Discerning Healing

1/23/2023

When you are experiencing a crisis in your health, there are lots of options to choose from to search for healing...

Do you go with hospitals and doctors?
Do you take a poll on fb to gather the advice of all your friends with their google doctorate?
Do you seek the advice of a Naturopath?
Maybe you go to a "healer"?

Maybe you go to your Pastor and ask for prayer and to be annointed with oil?

Most people opt for the allopathic, white coat methods because they seem the most trusted, are well advertised, and regulated by the government.

Some people don't trust "medicine" regulated by the government, viewing it largely as pharmakeia and opt for a more natural route to acquire health. This is a windy road, and depending on the Naturopath you seek, you can end up with any mix of methods from complete quackery and utter nonsense to occult practices and witchcraft to obtain your health. You may end up with legitimate, scientific methods that are effective, but most likely, if you seek the advice of several different Naturopaths, you will end up with several different strains of advice. Needless to say, that doesn't evoke much confidence when your health, and possibly life, is on the line.

I wanted to come at this topic from a different angle today that I have been processing recently...

As always, when viewing the body, blood, someone's health crisis the first thing I seek to do is find the cause. I usually am thinking in the "natural" and not the supernatural. I ask lots of questions that give me clues as to causative contributing factors for someone's illness. Then I make suggestions based on my findings. This is usually very effective...except for when it is not.

There are things that work to heal the body, repair severe damage, and boost the immune system. It's not even complicated most of the time. It's simple. It's science.

But SOMETIMES, it doesn't work. And a person continues to troubleshoot to find the root issue at the base of all the health problems. And more methods are tried. And that cycle continues. And NOTHING works.

As I was processing my Pastor's sermon series on New Ageism in the church, a lightbulb went on. It's something I should have been much more aware of over the years, but hasn't been my primary focus.

If the root cause of an illness is from the demonic, nothing you can try in the natural will help you...

Here are just 2 examples, and by no means an exhaustive list...

1. You and your family get sick ALL THE TIME regardless of your efforts to eat well and live a healthy life. You just don't understand what could be the cause. One by one you eliminate every single thing that could be part of it, you make expensive changes to better the situation, and every time you turn around, someone is sick, injured, or suffering and you simply don't know why or what to do.

2. You have a serious condition that NOTHING helps. The condition that keeps coming to mind at the moment that is a great example is seizures. There are allopathic meds and natural ones that are extremely effective for this. This is also an issue for which Jesus cast out demons. I can assure you that no matter how effective CBD is for seizures according to studies, if they are being caused because of demons, no amount of CBD will make them stop. This is also true for cancer, other neurological disorders, and many other conditions.

If demons are at the root cause of your illness, the ONLY thing that will change your situation is deliverance.

How do you know if you are afflicted by demons? Sadly, there are not many preachers that have experience with demonic possession, deliverance, and helping people break free, but I will include some links where you can learn more.

Here are a few doorways in which demons can take authority in your life to wreak havoc:
1. One in particular that is not named in the list below is via needles. One pastor I know, Pastor Troy Towns, had done a series on piercings being a doorway. While not the same, if you combine needles with the witchcraft practice of pharmakeia, that is another open door to allow demons in.

2. Accursed objects in your home. This can include books, games, costumes, ornaments, and objects with magic, symbols, and sorcery. It can also include objects with intention to heal or bring power of some sort. No matter how innocent, fun, playful, or harmless it may seem or how innocent you feel your heart is regarding these things, I assure you that they are not powerless. If you are struggling with a serious health or mental condition that no efforts have been able to shake, let me ask you - is it worth it? If you could be free by discarding these things from your home and seeking deliverance, would you do it?

Ecclesiastes 10:8 "He that diggeth a pit shall fall into it; and whoso breaketh an hedge, a serpent shall bite him.

Here are some more ways to break the hedge of protection around you:

I also wanted to include some resources for more research. There are a few great teachers on the subject, but my favorite is my own pastor. Here is a link to in depth teachings on the subject that include some fascinating personal experiences. He recommends other books and teachers as well.

Have you struggled to break free and think you may need deliverance?

Delicious Humble Pie, Oh My...

Hopefully, we are all continuing to learn. But I don't want my Savior to look at me and say "she was never able to come to the knowledge of truth." This past year I have learned a lot. And some of what I have learned has truly surprised me. Much of it has humbled me. And all of it has continued to show me the greatness of God, the Lord Jesus Christ, Creator of Heaven and Earth, Savior of the world, who alone is worthy of every breath we take...

There's a few things I was reminded of this past year that hit me on an all new level...

1) Attitude will create more health or sickness than any foods. Even Dr. Young said that a person can eat perfectly, but if they have a toxic attitude such as anger, rage, depression, or fear - they will keep you sick. Those negative emotions create so much acid in the blood and tissues that they can destroy your health no matter what you eat.

