Re: Psychotropic Drugs in Religious Rituals

Speaking of diabetics. I knew a diabetic who was healed by God. The pastor and others gathered around him in church and prayed for God to heal him. He asked the pastor if he should stop taking his medication, and the pastor told him to keep taking it, but trust Jesus. Within a week, the man was getting really really sick. He went to see his doctor and apparently it was the insulin making him ill. So, he was taken off the insulin and showed no signs of diabetes. He was healed!

The point is, taking medication doesn't negate Jesus' healing power. This isn't an "either/or" circumstance. Jesus is so awesome, you can take your meds, be miraculously healed, and ditch the meds upon confirmation of your miracle. So if you're reading this and taking any medication (natural or synthetic), don't worry about if you should ditch your meds or if you're committing some sin in taking medication. Pray for healing and just trust Jesus. Healing will come in accordance to His will and timing. Your medications can't stop or hinder Christ's healing power when God choose to heal you.

So, if you're reading this and wondering if you should stop taking your meds, the answer is no. You don't have to stop taking your meds. Just pray for healing, take your meds, and trust God.
