HOW TO KILL A MIRACLE

               Delores Winder received one of the most remarkable miracles in our time. Facing death, Delores was terminally ill with pseudoarthrosis and had been wearing a body cast for 14 years. There was no known medical cure and Delores stayed in constant pain, literally living on tranquilizers. Delores knew her time was limited. Someone suggested that she attend a Methodist conference on the Holy Spirit in Dallas, Texas.

            Delores grew up in Johnstown, Pennsylvania and had heard of Kathryn Kuhlman who once lived in the area. She was known as a “faith healer” and a controversial person. By this time Ms. Kuhlman was on television, but Delores didn’t watch. Nevertheless, she had a conviction that she should attend the convention center and had to be carried inside. In Kathryn’s usual flamboyant manner, she floated across the stage and began talking and praying.

            Delores suddenly felt like her legs were on fire. She was carried on to the stage and discovered her entire body was being restored. Delores was wondrously healed! As she was restored, Kathryn Kuhlman told her, “Now you have work to do.”

            That work became praying for people. On one of these occasions, Delores was praying with a lady who had been crippled with arthritis. As they prayed, Delores felt that the woman had a problem with unforgiveness. When she inquired, the woman said, “No, I’ve forgiven everyone. However, Delores kept feeling the lady harbored resentment.  As she kept asking, the woman insisted there was no problem. Then, a word drifted across Delores’ mind, Brother.

            As Delores pressed, the woman admitted she had a brother but had “x’d” him out of her life. Couldn’t be him. Delores stared. How could the woman claim no animosity when she clearly had an ongoing struggle with her brother for twelve years? The conflict had to be resolved if healing was to follow.  Delores discovered the woman only lived two doors away from her brother!  Two doors distance had resulted in crippling arthritis.

            How do you destroy the possibility of a miracle? It isn’t hard. Just be resentful and unforgiving. That’s all it takes. Millions with issues have continually cried out  to God while still harboring resentment and bitterness. They believe in God, but not in keeping their slate clean.

            Jesus made it clear in the Sermon on the Mount (Matthew 5-7) that we must get things right with everyone before we come before the Lord. Wherever you are in your life’s journey, don’t kill the possibilities of restoration by harboring animosity or indignation. That’s how you stay open to the possibility of a miracle.

            Remember: miracles never cease.
