"...Stand Up and Receive." | ||
|
I was out collecting wood on a Sunday afternoon, there was a branch up a little bit to high to be safe to cut it there, so I decided to trim a bit off it then move it to ground level. But that didn't go to plan, as I went to trim a small twig of it the chainsaw at full revs came down into my kneecap and then onto the ground. I had two other friends with me at the time, and they looked on in horror. I looked down and the saw had cut right through my overalls and jeans and into the leg. But there was no blood, this amazed me. I then thought this was a miracle alone, so I walked off and thanked God that my leg was still in tact. Then I said to my friends I had better go home as my leg was beginning to lock, and I had to drive the jeep home. Monday morning I could not bend or move the leg - it was locked stiff. So I made a visit to the Doctor, He said some words to me and how stupid I was and that I would have to have physiotherapy and that I would need a long time to recover before returning to work, also that I would get arthritis. So home I went. It was lunch time, 12.00pm, and after
lunch I decided I would lay down on the couch and rest. Well while I was
resting the thought came into my heart to start reading all the words from
the Bible about healing promises. At 3.00pm I heard the words "stand up
and receive". I tried and my leg was still locked, the voice I
believe was the Holy Spirit said "again". This time my leg moved
slowly. Then "you are healed, stand and walk" so I tried again and at
first it was stiff then the leg sprang free. Wow! I jumped, I sang,
I thank God. When my family came home I had a lovely story to tell of
God's great ways and love. |
