JUST DO IT!
Religious debate is were we many times go wrong. Religion would argue rather than see someone delivered.
An example of this is in Luke 13:10-17. Jesus heals a woman who has been bent over for 18 years. Jesus called her a daughter of Abraham and set her free. She had been bound for nearly two decades and at that moment you and I would go rejoicing and praising God for her deliverance, but not the religious of the times.
They were upset because he healed on the Sabbath, now think on how we get caught up in religion and our philosophy and loose sight of the word. Questions arise such as ( maybe it isn't Gods will.) (maybe God wants to show or teach us something.) [ MAYBE!], Doubt, fear,unbelief all come into play, it is what keeps us bound. The rulers in the church had six days a week for 18 years to pray for this woman and never did anything. And when Jesus did it on the Sabbath they used it against Him. We do much the same thing by our doubts and questions. If someone needs healing or deliverance step out in faith
( GODS WORD),Walk by faith not by sight,speak to that mountain, Speak it from your heart not from theology. The question isn't why we don't see the deliverance but WHY WE HAVEN'T DELIVERED THEM? There is a difference between religion and loving, Love acts and doesn't question. Choose love and act now in Christ Jesus, and if we fail to act may we be put to shame.......

'His mother said to the servants 'Do whatever He tells you'. That word still stands, we must endeavour not to argue with or question whatever the Lord instructs us to do in any circumstance. Peter was walking on water at the Lords instruction, until he took His eyes off Him. It was the fear of his circumstance and his mind set on the physical that caused Peter to cease to receive the supernatural happening that Jesus words can bring into being.
