HEALING??? WHEN?????????

HOLY GOD is not limited by time when He is healing us according to His Word!!!
(but he understands that WE are in time).

A few years BEFORE I retired, my supervisor (Roy Cornweller) on a weekday notified (us
(whom He supervised) that his wife (Brandy) was in the hospital.

At that time, I started praying extra for both Roy and Brandy.

Soon after that, our HOLY LORD GOD drew to my attention to a portion of His Word:
"By His (JESUS') stripes we are healed." (Isaiah 53:5).

As I prayed about this verse, ANOTHER verse came to my remembrance.....
It was Isaiah 55:11 "So shall MY WORD be that goes forth from My mouth; It shall not
return to Me void (empty or fruitless); But it shall accomplish that for which I sent it and
shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it)."

And this verse Isaiah 55:11 (above) strengthened my faith that Brandy would be healed after
she read the verse ("By His stripes we are healed").

When I first received the healing verse I also understood that I should write the verse down and
give it to Roy and Brandy...and after she read it she would be healed.
As stated above, I did give the verse to Roy, he gave it to Brandy, and she read it.

After giving the verse to them I waited several days, then I asked Roy "how is Brandy?"
Roy said, "About the same". Of course, I was disappointed!

I waited until 2 weeks had passed, then I again ask Roy "how is Brandy?", Again Roy answered
"about the same".

Again I was disappointed!. Soon after that, I sensed that I had to spend alone with our LORD---
in order to get some more understanding from HIM. As soon as I could, I did (by HIS GRACE)
spend some time with HIM.

During that time, I struggled to be in reverent AWE of GOD, and at the same time be truthful
in expressing my frustration.

I remember saying, "O LORD, please guard my heart, and please give me understanding"-------

"I know that Isaiah 55:11 says that Your word will not go out and come back void.....but I don't
see ANYTHING happening in Brandy's sickness; but I know that Your word says that Your word
does not go out and come back void...but accomplishes that for which It was sent.........so I went
back and forth quoting those 2 verses.....

Finally---after GOD got me calmed down, and quiet, then gave me understanding:
"While Brandy is in the hospital, there are many family members, friends, co-workers, and
others that are coming to visit Brandy, and hospital staff are in and out of her room.......
I (GOD) am doing MUCH work in the lives of all those people.....; When I (GOD) have completed the work in all their lives THEN I WILL HEAL BRANDY!!!"

Our HOLY GOD graciously gave me more understanding:

"YOU, Barry have been quoting ME Isaiah 55:11?!!!
"My son, I know that up until this time Isaiah 55 is the ONLY chapter that you have already
memorized---
So look just 2 verses above there....in Isaiah 55:9...
"For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are MY ways higher than your ways, and
MY thoughts than your thoughts."

O WOW!!! when I think different from GOD'S WORD.....He can just "lay me out"!!!

But HE is so gracious to us!!! HE is faithful to His word and to His righteous character". (2 Timothy 2:13)

AFTER HE FINISHED HIS WORK IN ALL THOSE LIVES.........HE DID IN TRUTH HEAL BRANDY!!!!!!!!!

HOW AWESOME HE IS!!!!!!!!! THE ONLY TRUE GOD!!!!!!!!!(JOHN 17:3)

LET US IN WORDS AND ACTION WORSHIP HIM!!!!!!!!!
"SURELY LOVE AND MERCY,YOUR PEACE AND KINDNESS WILL FOLLOW ME WILL FOLLOW ME." (See Psalm 23:6)
