Becoming Whole

Waiting for Healing

An anonymous question came in through the Regeneration Ministries blog setting the stage for this conversation “…Why does God set one free from sin and stronghold immediately and not another?“ Why are we waiting for healing and other's aren't?

If you keep struggling with sexual sin and have watched others gain freedom; that can feel hard. 

On this episode of “Becoming Whole,” Josh and Kit tackle the mystery of healing and the ‘why’s’ that can come with it. Listen in as they navigate the touchy questions like “Is it something you earn? Why don’t I deserve it?” 

It can feel like there’s an unevenness in healing. But, witnessing someone else’s freedom from sexual sin while you keep struggling shouldn’t lead to condemning God or you. 

God has a different experience for you. 

If you are longing to find freedom, we pray this conversation softens your heart to see the Hope available for you.

Highlights:

When we start interpreting our experience of not being set free from something with an angle that either accuses us or accuses God; that’s an indicator that the enemy is getting his own opinion in there that’s unhelpful.

The way God heals one person is not the way, necessarily He heals every person.

There are different layers of what needs to be sanctified, what needs healing, what needs transformation in our lives.

Homework:

Self Reflection: Are you speaking failure over your habits and patterns? 

Try using different language around your sins and habits. 

Practice saying: “Today, I’ve struggled this way” instead of “This is my struggle.”

Find people to remind you of God’s kindness.

Pick any two or three of these verses and pay attention to the details (who was asking for healing, what their condition was, the method Jesus used) -  John 2:1-11, John 4:46-47, Luke 5:1-11, Mark 1:23-28, 30-31,40-45, Matthew 8:5-13, Luke 7:11-18, Matthew 8:23-27, Matthew 8:28-34, Matthew 9:1-8, 18-26, Luke 8:43-48, Matthew 9:27-31, 32-33, John 5:1-9, Matthew 12:10-13, 22, Matthew 14:15-21, Matthew 15:22-28, Mark 7:31-37, Matthew 15:32-39, Mark 8:22-26, Matthew 17:14-21, John 9:1-38, Luke 13: 10-17, Luke 14:1-4, Luke 17:11-19, John 11:1-46, Matthew 20:30-34, Matthew 21:18-22, Luke 22:50-51, Luke 24:5-6, John 21:1-14 

Jesus healed a lot of people from a multitude of ailments, at varying stages of sickness, using a lot of different methods. Considering all the details of these stories is a way to appreciate the mystery of Jesus’ healing.
