Preaching on Healing While Sick
Andrew Wommack
I was teaching these Bible studies and I started teaching on healing and I had been relatively healthy. At that time I was 18, well no, l was probably 21 by the time this happened, and l’d been relatively
healthy. But when I started teaching on healing, I got sick and stayed sick for six weeks. It was with just a cold, a headache
or something, it wasn’t anything major but just something wrong. And here I was preaching on healing and I was having to blow my nose or coughing.
I started to back up and say, ‘look I can’t preach on something I’m not living if it’s not working for me’ and I started to give up. I remember coming to a place when I was praying about it and the Lord just spoke to me and he said, “Are you going to go just by what you experience or are you going to go by what the word says is true? (whether you are seeing it work in your life or not).?”
Now there’s a balance to that because you need to be having some fruit of what you say you’re believing in your life, but the Lord made it very clear that I was going to preach the word whether I saw it working in my life or not.
I just made it a determination, and I remember telling the Bible study I’m going to teach on healing whether I see it working in my life or not because this is what the word of God says. Amen, and that was a turning point. And from that time on … things begin to improve quickly…
