It now less than twenty-four hours I just had bilateral knee surgery. And a flash back to my childhood occurred. I was remembering my granny teaching me to kneel down and say my prayers. I was only three years old and learnt to say “in the name of the Father Son and the Holy Spirit,” as I knelt on my knees besides the bed at my granny’s house. I’ve learnt from an very early age to humble myself before the Lord. My granny was one of the first as far as I can remember to teach myself and my siblings about the God. I recalled the first Bible my grandmother give us kids one day. It was a picture Bible as they called it back then. My favourite Bible story was when Jesus fed the five thousand with the little boys lunch consisting of five loaves and two fish, John 6:5-13. The picture illustration of the five loaves and two fish was very life like, I use to visualize myself there eating with Jesus and all the people.
Like my grandmother I myself teaches my grandchildren to pray. It’s always prayer time at my home, Joshua 24:15 “As for me and my household, we will serve the Lord.” We give thank and blessings our food before we began to eat, it’s preyer time when you rise up in the morning and before you go tho bed. From one lessons taught by a granny to another.
I’ve learned through the years as I’ve grown spiritually that many part of our bodies are under spiritual attacks unknowingly. Especially if you pray and fast a lot. I believe myself to be what is called a prayer warrior. On my knees is where I fight my battles, humbling before my Lord and saviour at His throne of grace and mercy and I never lost a battle. I put my plea before Him on my knees and He allows me to know He’s got me, the battle is His. “So I stand still and see His salvation in my life.”
Now the enemy wants to take a way my process of victory which is my knees. But I guarantee you devil, if I have to crawl on my belly to humble before the Lord, I will. Whatever it would take for me to reach my Lord, I shall. If not in the physical I know I can in the spiritual. So however the enemy tries to block you the Lord will make another way.
I know the healing of these knees is going to be a fight for me, but the Lord has this. Romans 8:28 “And we know all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.” Psalm 30:5 “Weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning.” And I am weeping now!
