Dear God-tracker

GOD-TRACKING IS PUTTING YOUR CONFIDENCE IN GOD AND REFUSING TO GIVE UP!

1 Thessalonians 5:24
He who calls you is faithful; he will surely do it.

My little grandson lay on a small bed in the ICU of the children’s hospital. Pipes and cables coming from his little body, this tiny 3-week-old was connected to machines that both monitored his vital signs and sustained his life. A few days prior Ruben was rushed to hospital, gravely ill. Convulsing violently, the doctors tried to reduce his body temperature, to no avail. His little body was trembling, but not a sound came from his mouth. Suddenly my wife and I and Ruben’s parents were hastily ushered out of the small cubical, as an emergency team rushed in with resuscitation equipment. Ruben had stopped breathing. My son and his wife held each other, sobbing. Karen and I stood by a window gazing at the children’s play area outside. “Dear God, we rebuke this illness. We rebuke this death. You are the Lord our healer. Your word has instructed us to lay hands on the sick; this we’ve done. We claim Ruben’s life and healing, in Jesus’ name!”

From the start of his illness, we prayed for Ruben’s healing. The scriptures tell us that God is our healer. The Bible says that if we lay hands on the sick, they will recover. It also says that a prayer of faith shall make the sick person well. Well, Karen and I and Ruben’s parents were praying that prayer of faith. We stood on God’s Word without wavering.

Ruben was resuscitated and subsequently rushed off to the Intensive Care Unit at a children’s hospital in another town. I could tell the doctors were very concerned for him. The ICU staff were set in for the long hall in caring for little Ruben. But we had prayed! Twenty-four hours after he was admitted to ICU my grandson opened his eyes. A few days later he was on his way home. Our God is the Lord who heals!

Faith outs its confidence in the other. When one climbs aboard an aeroplane one does not have faith in his own skills to fly the craft but places his complete confidence in the one he cannot see, he who is both skilled and willing to raise him together with a couple of hundred other people, 33 thousand feet above the ground and then land them safely again at their destination. As Corrie Ten Boom said, “Faith sees the invisible, believes the unbelievable and receives the impossible.” Faith in God is confidence in his power and willingness to meet our needs, heal our sick and guide our every footstep along our life’s track.

Whatever obstacle you’re facing today; whatever your need, be it healing, provision or guidance, stand on God’s Word without wavering. He is faithful and he will do it!

God-tracking is putting your confidence in God and refusing to give up!

Every blessing

Dudley

Don’t Give Up, Look Up!

My confidence is in your power and willingness to bring healing and provision to every part of my life and the lives of my loved ones

Pray
“Oh, Father God, I believe your Word says that you are my healer. I believe your Word says that you will meet my needs according to your glorious riches, in Christ. Today I stand before you – in Christ – and place my confidence in you, alone. I do not place my confidence in myself or other people. My confidence is in your power and willingness to bring healing and provision to every part of my life and the lives of my loved ones. You are the Lord my healer! You are the Lord my provider! You are the Lord my guide! You are faithful and you will do it. Thank you, God my Father. Amen.”

GodTracker owes its origins to an international Christian radio programme produced by Dudley Anderson called, On Track. Although On Track went off-air in 2005, GodTracker has continued to help people to track God's plans and purposes for their lives since July 2003.
