Today's lesson on healing was not one I'll soon forget. When David started talking about Duane Miller, the preacher from Houston that was healed during a taped sermon, I thought, "Oh man, I would love to hear that!" So, you can imagine my excitement when he said, "Can you start that audio?"
So, in case you weren't there today, here's the story: Basically, this preacher (and apparently an amazing one, at that) was diagnosed with a virus that affected the nerve endings in his vocal cords. Supposedly, doctors say he should have ended up mute.
Well, he couldn't preach anymore because his voice was little more than a hoarse whisper, so he just started teaching smalll classes on Sunday nights (using a very powerful microphone). He went on this way for about 3 years.
Then, one day, God worked a miracle.
Go to http://www.nuvoice.org/ and click "The Moment" on the bottom left of the page. Pay attention to the words he was saying as it happens...
Isn't that powerful?! And to get to be witnesses to this. . . just amazing.
I glanced at Brandon out of the corner of my eye and I could see tears streaming down his face. Then mine started. God is so, so good.
"Out of despair, God can bring joy.
Out of doubt, God can reveal truth.
Out of trial, God can bring peace.
Out of pain, God can bring healing.
Out of silence, God can roar."
From Out of the Silence, by Duane Miller

Isn't that the most amazing thing!
Just when we have decided this is our life, our cross to bear, and we will just continue on by faith...
God speaks.
