Dear Believer,

I do understand what you are saying. So many people are living in the realm of reason and not in the realm of faith. Prayer is the most powerful thing we Christians can do for others, no matter what their need. It does not matter what issue we are facing, the power of prayer is amazing. Doctors are wonderful and we are blessed to have them, but they do not know everything. Remember, they are practicing physicians. Only Dr. Jesus has ALL the answers for all issues of life.

It is sad when someone who says I am a Christian does not know prayer should always be first. Yes, we need to help people in need with physical help also. We need to do both! Matthew 21:22 says, And whatever things you ask in prayer, believing, you will receive. Notice the words believe and receive. Another great scripture is James 5:15: And the prayer of faith will save the sick, and the Lord will raise him up. And if he has committed sins, he will be forgiven. With faith-prayers the Lord saves and raises! The prayers come first before the answer!

In this great country, we can pray anywhere and anytime. That should cause the child of God to use the most powerful tool they have to change the course of things. If we really believe it is God’s will to heal and deliver, then we need to trust and believe and start praying. One prayer all of us should pray is for every Christian to boldly lay hands on the sick and watch them recover!
