Our Intentional Act of Faith matters to God!

As my husband and I were entering Harris Teeter yesterday evening, I noticed a lady sitting all alone on a bench. I thought she was waiting for someone but upon inquiring, she mentioned that she can’t walk as her entire body is in pain and her joints are stiff. She has been on medicine but that doesn't help her. So, she was resting and waiting to see how her body would feel before she would make an attempt to shop in the grocery store.

I asked if I could pray for her and invite Jesus to touch and heal her. She mentioned that she is a born-again believer and believes in the power of God’s healing. I was glad to hear that.

By now, my husband was gone grocery shopping alone while I stayed behind with Joyce and prayed. As soon as I finished praying, she immediately got up and started to walk around. She told me that her pain is completely gone, and her joints are no longer stiff. Praise the Lord! Hallelujah for her healing! We both rejoiced and parted thereafter.

Next, I saw her shopping and walking beautifully in one of the aisles of HT. I thought, "A few minutes ago, she couldn't walk but now look, what God did that she could walk easily." As we passed by her, she stopped my husband and I and reiterated that her pain is 100% gone from her shoulders to her feet and there is no more stiffness. Thank you, Jesus! What a witness of the Lord's testimony to my husband and me!

Jesus loves when we step out and take chances with Him. We never know what God can do with our SIMPLE and INTENTIONAL act of faith. Nothing is impossible with God (Luke 1:37). All He requires of us is to use our faith muscles intentionally, so He can bring His Heaven on Earth!

Blessings to you'll on your intentional adventures with Jesus this new year, 2022!
