About power to heal others…
Proverbs 15:4 The tongue that brings healing is a tree of life, (NIV)
Most of us are not doctors. Even when a person is a doctor, the doctor does
not actually do any healing, for the healing energy in our body is the province
of God. When someone needs healing, how can you have the power, find the power,
or use the power to heal him or her? You can heal others by forgiving them. You
can heal others by conveying the love of God to them. You can heal others by
loving them as they are, where they are, like they are. You can heal others by
being kind, caring, and compassionate. You can heal others by touching their
heart and life in ways they can understand and accept. You can heal others by
being totally unselfish and letting them know they come first in your life. In
truth, you do not heal others. Like a doctor, you can do as much as you can to
let healing take place. But you cannot force healing power on someone. What you
can do is bring the light and love of Christ into a person's life, and then let
God do His work in love. Amazingly, when we bring healing power to others,
healing can and most often does take place. The truth is, we can all be
conveyers of healing power. Just as Christ touched the unclean leper and healed
him, you can touch others with His love and with His healing power. Through you,
His power of love will heal, restore, and make all things new.
