I'm going to basically echo something others have already said but it's an important lesson and I don't want it to get missed. Satan and his fallen angels are very real and very common pests. Their favorite tools are pride, fear, and doubt. It sounds like you are getting messed with by doubt...

Yes, though the number one issue to consider is spiritual state. Diseases like cancer come from a lack of spiritual health that ultimately manifests in the physical. These are things like lies that one has believed. For example, I have a friend with a current case of breast cancer. God has shown...

Honestly, marijuana has been shown to be more effective for neuropathic pain than traditional pain medications. My dad had neuropathic pain from undiagnosed heavy metals poisoning and was put on many of the very drugs you cite with little help. I can't say from experience whether marijuana would...

Man looks at outward appearance; the Lord looks at the heart. Also, to God 'was,' 'is,' and 'will be' are all the same,' so be careful about judging the end based on the present. You do need to tread very carefully, making sure to honestly be seeking for God's guidance and direction, but don't...

Time didn't exist.

So God does heal and has given my roommate and I some ability to do so, but when we tuned into your situations they felt blocked or something even though you didn't feel unworthy. When we meditated on this further, we both felt that the right prayer isn't for God to take these away right now...

Fighting deception is itself deception.

Wow really? You see nothing wrong with claiming to be a Christian and yet joining in false religion!?! Clearly you don't begin to understand the spiritual significance. I have a friend who's in-laws are Hindu. Her husband isn't, but neither is he yet a Christian. When her husband therefore...

My roommate and I had a whole year of not knowing where the next week's groceries would come from. Yet God continually provided. We didn't always have everything we wanted, but we always had something. In fact, I wonder now if we would have had more if our faith had been stronger. Early on there...

Yes, very true for a lot of us but I recently learned something about this state. Not only am I single, but all my pets have died in the last few years. I didn't want to get a new pet on the rebound, though, so I waited until I felt like I was emotionally and practically ready to even look...

Though my mother has her tendency to measure all her children's life success by the standard of the American dream (she does seem to be improving, thank goodness), most of the people I have encountered have been strangers online, so I haven't had the chance to see the fuller picture as you have...

Be sure to consider the spiritual health of the schools, not just the ratings or reviews of the secular world. In some areas the schools are indoctrinating kids into harmful, unchristian ideas without their parents' knowledge. God even told a family I know that one of their daughters in...

Singleness sure hasn't been voluntary for me. I wonder about some who I encountered in my youth, but people are where they are and things played out the way they did. What I know is that God has used my singleness to serve some of the forgotten of the world, and he has been speaking to me since...

It might have an effect on the immune system, but there is also a spiritual component to whether someone gets sick or not. God showed my household and church that if your trust was in God, then you weren't subject to Covid because it is subject to God. For example, my roommate was working at a...

Oh yay, I'm not the only one to hear it that way! When I was a kid, I wondered how it was that blind people had eye ques.

I used to. Since I was raised with them I tend not to eat a lot of the "unclean" meats to this day, but for psychological reasons (I learned to be disgusted by them). I have wondered about this being preferable for health, but God doesn't seem to think so since HE has talked to my current church...

Pardon me if I missed something (I skimmed since it's long), but you seem unaware of the verses in the New Testament about Balaam, which may help answer some questions. First off, these verses indicate that whether he was a true prophet or not, he was not with God. Realize, though, that a...

I just tried to water my hens and chicks. I managed to also water a bird and her eggs. Whoops!
