Mark 11:24 says, “Whatever things you ask when you pray, believe that you receive them, and you will have them”.

>< i just realised after reading an article on why some people don't receive divine healing authoured by Michael, that faith and hope are 2 different things. Hoping for something to happen doesnt mean u have faith. Faith is knowing what u have prayed for has alreadii been answered, not "is going to be" answered later, but rather right now. Its made me realise a few things when i pray that i'm not praying with faith, rather that i am just hoping for answers.

There have been a few and i mean veri few occasions i think i may have prayed in faith because i remember having not to fight with my own doubts much at all. I remember that one week in Malaysia before i attended my uncles church for the first time. I prayed that i'd experience His prescense and or learn something or feel something tottally different and new. An what do ya know =) ! LOL He sure did answer my prayer. For the next few visits i think i grew more, n excercised faith more, as i began to ask the Lord to answer my questions i had that week the next time i went to Church. N sure enough O_< He did again. Was awesome.

But when i begin to pray for healing thats where my faith really suffers ><. I seem to doubt and can't seem to believe in an instant healing.. I'm prayin for my grand dad at the moment.. i prayed that by the end of this year he would be able to get up and walk !.. But its my doubts that put this time frame on his healing =(... of what could have been instant and right now solution. I still don't have the faith to ask the Lord to heal him and make him walk straight away. I can't pull myself around the fact that it might not happen ><. >< and i also feel lacking, because i haven't been Baptized in the Holy Spirit and recieved its empowering - i feel like i cannot do such things just yet.
