Not Seeing Improvement?

So there’s a syndrome of sorts keeping people from seeing healing. Here’s a list of the syndrome symptoms: Have you seen partial healing but not all? Do you go back and forth from bad to better and back? Do you seek to improve your health but fail to see signs that indicate that you are improving? Do other people seem to think you are improving but you fail to see it? Do you believe God’s Word tells you you’re healed yet you also disagree that you are healed based on remaining symptoms? Yes yes and yes! It sounds like you have The Sergeant Schultz Syndrome. This comedian always claimed “I see nothing!” even though he did see! You have become so accustomed to the problem health issue, that when you see your body improving, you excuse it away.

For Example: your ability to do more than what you could before or more than your diagnosis allows is happening, however, your natural mind has an excuse for it all. Someone or even you may notice by the Holy Spirit that you are doing things you couldn’t do before but you’ve excused it saying “I’m getting better at getting things done even though nothing has physically changed.” You may be doing things more independently now but you’ve declared nothing has changed, only your ability to deal with it is improving. Truth is, things are changing and your natural mind keeps telling you “pay no attention to that improvement!”

Your natural mind is the enemy here. It is the biggest deterrent to seeing 100% health there is. Natural thinking wins over supernatural or our spiritual mind all too often only because we need to renew our minds and train ourselves to believe that healing is happening; you see even though healing actually is occurring it’s our natural thinking which convinces is that it isn’t.

The natural mind is at enmity toward the spiritual mind for the natural mind cannot understand things that are spiritually discerned. Paraphrased from 1 Cor 2:14

Learning this about the natural mind is helpful. We must understand that Satan cannot do much to us at all but our natural mind can cause things in our body to happen. Fear causes allergic reactions to rise up. Rashes, difficulty breathing, inability to move or speak, anything can be and is caused by our natural mind. Thoughts can be sent to us by Satan which in turn cause the body to react. But that’s all the devil can do. So learn and practice how to cause your body to act correctly every day. Believe it is getting better, is healing, is improving and acknowledge everything that seems to be improved. Look for it and your health will soon be under your control as it should be!

“But I discipline my body and keep it under control, lest after preaching to others I myself should be disqualified.” 1 Cor‬ ‭9:27‬ ‭
