Approaching the Throne Boldly
Just got back from a conference and was reading an Elders book he had just published and I was inspired to write the next paragraphs...
In 2007 I discovered a lump the size of a quarter that at times ached so doctors wanted to cut, aspirate and whatever else they thought was needed, I told them NO you will not touch me. As christians when faced with hard decisions I believe we have the authority to approach God throne boldly and ask for certain things in our lifes.
I was desperate so I did that I inquired of the Lord and told the Lord if you don't heal me I am leaving this world but Lord I am not ready to leave this world. I have two sons that still need to be raised and I don't want their father or my family to raise them. I am desperate Lord heal me or take me quickly.
A year later I returned for my yearly test, and the technician stopped in the middle of the procedure and told me he had to go get a doctor...at that precise moment I called out to God and told Him you said you'd never leave me and instantly I felt His presence there. Doctor came into the room, proceeded with the procedure at the same time ask me what they had told me a year ago. Doctors were assumimg it was some type of a growth of cancer, he stopped and stated "whatever was there is gone." Later as I'm dressing I am weeping and thanking God for my healing, as I step into the elevator to make my way out of the building still crying a man in the elevator ask me, are you o.k.? I looked at him through teary eyes and tell him Yes, its just that I just received a miracle. He looked confused and said, they still happen? I nodded, I had to get to my car I didn't care to expound to this stranger what God had just done. When I got to my car I broke, I started praising the Lord and thanking Him for his grace and mercy.
I went home quickly cause we were in revival, cooked spaghetti w/garlic bread and had punch koolaid(there is a reason why I mentioned these two red items). Before I left for church that evening I could still feel the lump but I told that nagging voice, the doctor stated there is nothing there and I am healed. As the worship and praise begun the devil was telling me that I wasn't healed and pointed out that the lump was still there so I began to run the aisles thanking God for my healing. I did several laps when I began to feel very sick and as I rounded my last lap I headed straight to the ladies room. Suddenly deep within the bowels of my stomach I felt this tremendous urge to vomit, an intense burning coming up from deep within my stomach. So I got near a trash can, and out came five white furry balls that burned my throat so bad I was gasping for air. A sister came and asked me if I was ok and I barely could speak to tell her I needed water so she guided me to the water faucet, water couldn't alleviate my burning throat. So I sat at the back of the church, trying to clear my throat to no avail with mints that were offered to me. I told my son Sal when church was over son your going to have to drive home, I can't drive. When I got home I showed my son the xrays from a year before, the clear evident lump and my words to them were, today God has healed me completely I don't care what anyone has to say. My throat was still on fire for the next few weeks but that issue has never returned, I thought of the scripture, By His stripes we are HEALED! So very true and if you've come to tell me otherwise I won't believe you.
As I lay in bed that night thanking God I reached over to where that lump was supposed to be and there was nothing there, absolutely nothing! To GOD be the glory!
