Does God Heal Today?

Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous man is powerful and effective.James 5:16

Religious people follow every sentence with "If it's God's will" or "I'll just leave it up to God" or "God willing". I am here to tell you that Christians know that when it comes to your well-being, God is always willing. "Dear friend, I pray that you may enjoy good health and that all may go well with you, even as your soul is getting along well". 3 John 1:2. God's help is always within reach through prayers.He wants us to pray to him for help. In Luke 18:1 Jesus told his disciples that they "should always pray and not give up." and then Jesus asked "...will not God bring about justice for his chosen ones, who cry out to him day and night?" People say that miracles don't happen anymore but I am reminding you that they are consistantly occuring. The power of God is still manifesting. Pray to God from your heart for healing and all of your other needs. Don't ever stop. Don't ever give up. God ants you well.

The Healing ministry of Jesus covers about twenty percent of the Gospel. Jesus taught his disciples how to pray and heal. He sent them to carry on his work. Wouldn't Jesus want his followers to pray for healing today? I believe He would.You need to continue to pray for healing and we (believers) need to pray for each other's healing. The bible is filled with healing scriptures:
James 5:14-15 "Is any one of you sick? He should call the elder the church to pray over him and anoint him with oil in the name of the Lord. And the prayer offered in faith will make the sick person well; the Lord will raise him up. If he has sinned, he will be forgiven."

James 5:16 we are asked to "confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed." and then told that "The prayer of a righteous man is powerful and effective."

Mark 11:23-25 Jesus further instructs to forgive when we pray "I tell you the truth, if anyone says to this mountain, `Go, throw yourself into the sea,' and does not doubt in his heart but believes that what he says will happen, it will be done for him. Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours. And when you stand praying, if you hold anything against anyone, forgive him, so that your Father in heaven may forgive you your sins."

My dear friend, be assured that God wants you well, that prayers work and that miracles still happen. Don't you ever give up. Don't you ever stop praying.

Praise the Lord!
