HOLD ON: HEALING MAY NOT BE INSTANT
When James Brand left his home that morning he was visibly in pain. He had been to Queen Elizabeth Central Hospital where he was diagnosed with prostate cancer. The front of his member was eaten up and at the same time swollen. The urethra was blocked so that he had problems urinating. “The urine was just coming out in drops and many times without warning and I had to change underwear many times a day”, he narrates. His marriage was shaken as he wasn’t able to exercise his conjugal rights.
On that day he met Brother Overton Makuta who, upon hearing James’ ordeal, advised him to come to church the following day. James did not waste time. Sunday morning he was in church eager to receive his healing. As the sermon went on he didn’t take it as a waste of time like many people do. The pastor always advises those who seek God’s help to listen to the Word first and believe It; then God will supply the desires of their hearts.
When it was time for Brother Makuta to pray for the sick James was on the prayer line. On this particular day Bro Makuta just pronounced healing upon all those who stood on the prayer line and asked them to go back to their respective seats. Well, call it lack of faith, but James was not satisfied. He still stood firm on the line until Bro Makuta finally laid his hands on him. “Go. Jesus has made you whole. Believe in Him”.
Weeks went by and nothing happened. This did not worry James. He still held on. “Jesus has made you whole”, he could hear that being repeated to him. He maintained his faith in God despite the severe pain he was feeling.
One day as he was about to take a bath he, as usual, checked on his wound and to his surprise it wasn’t there. The part that was eaten up was whole like before. Yes, he was startled. He immediately called his wife to see the miracle. “Where has it gone”? she asked in surprise. It was like James had received a new organ. He called Bro Makuta right there in the bathroom and narrated the story to him. “Praise the Lord”, is all what Bro Makuta said.
That happened over a year ago and until today James hasn’t had the same problem again.
So it doesn't matter how long it takes. When God says "it's over" it's over. Satan may whisper lies to you. Don't believe him for he is a liar and a father of lies. Take God at His Word. His promises are always true. Just hold on. Don't look at the symptoms, instead look at God's promises. May the Name of Jesus be exalted.
God bless you
