doctor says "your baby will die today", Jesus says something else!!!

we were asked to come and minister to a woman who personally is fighting for her own life as she battles cancer and also for the life of her prematurely born daughter who is still in the intensive care unit. the timing of our visit was incredible. even as we are finishing a time of ministering healing prayer for the cancer, the phone rings and the woman is being summoned to the hospital because the words of the doctor were that "your baby will die today". Desert Princess and her friend made arrangements to go to the hospital with the woman and all the while we are declaring "your baby will LIVE and NOT DIE". They went and had the chance to pray for a long time for the baby in the hospital.

needless to say, it has been a week now and the baby is still alive!

So often people hear the pronouncement of a doctor and they treat it like it is a prophetic word from the Lord. I have seen this so many times. At a time when God would have us fight, would have us contend in prayer for a victory, Christians practically have a person in grave because a doctor has made a pronouncement. We MUST agree with heaven - when God says somebody will die, then we can change gears - but until that time, the Divine Command remains unchanged - "heal the sick" (Matt. 10).
