this little boy on my path.
Our Father has mysterious ways to speak to His children, but this was a very unusual experience for me. God is ALIVE for sure and He will meet every one of our needs, if our heart trust in Him. Amen!
But Thou, O LORD, art a shield for me; my glory, and the Lifter up of mine head. Psalm 3:3
I praise the name of the Lord, for ever. AMEN!
