Let God do it His way-Dr Kenneth Copeland

Dr Kenneth Copeland ministry's devotional;  Let God Do It His Way.


2 Kings 5:10-11, The Amplified Bible
So often we miss out on what God wants to do for
us because He doesn't do it the way we think He should. We work up an idea in our mind
s about how He's going to heal us, for instance. We think He's going to send some famous preacher to lay hands
on us or that He's going to knock us off our feet with a blast of His power. When He doesn't, we let our
faith drop and foul up what He had actually planned to do. That's what Naaman did. He went to Elisha
expecting to be healed in a particular way. When it didn't happen that way, the Bible says, he went away in a rage. What Elisha told him to do was

healing should take place. He thought Elisha would heal him by waving his hands around and calling on the Name of the Lord. Naaman stormed away and he would have missed out on his healing if one of
his servants hadn't talked him into giving Elisha's instructions a try. I used to be like that. I wanted
spectacular experiences from God so badly I was missing out on the experiences God had planned for
me. Once I realized that, I quit looking for feelings and spectacular manifestations and just started
expecting God to keep His Word. I remember I went to a meeting one night with my ankle messed up
terribly. The pain was so severe it went from my foot all the way up to my shoulder blades. But I went
into that meeting expecting God to heal me. During the praise service, I ignored the pain in my foot and just sang and worshiped with everyone else. When the preaching started, I got my Bible and got involved in the Word. Sure enough, sometime during
that service I was healed. I don't know when it was. I didn't feel anything. I didn't see any sparklers go off. I didn't even realize I'd been healed until after the service. I got about halfway to the door and
