A Praise report and a lesson

A Praise report and a lesson.

Recently, my mum had some problems with her arms movement.

Initially, her right arm's joint or llgament, out of no reason, felt painful when she tried to lift up or move forward and backwards.

We prayed a few times; cast out and commanded the arm be healed, over few days as the healing was not immediate but took some days afterwards though there was some relief of the pain.

While the right arm was in the process of being healed some days after, her left arm starts to have the same problem.
It was at this point that we realised that her previously afflicted right arm has been healed.
Again we prayed for the left arm; casting out and commanded. The same relief came and it was also not immediately healed.

Now, a few days afterwards, she slipped and fall in the living room over a small patch of water and although she landed on her bottom safely, her left arm which was already in pain was injured further while trying to cushion the impact of the fall. This further limits the arm movement with more obvious pain.

This time even after praying multiple times, her left arm was not healed even after a few weeks.
In the process of the days, she consulted the family clinic GP for pain relief pills, a Chinese TCM accupuncturist who seem to cause more pain in the arm instead and multiple times to a Chinese traditional physician (non-TCM) which only apply herbal plaster ( 膏药 ) on her shoulder with no effects whatsoever, who even falsely claimed her soft-bone was broken and told her to avoid moving her arm.

The Lord leads me to Derek Prince's "The Prayer of Release" from curses and I prayed together with her aloud as I discerned this to be a spiritual attack by the Adversary.

Then the Lord leads me to Kathryn Kuhlman's teachings and case testimonies of healings in the book "God Can Do It Again", revealing to me an understanding on the healing virtue;

That your faith in healing depends on your relationship to the Father,
That healing comes when the Presence of God by the Holy Spirit in the Name of Jesus comes upon the sick person,
That healing virtue is not an energy or "Qi" that flows into the sick (false teaching influences by new age and martial arts practices in my past)
But
It is the Presence of the Holy Spirit filling the sick.

The lesson is this:

It is man receiving the Presence of the Person of the Holy Spirit and not merely just a part of Him to heal which I had unconsciously and erroneously understood how it works.

Think of it in the other side of the fence:
If sicknesses and diseases are caused by the oppressions and afflictions of whole or multiple demonic spirits (not in parts or pieces),
Surely the Presence of God, the Person of the Holy Spirit, coming near or upon the demon-afflicted man will cause the demons to flee as well as the body to be saved or heal, just as Salvation from sin in our soul.

~~~

So, renewed with this fresh understanding, on the night of 23 Apr 2021, I started by:
1) Bringing to mind the loving relationship with God, my Father

2) Praising Jesus aloud
- The Holy Spirit likes it and His Presence comes when we Praise Jesus

3) Listen continuously to the Holy Spirit for what to act and what to command according to what He impresses upon me.

This is distinctively different from how I have conducted healing previously where I now realised on hindsight that I am actually trying to take the lead by self-will and use the Holy Spirit to do the healing by contact in laying of hands or by His authority to command the casting out of devils.
Know that the Holy Spirit cannot be used by men but He is good and still grants the healings that I have conducted in my ignorance.

And so by faith and not by my self-will, by the Spirit's leading and my acting on it, my mum's left arm was immediately able to lift up and move around without the obvious pain before experienced.
Although not completely healed yet, it is already a manifold great improvement over what the condition was minutes before the healing begun.
