When we gathered to pray at a Christian meeting, the atmosphere felt heavy, congested with a mix of hope and despair. That's when the unexpected happened—I was led to clear the room, a decision that might have seemed harsh but was critical for creating a space where healing could flourish. Our latest episode takes you through this profound journey, showcasing a transformative approach to prayer within the Christian Healing Ministry. We unravel how, at times, the best intentions of inclusivity in traditional church practices can inadvertently stifle the very healing they aim to foster. Reflecting on Jesus' own ministry, we see a biblical foundation for selecting intimate settings and unlikely individuals to carry out his work, a reminder that healing comes from God working through the most unexpected sources.Venturing further, we tackle the balance between intuition and action when spirits are at play. We share how following a nudge from the Holy Spirit led to a breakthrough moment—a testament to the power of trusting divine guidance even at the risk of seeming foolish. Throughout the episode, we encourage you to lean into that still, small voice when faced with uncertainty, for it is often there that we find the courage to act for the greater good.  Support the show

Today, Wes and Lisa tackle the concept of 'dumping the junk' to break through the spiritual blocks that often prevent us from embracing wholeness. Join us as we dissect the emotional clutter, negative influences, and personal attachments that create obstacles to healing, contrasting them with the pure intentions and faith of those who sought Jesus in the Bible.In this heart-to-heart, we delve into the biblical narrative of Jairus, drawing parallels between His faith-driven quest for healing and our own modern-day challenges. We explore the power of the right questions and actions in the pursuit of wellness, sharing stories that resonate with the same determination and boldness Biblical figures displayed. It's about shifting focus from the causes of sickness to the limitless possibilities of what God can do through us, and we're here to guide you through that transformative journey.Wrapping up with Wes's profound insights, we emphasize that divine healing is a dynamic partnership, not a spectator sport. This episode is a rallying cry for all listeners to step into their authority as disciples of Jesus, to pray with conviction, and to prioritize those in need over societal expectations.

Have you ever pondered the intricate dance between divine providence and human initiative, especially when it comes to healing? Prepare to embark on a thought-provoking journey through the realms of God's sovereignty and our free will within the Christian faith. Our latest episode challenges how the reformed theology frames God as the orchestrator of every minute detail in our lives, including our health, and contrasts this with the biblical accounts where figures like Peter and John took bold, decisive action to heal in Jesus' name. By analyzing these scriptural encounters, we uncover the expectation for believers to mature and step into their roles as Disciples within God's kingdom, actively engaging with the world around us while navigating the intersection of God's omnipotence and our choices.Yet, what role does prayer play in the grand tapestry of God's will? This episode also delves into the potent influence of prayer as we align ourselves with the divine. We reflect on the nuanced dynamics of Abraham's bold negotiation with God, drawing out the lesson that our Creator is not just open to our petitions but is swayed by the sincerity of human intercession. As we traverse biblical examples, the conversation reveals how our supplications mold the unfolding of God's plan, even as we grapple with the coexistence of predestination and personal agency. By the end of our discussion, listeners will be encouraged to view God's workings through a lens of love, considering the profound implications of our imperfect actions within His ultimate will.
