What an amazing connection between forgiveness and healing. I suppose when we haven't forgiven–and retain our sense of injury–we perhaps physically retain those injuries in our bodies. I have heard of other ailments which were cured when people forgave their enemies.
An amazing story!

As they're still being processed He pointed me in your direction. Isn't He great!

As my better half reminds me, the area we all too easily trip up on is making judgements and speaking pronouncements against others. It’s no different to deliberate cursing – brothers Jesus and James taught us the error of these ways. Lord, poke me hard whenever I do that.

When learning about prayer ministry we were taught 'to reverse the curse'. First on the list was forgiveness. Her own testimony is that forgiving someone resulted in her being healed: an additional benefit was no longer being registered as permanently disabled – praise the Lord!

Soon, the pensions Dept people phoned about her request to discontinue the disability allowance. The man was puzzled because they'd never heard of this and, as payments are permanent, they had no mechanism to cancel them! So, he heard first-hand about Jesus as healer.
