Why can't I believe in what God can do as easily as I believe in what man can do? I take my diabetes medication every day - twice a day - really trusting and believing it can keep my blood sugar level down - I believe without even thinking about it- it's automatic - I just accept it and trust in man's ability to heal - but I cannot or do not believe God will heal me - how absurd is that? Isn't God infinitely better than man? Are not His ways and His abilities, far above man's? I should, as an act of faith, throw away my glasses. I'm extremely near-sighted. I can see less than six inches in front of my face. If I got rid of my glasses, i couldn't drive or work, cook, lots of other things, unless, of course, God heals me.
So very many Christians i know - when they get sick - their first response is: see a doctor. See a man (or woman). Trust in them for healing. Often, God isn't even considered. If He is, it's as an afterthought - an insurance policy in case the doctor can't do the job. But always - try the doctor or the hospital, first. Flesh always turns to flesh, for wisdom, for healing, forvall our Spirit-God can provide - if we fully submit our flesh to Him. If our spirit ruled over our flesh and not the other way around - we would exalt God (who is a Spirit) over our flesh. Healing is my bread! It is a partvof the Covenant God made with me! My eye sight should have been healed years ago - if not for my supreme lack of faith. Will the Son of Man find faith in MY earth when He returns?
