As for everyone else, everyone with a heart to do so should pray for Candance to be fully healed till it comes to pass. "And this we will do if God permits." - Hebrews 6:3PG4Him May the Lord grant you healing as soon as possible!
Blessings to you in Jesus' name! Amen.

I agree with the others PG4...just rest in the Lord concerning this matter, and wait for unction to return to deal with it....and it will, but for now it does seem that you need to rest after such a battle. There are times and a purpose to just rest and wait upon the Lord, be still and know that He is God. I call them gestating times. Very glad for your healing sister, praise the Lord.

I know I am not sharing with you anything you don't already know sister Candance, but I felt like I should give you this passage anyway as a reminder.
And he cometh to Bethsaida; and they bring a blind man unto him, and besought him to touch him. And he took the blind man by the hand, and led him out of the town; and when he had spit on his eyes, and put his hands upon him, he asked him if he saw ought. And he looked up, and said, I see men as trees, walking. After that he put his hands again upon his eyes, and made him look up: an he was restored, and saw every man clearly.
The first question that pops into most people's mind is why he wasn't fully healed the first time? How come Jesus had to pray for him twice? Was he having a bad day or something? Was the man's faith weak? You don't see that happening in other instances. Why here?
When we read stories in the Bible, they aren't just there to tell us the history of the early church, or even about what great works Jesus did, but they are there to teach us lessons. God doesn't always choose to do things in the same manner. Does anyone really think Jesus didn't know that this man wasn't fully restored the first time? It is kind of like the woman at the well. Jesus knew she didn't have a husband before he told her to get her husband, and he knew she had been married five times. Of course he knew the man wasn't fully healed. Why do it this way? I believe it was for our benefit, so we would know that even if the healing doesn't come all at once, that doesn't mean we must settle. Seeing men as trees walking was a major improvement from being totally blind, and this man could have settled for that, but God wanted better things for him. As such, while it took praying a second time, his full healing and restoration came.
I have every confidence in the world that if God told you he was going to heal you completely, he will do as he has said, and there is no reason to worry or be anxious.

Thank you, brother. I believe this was an anointed reminder for me 🙂. I will read that story again.
