Roadblocks to Healing

There are roadblocks to healing, even when you have a knowledge of God's Word and have accepted healing as an established fact.

I have been in the ministry fourteen years, and I have taught healing all that time. Yet there have been times in my own life that I have not been able to receive my healing immediately. I knew one thing: It wasn't a lack of knowledge. I could quote almost every Scripture in the Bible on healing! I believe it. I believe in healing, yet I was sick. I came to this conclusion: My inability to receive healing was no reflection on what was done in Jesus Christ.

Not one time that I was sick did I ever say, "Maybe healing is not for me. Maybe healing doesn't work. Maybe it is not true. Maybe Jesus didn't bear our sicknesses." Not one time did I say that, because I knew the Word said the opposite. My personal experience did not make the word of God untrue. Healing was accomplished by Jesus on Calvary and no matter who gets healed or who does not get healed, it is an established fact. If I have not received my healing, it is because of some roadblock Satan has sent to hinder my acceptance of it. I'm not talking about a lack of faith. I believe in the Word. I had faith, but there was an inability to receive— there was a roadblock.

Don't ever think that the path to healing and divine health is going to be easy! It is strewn with roadblocks to trip you. There I stood, a minister of the Word of God, teaching on divine healing, yet for some reason there was a roadblock in my path—an inability to receive healing.

So what did I do—cry? I was tempted to call every spiritual person I knew and ask them to pray for me. Instead, I went to God. He knows all the answers. I said, "God, there is some reason why I have not been able to receive this healing." I didn't put the blame on myself. Too many people turn on themselves and say, "Well, I'm just not strong enough spiritually. I don't have enough faith. I guess I'm just one of those people with little faith."

Someone is always so ready to come along, join with your self-condemnation, and say, "Well, if you just had enough faith, your child wouldn't have died. If you had enough faith, your husband would not have gotten sick. If you had enough faith, you would not be sick now. You must not be reading the Word enough."

Instead of spending so much time on introspection, spend more time inspecting the Word of God!

There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.

Romans 8:1

God is not condemning you. Satan is the one who condemns.

After digging out from under selfcondemnation, I began to discuss my problem with God, because He is the one who knows what the problem is.
