Jeff, your description of the Holy Spirit’s promptings and persistence is very accurate. I have experienced exactly the same thing in numerous circumstances. However, I have not healed anyone.

I do know that I am stubborn, not wanting to act on the first prompting, because I want confirmation that it is from the Lord and not just from me. So, the Holy Spirit is patient with me and allows me to recieve a second or third prompting which seals the deal and then I do what I am told.

Sometimes, we are used by God because no one else will do. It is awesome when that happens.

Thanks exit82! Yes, when God needs something done, he keeps going until he gets our attention! This was one of those times! LOL. :D
