"Obedience is better" 1Sam 15:22
Wow. What a beautiful day today. I was walking up Elgin Street to do some banking and get some lunch when I noticed a workmate on the side walk.(He was upright, not fallen!) A conversation ensued. We talked about what the weekend plans would hold and so on; about how good it is to get out in the sunshine during a run. My friend then said his running was beginning to come to an end because of a bum knee. Immediately as he said this I had a pain in my right knee. I asked him, "is it your right knee"? He said, "Yes". We kept walking along. I was now wondering what I was going to do. We parted company, I did my errands and was returning to work, but I just couldn't shake the sense that God wanted to heal my friend. So I determined to write him an email when I got back to work telling him that I would be praying for his knee. I sent the email, he thanked me in reply. That didn't shake the feeling. Then the Holy Spirit said. Go lay your hands on him and pray. OK. I finished my lunch, went to his office and asked him if I could pray for his knee. He said yes, I laid my hands on his knee and said, "Father, in the name of Jesus heal this knee". That was it. I waiting now for the report from my friend of what Jesus will do with this seed of obedience. Obedience; there's no substitute.
Be blessed.
Be blessed.
