Last week while out with my team, I fell and twisted my
right leg. It was very painful, the next day I went to the doctor to make sure
it was nothing major wrong with it. The doctor said I had to be on 48 hours of
rest until the swelling went down. Boy was I dreading that 48 hours. The more I
thought about it, those 48 hours of rest could be just what I need. See on the
race you continue to learn how valuable your time is in pursing your
relationship with God. Those 48 hours I could make the best or I could make it
be the worst it was left up to me.
With knowing the power of prayer my team and I started
praying for my knee. It is amazing how powerful prayer can be. I have learned
that a lot on the race. It might take several times praying for something
before God answers your prayers. Ultimately, God is the number one healer when
you believe. After a night of prayer with my team, the next morning I could put
a little pressure on it. It was still swelling a little and some pain. The
prayer definitely worked the day before I could not put no pressure on it at
all. I still had to rest…
That night during worship with the children at the
orphanage, one of my teammates asked if it was okay for the children to pray
over me. I was more than glad, if you heard these children prayers each night
and day you would see the prayer warriors they are. So as the children huddle
around me to pray over my right leg, you could fell the present of the Holy
Spirit come in to the room. I start to feel a pulse type feeling in my leg
while they were praying; I did get that same feeling when my team and I prayed
over my leg. Even though the healing didn’t take place right away, the next
morning when I woke up, I could walk normal on my leg.
The power of prayer is amazing. With God on your side
anything can be possible. As it says in the bible,
“Therefore I tell you
whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will
be yours.” Mark 11: 24
Always be in prayer to God, He does answer prayers. Below
are some pictures of the children praying over my leg.
Until take time… take care and God bless
