Yesterday, in my thank you letter for your prayers enabling me to get out of the hospital, a question was raised in our Lord's brief message
about what God does and does not do. As I have learned to do, when a question arises, I just ask Jesus for further explanation about what He said.
I would suggest you do the same if you have not been doing so. Here is yesterday' message plus my question and His response:
3-27-12 Here is the brief word I received today from our wonderful Lord Jesus for those whom I asked to pray for me:
My beloved children. It is My desire that each of you spend time with Me. I want you to support one another as the needs arise.As you can see, your corporate prayers have enabled Me to bring needed healing into My servant Ben's body. Spending time with Me also enables Me to pour out My blessings upon each one of you.
3-28-12 Jesus, Your statement about corporate prayer concerns me. There are all the major physical needs that I and others have that need Your special touch. Lord, I do not know believers who exhibit faith to this extent. As others have said, You can do anything - or can you?
No, Ben, I cannot do everything. For one, I cannot lie. I cannot force someone to love Me. That which is outside of My nature I cannot and will not do. When it comes to healing, there are times when I look to corporate prayer to bring about that which I desire. In your recent event, I am wanting My people to come to Me in behalf of others. I want all of My children to look beyond themselves and bless others. In turn, I will bless them. Another point on healing. There are times when I directly touch you and others. You have experienced this is in the past. Do not make a pattern that says you need the prayers of others to accomplish healing. You need the entire picture. Continue to look to Me for everything. Let Me work out the details of the best way, the Kingdom way, to accomplish that which I desire.
