Most of the times the sickness will not be healed by a miracle, that will be the extra-ordinary, the ordinary, the usual way is to be healed by God but using the skills, good care and compassion of a doctor and nurse, and the care and compassion of relatives, friends, neighbors…
All healing comes from GOD. If you posses great faith, sure you will be healed by prayer alone. But those who are weak may pray along with medicine.
There is an interesting story about Moses, who once got an ear ache, went up the great mountain, met God face to face, and had a consultation. Lord asked him to take few leaves from the bush, crush it and put the drops in his ear. Wow he got healed instantly. Few months passed, Poor Moses got the earache again, and he did what the Lord told him last time. But pain persisted, angry Moses asked Lord, what is this?…Lord replied, last time you did as I told you, but this time, you forgot to consult with me…
Pray along while you are undergoing any treatments.
I am a surgeon practicing Medicine since 1973, where I have taken care of thousands of patients and have done thousands of operations. I really do my best to practice Medicine according to the standards and ethics taught by my teachers, but I acknowledge that it is God the one who really heals, using me some times… I believe it is true the statement of the Bible, “See now that I myself am He! There is no god besides me. I put to death and I bring to life, I have wounded and I will heal, and no one can deliver out of my hand.” (Deuteronomy 32:39)
If healing is an art, I consider myself as a brush in His hand; similarly, I am only a blade in the hands of Master surgeon, GOD.
