Summary: Amber reveals what topic God is calling her to write about in upcoming articles. If you are a faithful reader of my column, you have probably come to realize by now that I believe in being transparent; which means I share my innermost feelings with you all. I think it shows you the real me and how I relate to God and my relationship with Him. With that being said, the other day I was reading my Bible and praying, asking God to give me more and more revelation of His Word and what He wants me to share with you all. I had felt like a lot of the revelation I had received from Him had already been written about. “Lord, what do you want me to tell your children” is a frequent prayer I pray. I want to do what God wants me to do and allow the Holy Spirit to lead me in my writing. . Anyhow, as I was praying and saying that I needed fresh revelation, I felt God say to me in that still small voice of His, “You haven’t exhausted all the revelation I have given you. In fact, there is one topic you have barely even touched on – healing.” Healing is something I started learning about over eight years ago, after my Dad was diagnosed with cancer. Knowing about how good God is and that He wants us healthy, not sick, is what ignited my passion for Jesus and sharing His finished work on the cross with others. It made me dig in to the word of God more and proclaim the truth with all who would listen. Something would happen to me on the inside when I was able to share divine healing with others. I have never been high on drugs, but sharing those truths definitely put me on a spiritual high like no other. Ironically, I felt my stomach drop and my heart started pounding though when God spoke that to me. Why would I feel like that over a topic I am so passionate about? Well, remember what I wrote about last week? It was persecution, and I have definitely been persecuted when I have talked about divine healing. And that part doesn’t feel good. People who I thought would eagerly accept it have out and out rejected it. And worse yet, they look at me like I am a crazy woman, even though what I share with them is straight out of the Bible. So my selfish flesh instantly got frightened at the thought of digging deep into this subject of healing, because so far I have only touched on it a little. I had never felt the Holy Spirit really calling me to write on it much before in my articles. I think He knew to have me establish a firm foundation in grace and the difference between the old and new covenants in my writings first. I kept talking to God, and I finally told Him if Jesus was persecuted for me then I was going to allow myself to be persecuted for Him. The fear of man brings a snare (Proverbs 29:25), and I wasn’t going to let my fear of what people had to say stop me from sharing these truths that I have learned. Besides, if God called me to do it He would walk with me every step of the way. I then started getting excited, thinking of all the people who desperately need to hear what God’s word says about healing. I thought of all the sick people who now would have a chance to hear the truth and freely receive the healing that Jesus died on the cross to give them. Just like Jesus, I want people to be well, not sick! I would like all of you readers to please try to be open to what God has laid on my heart to write in the upcoming articles. Many of you will have probably never heard these things before, like I hadn’t before eight years ago. I ask you to take off all the religious preconceived notions you have and become a spiritual babe. Ask the Holy Spirit to lead you into all truths, and to allow any doctrine that you have heard contrary to the truth to fall from your minds. And please do not take my word on it but search out the scriptures yourselves. I don’t know about you, but I am excited about this. The passion has been rekindled, the fire is alive again! Join me next week as I start on this topic of divine healing. You won’t want to miss it! (Questions or comments? Amber can be reached at amberdeemiller32@gmail.com)
