Lord, I’m tired of doctors sticking labels on me
Like a Venn diagram of disaster.
Here is my mini pharmacy on the shelf:
This for that and that for this, and by the way
Some more because of the side effects.
Death threats disguised as diagnoses.
Heal me, Father! Touch me, Jesus!
Rescue me from this failing body!
Make me whole!


Do you believe your Father, or the world?
The Kingdom you reside is not the flesh,
And you possess the blessings I’ve unfurled,
So open up your eyes and look afresh.
Rejoice in your affliction for it brought
You to this place of need so you can see
The multitude of gifts that Spirit wrought,
When you fell on your knees with faith in Me.
With wisdom, understanding and of might,
The power I gave Christ who dwells in you,
As you now dwell in Him now walk in light,
Appropriate the miracles as true.
	The power of your healing rests within.
	If you believe in Me, it thus begins.


(EPHESIANS 1:3 - Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ)

(ISAIAH 11:2 - The Spirit of the Lord shall rest upon Him, The Spirit of wisdom and understanding, The Spirit of counsel and might, The Spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the Lord.)
