Following God’s Plan
A while back, God gave me a dream in which He offered me three examples of how we can get in such a hurry trying to make our healing happen that we miss the miracle He intends for us. He told me I was to speak to others about what He was showing me in my dream. I am offering what He showed me here.

In His first example, He showed me how we can know the
combination of a lock, and I saw one of the locks like we used to have on our
school lockers, and when we get into such a big hurry that we dial in one wrong
number and the lock doesn’t open. We try again and again, and still the lock
won’t open for us. We finally stop trying and we slowly dial the numbers we
have memorized and our lock opens!
His second example followed immediately right after the
first. He showed me how we can have the key to our front door in our hand and
maybe it’s raining and dark outside and we go to put the key into the door and
it doesn’t seem to be the right key. We look at the key in the dim light and we
confirm to ourselves it is the right key. “But, why doesn’t it work?” we ask
ourselves. Giving up we determinedly and very slowly insert the key into the
key slot and twist it. The door opens!
The third example like the others immediately was given to
me. In this example I was holding a piece of cardboard about 24” square. There
was a small hole in the center of the cardboard. In my right hand I held a
powerful flashlight which was turned on. I held the light behind the cardboard.
I was standing before a congregation of people asking them if they could see my
light. They admitted they couldn’t. I asked them in which way did I need to
move my light so they could see it and they suggested to the left and up, then
down and to the right but still they couldn’t see it. I asked them if they
would allow me to direct my light toward them and they finally agreed. I then
pointed my bright light through the hole and pointed it directly toward each of
them in turn. When they quit trying to tell me how to shine my light and
allowed me to do it they could see my light.
I believe what God was trying to show me was that we know He
heals us, He said He has, but we get into such a big hurry we lose our patience
with Him. When we don’t see it happening fast enough we want to try to make it
happen ourselves, or else we give up on Him thinking His healing isn’t working
for us. His Word confirms His intentions for our healing. Jesus died for
healing! By His stripes we are healed! God told me to speak of these; His
examples, to those who would listen. He said, “Stop, ask Me and then wait for
My instructions.”
When we are patient and we allow God to be who He is, and
trust we Him, we see miraculous results! We have the right key. We just need to
come into alignment with God’s plan not following our own.