2) Similar to number 1, gratefulness and blessing your food really makes a difference. Having a positive, happy heart really is good medicine - that's Bible, folks. Also, in regards to blessing and sanctifying your food, I have come to see and know that the Lord Jesus really does sanctify the food, making it clean when we eat with grateful hearts when we ask Him to. 1 Timothy 4:4-5 says " For every creature of God is good, and nothing is to be refused if it is received with thanksgiving; for it is sanctified by the word of God and prayer. I trust that promise.

3) The body is far more resilient than I had given it credit for. My mind has been blown this year. As I have seen what people have eaten in various circumstances. A great example of this is my dad who was admitted to the hospital with double covid pneumonia. I had video calls with him. I will admit, I was under extreme stress over his being in the hospital. At this point, I had not ever allowed my kids to eat ANY dairy, knowing that it contributes to congestion. Most people know not to consume or give their kids dairy when they are sick. As I saw the foods on my dad's tray - skim milk, pizza, and red 40 jello my chest tightened. They did not give him what I would consider any valuable nutritional supplements and fed him foods that increase congestion. Yet, he walked out of there a week later. Incredibly impressed with how resilient and able to repair itself God designed the human body, and having to admit that I was surprised and relieved at how little control we have at times. I have felt humbled, powerless, and protected by my Heavenly Father all at the same time.

4) There is a point where fellowship trumps food choices. This is something I never actually expected myself to arrive at, but I am so grateful to be here in this space of freedom and sanity. With all the amazing things I did learn working at the pH Miracle Center, one thing I did not expect to take away was PTSD, but it somehow snuck hidden away and I discovered it this year...

There were occasions where people did not follow the program. No one was held hostage. People left the property and made personal choices. People would leave for months at a time, come back sick again after they returned to the same lifestyle habits that had them sick in the first place. Sometimes, people died, which can happen with terminal cancer diagnoses. Almost in every case, that was when they stopped doing the things that put their body back into balance. The fact is, some people can handle a lot more dietary toxins because either their body is more resilient (great/strong genes) or their attitude is so joyful their glad heart provides a lot of good medicine for them. And some people are so compromised from the treatments, jabs, emotions, diet, and environment toxins that it is extremely hard to keep them well despite the efforts made. But in any case, I saw some sad situations that scarred me and I made promises to myself about my children - like "I won't let them get sick".

Those were impossible promises to keep, because I am not in control of everything. But as much as I could, I tried to control their health. I'll admit that the weight of that was a burden that is not fun to carry. Has it been awesome that they have never need an antibiotic or pharmaceutical in a collective 20 years, yes. Do they enjoy great health? sure, and that is rewarding. And yes, there are important choices we all need to make that will impact our health 1000%, but my God is a miracle-working God, and He is even bigger than what I can control. Though He doesn't always block out the consequences of our choices, He can. I believe He surely does far more than I am aware of. And this year, He showed me an example. We moved to a new place and there was a slight lack of unity in fellowship, and it was my fault. We ate different, and although no one was unkind, it appeared that what was natural and common here just wasn't good enough for us. That's not where our hearts were. It was complicated and confusing and I was terrified to even entertain the thought of letting my kids eat something that had a higher bacteria load or more acid than they ever had before. I actually got dizzy and hyperventilated when my cousin encouraged me with the words "it won't kill them to have (normal) ice cream once this summer."

In fact, I realized that my reaction was so unnatural to a common treat that there was something wrong in me. I also saw a lack of intimacy in their friendships that was causing them to suffer...and that causes more acid than not eating alkaline. So I decided that during group fellowships they could eat anything available - as long as they agreed to tell me what they had so I could give them the appropriate amount of baking soda, activated charcoal, and supplements to overcome it (or at least satisfy my concerns). And you know what, they didn't die...or get sick. Our fellowships got sweeter: we were available to accept dinner invitations. I overcame a fear I wasn't even aware I had. My kids got to experience new foods. Our blood still looks great.
And finally, in Luke 10:8 Jesus instructs us: "Whatever City you enter, and they receive you, eat such things as are set before you", so there's that.

5) I've been using honey. I know, I wrote a post in my Remedies That Harm series calling out honey. The basis for which stems in the fact that cancerous cells feed on sugar, regardless of source. So for people trying to overcome, reverse, avoid, or are predisposed to cancer - or even diabetes and other serious conditions, I would still recommending avoiding honey. But for temporary relief of a sore throat or to get down a crushed clove of garlic, gram of CBD powder, or hot oregano oil I admit to enjoying it, and though heavy, long-term use may degrade red blood cells, it seems that the short-term benefits have outweighed the potential consequences for now, for us. We also use it in some recipes as a special treat (like many of the things on the acidic section of the food chart), not because I think it will improve our health, but because we are enjoying it and I am ok with that.

So, what have you learned this year? Have you changed your mind about anything recently?
