This is interesting.<\/p>\n

A whole lot of people are sick, and often out of desperation, people go to these types of “healing crusades”.\u00a0 Where the supposed “leaders” charge for a “fee” to attend.\u00a0 <\/p>\n

“Registration fees”, “convention fees”, the works.<\/p>\n

Or they seek a specific “faith healer”.\u00a0 Because “so and so” said they were healed.<\/p>\n

You have to pray real hard before believing in one, or going to one.\u00a0 Or paying for one.<\/p>\n

Here are stories of a TRUE Prophet and man of God, from the Old Testament.<\/p>\n

Elisha and the Shunammite Woman – (2 Kings 4:8-17) KJV<\/a><\/p>\n

Elisha Raises the Shunammite’s Son – (2 Kings 4:18-37) KJV<\/a><\/p>\n

Naaman Healed of Leprosy – (2 Kings 5:1-14) KJV<\/a><\/p>\n

In the above two stories, Elisha did not accept payment.\u00a0 The healing came from the Lord.\u00a0 Through Elisha’s prayers.<\/p>\n

And in the story below, is what happens to those who monetize God’s blessings of healing:<\/p>\n

Gehazi’s Greed and Punishment – (2 Kings 5:15-27) KJV<\/a><\/p>\n

While the prophet Elisha refused payment from Naaman, his servant Gehazi chose to take advantage of “God’s healing” and Gehazi’s greed caused the disease of leprosy to be put on him instead.<\/p>\n

It’s not a joke.\u00a0 God’s blessings are NOT, and have NEVER BEEN for sale.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
