The Sentence of Death

While Paul was in Ephesus he reached the brink of death in his efforts to spread the gospel of Christ. So close that, in his heart, he felt the sentence of death in his body. Not just him but those with him felt the same thing. 2Cor 1.8-11

This is how we feel as we pray for Andrew. This is beyond his ability to endure and beyond the ability of his Mom and Dad to endure. We feel it too as we stand with them and believe for healing.

Last night we prayed for the dissolving of a blood clot, sitting outside the operating room where they were injecting Andrew with a fluid to dissolve the clot. We believed, declared and commanded, only to find out the procedure was a failure. No options left, death at the door, faith vanishing, hope struck down...............we felt the sentence of death. I'm not sure Mom is going to make it, let alone Andrew.

In the face of death we declare our unyielding faith in God. He is our only hope.

As for the sentence being flung in our face by satan, we declare the resurrection.

We have no other answer.
