Dianna Day 358

Job 6:14  A despairing man should have the devotion of his friends, even though he forsakes the fear of the Almighty.

I wouldn`t say that Dianna had forsaken the Lord, she was just disconnected, she needed to plug into the Mighty Power of our God Almighty.  Road trip!  Early one morning we headed south down route 301, to visit my beloved friend and mentor Miss Jackie, at the Kent Island United Methodist Church.  

 Dianna assured me that she had great faith in God and prayed regularly, my dad`s a pastor!  Still I believed that something separated her from truly receiving God`s intended blessing.   She knew the words of God in her head, but not her heart!   Because of the three major back surgeries, in one year for degenerated disk disease, she allowed herself to dwell in  hopelessness; receiving a sentence that may eventually lead to a wheel-chair existence.  My 45 year old friend lived in constant pain and agony, allowing and opening the door for the darkness to invade her soul.  Depression, pain, anger, fear, hopelessness, negativity and envy penetrated and possessed her thoughts, why me!  Psalm 38:7-8  My back is filled with searing pain; there is no health in my body.  I am feeble and utterly crushed; I groan in anguish of heart.

Hello, Miss Jackie we`re here for the healing prayer and connection that your Sozo Ministry provides.  Thank you, God, thank you God, I was blessed to be Miss Jackie`s assistant!  Is this what you`ve been preparing me for, Father God?  Hebrew 11:8  By faith Abraham, when called to go to a place he would later receive as his inheritance, obeyed and went, even though he did not know where he was going.

For 2 and half hours Miss Jackie, Dianna and I  faithfully prayed and responded to the power of the Holy Spirit, Jesus and Almighty God.   Tears, buckets of tears flowed as the Holy Spirit released Dianna from strongholds and lies that had bound her thoughts and body.  In awe of  mighty God, I witnessed the peace of God transform and renew Dianna`s body and soul.  Thank you, God we have a "connection" and I helped!  All praise and glory to God the Father.    Thank you, thank you for directing and using us for your GLORY! Jeremiah 17:14  Heal me, O LORD, and I will be healed; save me and I will be saved, for you are the one I praise.

Ephesians 1:18-21  I pray also that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which he has called you, the riches of his glorious inheritance in the saints, and his incomparably great power for us who believe.  That power is like the working of his mighty strength, which he exerted in Christ when he raised him from the dead and seated him at his right hand in the heavenly realms, far above all rule and authority, power and dominion, and every title than can be given, not only in the present age but also in the one to come....PRAISE THE LORD!!!!

Did I witness a DIVINE HEALING, I believe so.....as Dianna and I walked yesterday this is what she shared. "I used to feel like I was carrying and dragging behind me heavy back-packs, I was always rushing full speed ahead.  After the surgeries I was stopped dead in my tracks; the load shifted landing right in front of me, preventing me from moving forward!  I was trapped.

 The weight is gone, I feel new, better and improved with  innocence and child-like faith restored, as if the film is removed from my eyes and the SON is shining on my face! It is as though my hearing was intenified and I hear more clearly.   The constant pain is gone, leaving behind only a small occasional twinge, as a reminder.  My husband says that I`m taller and straighter; I pray to slowly wean off the pain medicines and overdose on GOD.  You know,  this reminds me of a message that demanded my attention, that my father delivered; Don`t Let 12 Inches Keep You From Heaven! The distance from your head to your heart."

Was it a co-inky-dink that I pulled into Dianna`s driveway several weeks ago to renew a friendship, or was I responding in obedience to God`s direction?  I believe, that I just received one of my favorite God winks!  Thank you Father God, you are so amazing, thank you for loving me and healing my wonderful friend, Dianna.  Thank you for Miss Jackie, for her faithful desire to teach, share and witness for your glory!  It is my prayer that you are preparing me to walk in  her footsteps of faith.

Can I explain how or why this gift of healing was granted, no but I know that I worship and have faith in a MIGHTY POWERFUL GOD, and I do not question His power and Heavenly authority!  I just say thank you, God.......Luke 6:18-19  who had come to hear him and to be healed of their disease.  Those troubled by evil spirits were cured, and the people all tired to touch him, because power was coming from him and healing them.

Gotta go, meeting Dianna to walk a brisk 5 miles today!  Yes, Dianna will walk the walk and talk and talk for GOD`S GLORY! Amen........need an extension cord?
