FIBROID DISAPPEARED

www.lulu.com
A sister who headed one of the departments in our church was suffering serious abdominal pains that refused all medications. The pains got to a peak while she was on suspension as a Head of Department. She did series of tests and scans and was billed for fibroid surgery. Some church members were aware but she kept it from me (her pastor) even when she was counseled to call me for prayers before going for the surgery.

I heard about her ordeal a night before her scheduled surgery. Initially I resisted the urge to call and pray for her since she wanted the whole thing kept away from me and I am not a prayer contractor or merchant but thank God for His Word that came to me. I picked my phone, called her and asked if she indeed wanted to go ahead with the surgery and she said “no”. I agreed with her that she did not need to be operated on by man but by God. I gave her the Word of God that worked for my wife and reassured her that if she had faith, God will heal her. I asked her to hold the phone with her left hand and to place her right hand on her abdomen while I prayed. To God be the Glory, she did not go for the surgery but went for another scan which confirmed that the pains were gone because the fibroid tissues had disappeared! Today, she is happily married with children, glory be to Jehovah Rapha, Halleluiah!

In the beginning, there was neither sickness nor diseases. Sin was introduced into the world by the failure of Adam and Eve; the aftermath of their disobedience to God. The wages of sin is death; sickness or diseases are but progressive forms of death. The world became diseased, troubled or plagued because of man’s failure to live in accordance with God’s command. Sin therefore is the origin of what is now called natural diseases. Pastor E.A. Adeboye has this to say about sickness, “sickness is an agent of death. Many people die through sickness. Even Elisha took ill and died of sickness (2Kings 13:14). Yet, Exodus 15:26 says we do not have to be sick.

The world became infested with demons (fallen angels) some of who committed fornication with daughters of men (Gen.6:1-5), who gave birth to giants that were instrumental to widespread wickedness and evil in the then known world. Today these demons are still responsible for idolatry and occultism with practices like evil altars, witchcraft covens, familiar spirits and curses.
As the bird by wandering, as the swallow by flying, so the curse causeless shall not come. (Pro 26:2)
 
A curse is words spoken against someone and is a direct consequence of sin, evil and widespread wickedness in our world today. A curse could be the cause of a sickness or disease. It is activated by sin (Deut.28:15-19), comes with a reason and the reason for a curse is iniquity. The sin of idolatry (Ex.20:4-6) brings a generational curse even to the 4th generation of the unborn children. Idolatry is worshipping of idols; a representative of a god. An idol is not actually a god but a demon masquerading as a god (Deut.32:16-17).

But I say, that the things which the Gentiles sacrifice, they sacrifice to devils, and not to God: and I would not that ye should have fellowship with devils. (1Co 10:20) 

Generation is from the Greek word gene and this means that children of today could and do receive demons from their parents who were involved in idolatry. These demons are called “familiar spirits” and are able to make a daughter or son afflicted or even dies by the same sickness that killed the mother or father respectively.

For this ye know, that no whoremonger, nor unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater ... (Eph 5:5) 
Greed also came into this world by the sin of idolatry. A greedy person is a slave to money (mammon) and materialism. He puts money and material things first before God. He finds it difficult to serve God with things he received from the same God. The greed of Gehazi (2Ki.5:25-27) brought a curse upon his bloodline and his children inherited demons (generational curse) that made them lepers like their father.

The so-called natural diseases and the above mentioned demonic diseases can be healed when brought to the Doctor of doctors, Jesus. Medical science only has solution to some natural diseases; demonic diseases cannot be captured under any medical diagnostic equipment and hence can only be healed by divine intervention.
The natural diseases originated by sin and are being spread by Satan and his agents. Demons are the spirits behind demonic diseases and once they are cast out through deliverance, the sick can recover almost immediately. There is a definite relationship between healing and deliverance (casting out demons).

Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world. (1Jn 4:1) 

 Jesus healed various natural diseases and also drove out many demons (Mk.1:32-34). Jesus established the need for healing of both natural and demonic diseases. We can tell if a demon is the source of a sickness or if it is just a natural cause by testing the spirit through the spiritual gift of discernment.
