"I'm too young to have this much pain, something is permanently wrong with my body."
How it sounds in your head: Other kids don't deal with this. This isn't normal for a teenager. The doctors are confused why someone my age has this condition. Maybe my body is just defective, broken in a way that can't be fixed.
"I will restore to you the years that the swarming locust has eaten."
-- Joel 2:25Enemy attacking identity through physical pain, making age an accusation and body an enemy.
Medical professionals express surprise at the condition in someone this young, which reinforces that it's abnormal and therefore possibly unfixable. Peers don't understand which increases isolation.
Crippled in both feet from age five, written off as permanently disabled, lived in poverty and hiding. King David restored everything to him - he ate at the king's table continually despite the disability, full restoration of identity and provision.
I REFUSE the lie that my young age makes this pain worse or permanent. IT IS WRITTEN: 'I will restore to you the years that the swarming locust has eaten' - God restores stolen time and health. My body is NOT defective, it's the temple of the Holy Spirit. IT IS WRITTEN: 'By His stripes I am healed' - my age doesn't limit God's power, it means I have decades ahead to walk in divine health. I am Abraham's seed through Christ, the BARAK blessing is on my physical body. I declare complete restoration NOW.
The Father doesn't see your age as a complication - He sees His beloved son who gets to walk in health for many decades ahead. He's not frustrated by your youth, He's excited about the long life of blessing you have coming.
