Did you know I pray for my friends' health issues?

Yes, I most certainly do!!! I will pray long and hard, in every way I know how to pray and with friends who also believe in God's healing ways, whenever I hear of a friend in need. (!!!)

In fact, while in Israel, I prayed for one young woman who had knee problems --- she had to walk another fifth of a mile to get to her tour bus, but the pain in her knees was almost unbearable. I asked if I could pray for Jesus to heal her, so that he would be glorified. She nodded an enthusiastic "YES!!" after the interpreter translated (into Spanish, I think) what she'd said.

So I prayed in Jesus' authority, laying hands on her knees. She got up and walked the rest of the way and told me through the interpreter that her knees didn't hurt anymore! That's God for you! Praise be to Yeshua/Jesus!!!

I will pray for any friend who asks for prayer-- Jesus wants to hear all about us, he died and rose again to deliver us of our sins AND diseases.

2579 day(s) ago Hi Philosopher! Yes, I know you pray as well. I'm glad you do --- very good. Issues that include others' free will, such as in politics, are more compilcated to pray into or even to know how to pray, I often find. Much wisdom is needed.

2579 day(s) ago Yes Tris I agree. People are not evil because their Political views are different. I have a Dermatologist who is very Consecrative. I have told him I am an Independent Moderate. He preaches to me. I respectfully disagree sometimes or say little. My Dermatologist has Thyroid Cancer and I do pray he will survive. He is a wonderful doctor and researcher. I heard that my Dermatologist was not always wealthy. I am saddened by the fact that when many people become wealthy they forget what it is like for people who are not. Despite that my husband and I worked hard most of our life's we are not Millionaire's. Some of our family members are Millionaires. They preach to us too. I try not to argue but sometimes they go too far. Some seem very immoral to me because I see being self absorbed as immoral. I can not watch decent people suffer and feel No compassion. Many of them can. They seem to feel they are above it all. Until things directly impact their immediate families and than they look to us for compassion. I have given up on trying to enlighten them. My focuses is always my son and others like him. If God exist this is the purpose he,she,it gave me. This is why I go on despite what I endure in this world. Happy Saturday Tris and Kraven.

2578 day(s) ago I'm reminded of how the God of the Scriptures judged his own people, the Israelites, when they ignored the needs of the orphans and widows: he let them be overtaken by surrounding nations --- he dispossessed them of the very land he'd promised to them. God gave many conditional promises to his people and how they treated the poor in their midst was the main criteria for whether or not the Israelites would be successful in maintaining a healthy, stable life on the land. He's the same God today as then: there is a special blessing in store for all who will defend the orphan and the widow in our midst. May God bless you in many ways as you continue to defend those around you who aren't cared for in our societies.
