Healing Promised

Cure: If we would judge ourselves, we should not be judged, I Co. 11:30-31.

All our righteousness is as filthy rags, in comparison to God's way of thinking. His ways are higher than ours are. Understanding that, it seems odd when people go into a state of shock, being offended that another would even think they weren't perfect, when all God wanted to do was to set them free.

It takes a person maturing in their walk to be able to consider thoughts that might not be lined up with God's, without their pride or low self-esteem kicking into overtime.

When our insides begin to go haywire, instead of pointing to a person or circumstance, we can look inward and upward, asking God, "What is it about me that crumbles whenever this happens? Where does this feeling come from when I get angry over such little things? Why do I always fall apart in like circumstances? Why can't I trust You with my needs instead of taking matters into my own hands? Why do I expect the worst and get offended at people when I only presume to think I've seen their heart?"

Spiritual and literal healing is promised for those who are willing to examine themselves. It is a process of restoration, becoming free from ways of thinking that Satan planted.

When our thinking doesn't line up with God's, it isn't our thinking at all - but Satan
