Hello,i have had alot of diabetic nerve pain on my left foot and whole left leg.i am trying to know through prayer if having the pain so strong and painful is The Cross God Wants me to Carry.Being Diabetic is A Cross,i do not mind carrying,but i may consider a major operation,i could give up 1/2 of my left leg,but i do not want to do it if it is not Gods Will for Glorifing Him In My Body. see 1 cor.10:31 ii want that in all aspects of my life as a christian.Does God use pain to encourage,bless and bring His heavenly Kingdom into a Christians Life.
 
in my sniffing around the web, i found that Alpha Lipoic Acid in doses of 600-900 mg/day is supposed to have some affect on nerve regrowth and slowing down of neuropathy. just an idea.

but still praying for you over this issue....
 
Father your son is in pain...
Through Jesus we believe OFM can be healed.

1 Peter 2:24 & 25
24 “He himself bore our sins” in his body on the cross, so that we might die to sins and live for righteousness; “by his wounds you have been healed.” 25 For “you were like sheep going astray," but now you have returned to the Shepherd and Overseer of your souls.

With confidence we pray that OFM is redeemed from the curse of sickness!
Because we reverence and worship you Lord...we have assurance of Your word that you will deliver him from pain!
God abide in OFM mind, body and spirit! Your word is medication and life to his flesh!
OFM is covered by the Armor of God; and the evil one cannot touch him!
In Jesus mighty and powerful Name, Amen
 
Father in the name of Jesus we rebuke this sickness and we speak life in these limbs and complete healing
Thank you for hearing and answering this, and we consider it done, your word conquers and goes forth
You said if two agree it shall be done, all for your glory!
 
thanks every one 4 all ur prayers bless you all i pray 4 you all 2 amen all ways amen
 
OFM, praying in Jesus for all healing , care, comfort and understanding for you.
And yes I will witness to, God does bring His presance and glory, when we give over our flesh, even the painful kind , to Him in Jesus.

For God answered, my grace is sufficient for you. :)

Hugs and God bless

Love the hippo by the way :).

Heavenly father I pray right now that OFM would be aware of your presense and sense your will for his life. That it does not include hurt and pain but that you have a plan for him.

OFM you need to read Jeremiah 29 v 11 and really take it to heart. "For I know the plans I have for you declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future"

I prayer that this pain shall just disapate and go in the name of Jesus and the cause of this pain whatever it may be, will go.

I pray that you will reveal to OFM your plans for His life and the directions you want him to take step by step each day. I prayer that OFM would just sense your great love for him and that he would be at peace knowing that you are watching over him.


Hi i thought I would share this with you - hope you dont mind.

7 years ago I become really ill with an oveactive thyroid - graves disease. My levels were so high they were off the scale and could not be measured at one point. For nearly 3 years I had to go every 6 weeks to the hospital for checks and inbetween times, go to my own doctor for blood tests. It was so wearing and I got really fed up of feeling ill all the time.

I had to take beta blockers to slow my heart rate down - my resting heart rate was over 100 beats per minute and just a simple thing like walking around the house made it shoot up way to high I later found out that I was at risk of having a heart attack. I developed a goiter where your throat swells, tremers, hot sweats, could not sleep at night due to palputations and a whole host of other symptons, including problems with my liver function. The medication given to me by the hospital did not work too well, they just could not get the balance right so at times I swung the other way and developed an underactive thyroid.

Anyway several times the doctors raised the possibility of radioactive iodine treatment which would basically have destroyed my thyroid function and then I would have been underactive for the rest of my life. But I just felt that God did not want this for me. It was not a cure, it would just have created a different illness which from their perspective was easier to treat.

Anyway one day I just got sick and tired of being sick and tired and while I had prayed about this before, this time I really meant business and I think I was at an end of myself. I really prayed to God about the whole situation and I just felt that God had answered my prayer, even though physically I did not immediately feel any different.

Well the next time I went to hospital a few weeks later, the doctor told me my levels were the best they had seen, and I was starting to feel better also. From that point on things began to change as I continued to improve. It was not an overnight miracle, but it was definately a God moment as the healing process continued. For the last 4 years I have been completely free of this awful illness without any lasting side effects and with my thyroid gland intact and functioning normally.

Instant miracles can and do happen but I have since heard many testimonies where God moves over a situation and it gradually comes together. You need to keep praying, pressing in and trusting and seek Gods guidance no matter what. ;)

Bless you.
 
I think that he does Jeff. I think that the testimony is that you are in a lot of pain and despite that pain you still turn your face up to Him and you trust Him. That a lone I think brings glory to Him sweetie. I will lift you up in prayers every night from here on out okay?
 
OFM, The questions I would ask are:

1) What type of Diabetes have you got, Insulin dependant (Type I) or Non-Insulin dependant (Type II)?

2) Have you got your blood sugar levels under control, ie < 7 mmol/l (fasting level)?

3) How do you control blood sugar levels?

ALL the pathologies in Diabetes arise from this one thing, a sustained blood sugar level of > 7 mmol/l and these pathologies are NOT reversible once they occur; the only way they could be healed is if the Lord heals them...

My suggestion would be to get your blood sugar levels under control (if they are not already) and earnestly and persistently seek healing from Jesus...Isaiah 53v4 with Matt 8v16,17.

Yahweh Shalom
 
type 2 yes blood sugarpretty good a1c at 7.5 thats excellent i take insulin lantus and humalog use insluin pens.sometimes this just happens.
