People who know me generally all say that I don’t seem to be disabled like other people. My family laughs and teases me in a complimentary way that I somehow make people forget about the wheelchair in which I sit. I always take that as a high compliment. I’m glad they stop thinking about the wheelchair when they are with me but the question is, why? Yesterday we had a lady say something so significant to me. The lady at the Dept. of Motor Vehicles (Secretary of State) who only saw me for a few minutes, smiled and referred to me as “technically handicapped.” My daughter laughed in agreement with her and pointed out that here was another person seeing me as not actually disabled. I believe this is a spiritual thing. I don’t believe in my handicap as permanent or even see myself as disabled, therefore that emanates to others as well. Very interesting phenomenon. I appear to others as not belonging in a wheelchair even though my body believes I do. Paralyzed from the chest down, hands too. A C-6 spinal cord injury, I’m “technically handicapped.” By faith I say I’m technically healed. But that reality is rising up and the spiritual truth will override the physical. It’s becoming more real every day. I am pursuing the full manifestation of my healing through Christ. I have learned a lot about faith and healing and I like sharing this with others. Thus the blog. I have a Youtube channel, "lynnesuszek", where I teach and share testimonies. Please check out our ministry at www.Hisability.com!
Faith

Faith-Confidence

If you think you are lacking faith, maybe you just need to adjust your understanding of faith. Faith is a power; and we all have been given the same measure of power. Using it can be awkward at first. “Accidental” miracles (meaning without your understanding) are the most common. Faith can flow suddenly like a trip cord that was hidden from you and God is trying to guide you there. However, miracles-on-purpose are supposed to happen regularly and are all prepackaged by Jesus. You are just pulling the string on the package. When you learn that the power of faith flows in you and all you need to do is trigger it, the only thing left to get results is practice until you gain confidence in using it. Fasting helps you to overcome natural thinking. Practicing expectation is the only thing left.

How can we build out faith confidence? Well one thing that’s been holding us back is wrong teaching.

“It’s not you it’s Jesus” is a faith confidence killer. It is God’s power flowing (what else would it be?) through us; we must realize that we are the ones who pull the trigger.

Without the realization that we are the commanders of power, we hold the faith guns, we are the deputized, ordained, commissioned, the called, the chosen, we won’t get the results we should. Jesus never said “It’s not you it’s me” when the disciples failed get the results they should have gotten. Jesus could only do the job for them while He was here on earth like a us! He cannot do the miracles for now us just as He cannot lie. Only people with bodies (even paralyzed bodies) can do what Jesus did and greater things than He did. We need to realize it’s us not Him who is commissioned to heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse lepers and cast out demons. We are back in the saddle because Jesus came to show us how to use the keys to the Kingdom.

Another faith killer is “don’t have faith in faith” which is only a hair wrong. We need confidence in prayer, a faith-confidence. If we have no faith-confidence we will not expect anything to happen. Confidence in the ability you have been given in Christ is not arrogance. Don’t confuse self confidence with faith-confidence. Becoming more confident in the faith that you have is exactly where you need to go. Learn how to trust that you have power that raised Christ from the dead in you and it works. It does work and therefore we can build confidence by using it often. The only way to build confidence is to keep using it. It’s a faith muscle. Acting on faith is a great way to get results. Every time a symptom comes, force it back where it came from by stepping out in faith using exactly what is being affected. If you feel like you’re failing, you just need to keep doing it until results happen. Faith never quits. Keep on resisting symptoms and you will see results.
