God Still Heals
But Jesus looked at them and said, “With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.” – Matthew 19:26
Years ago, we discovered that my wife had a tumor in her back. Once she was able to get an MRI, the doctors were able to see that the tumor was the size of a grapefruit. That was on a Friday, and we scheduled a biopsy for the following Monday.
After we found out on Friday about my wife’s tumor, our church prayed specifically that weekend that God would heal her. When we went back to the doctor on Monday, the doctor did another MRI to ensure he had the right location. After that, he called us into his office and said, “I don't understand this.” He put up the MRI from Friday, and he pulled up the brand-new MRI from Monday. He said, “This is the same spine. There's a herniated disc at L4, but that mass is not there any longer. I don't know what happened.”
My wife looked at me and said, “Am I going to get a biopsy or what?” He said, “Sweetheart, there's nothing there to biopsy!”
Our God heals!
You don't have to go to a Pentecostal church to expect that God heals. He has healed people in our church physically. He has done miracles, just like He’s always done. In His mercy, God heals to give glory and honor to Christ.
After God healed my wife, a man from our church walked up to me after service and was clearly in tears. He said, “You know, this is the first prayer for healing that I've ever prayed that God answered. It blessed my life that I got to be part of praying for your wife.”
Sometimes, the sign of healing is to encourage God's people. Sometimes, it is to point lost people to Jesus. Either way, healing is a means for God to bring glory to Himself and show that He is capable of doing the impossible! Many have come to faith in Christ because of the healing work of God. Therefore, we don’t need to lose confidence and hope in the fact that our God always has been and continues to be a God of healing!

I had dizzy spells for several months and 3 doctors could not diagnose it or treat it. I prayed to God to keep me from falling. My prayers were answered, I am now free from the dizziness. Praise God.
My friends and I have a friend who is alive today because we prayed over her two different times before surgery. And there have been many times since then that we pray for healing for each of us and others. Your wife is a good example for us to pray to our healing and loving Father
This just brings tears of praise
Psalm 126:
3 The Lord has done great things for us,
and we are filled with joy
pray for a lot of people when I'm told that they need it. Some of the prayers do get results I'm sure if it was my prayer only. This is a normal on my Twitter account. But it seems when I need prayer I never get help from others. Right now we're going through a lot of stuff with our daughter she has cancer. Sometimes when I pray for myself nothing never gets answered and that is a big let down. I haven't gave up on the praying and I will continue to pray for people that ask for it and i will do it even if they dont.
Hi Danny, I'll be praying for your daughter. What is her name and age please? I have 2 prayer groups and will put her on both of them. Never give give up, never give in. We serve a mighty GOD. He answers prayers. GOD BLESS you
Several years ago, Danny, I was rushed into hospital for a gall bladder operation. While there I was able to pray for the woman in the next bed who was awaiting an operation for cancer. She went down but soon returned because they could no longer find the growth. Praise God. I prayed for a woman in the bed opposite, and she gave her life to the Lord and then went home. We stayed in communication for some time. I was also used to encourage a Christian nurse, who I also remained in friends with for some time. In spite of all these answers to prayer I had to go through my own surgery and suffer through the painful, though shortened, recovery period.
We never know how Abba will respond to prayer, but do not give up. I have already prayed for your daughter and asked for His will to be done on earth, as it is in Heaven, for there is no sickness and pain in Heaven. May your daughter know the overwhelming favour of the Lord, and I pray you will be encouraged by the Holy Spirit who lives inside of you.
I 🙏 each and every day that GOD Almighty Will heal or give strength to someone in need. Whether it be Family , Friends, or person I don't even know. I Believe that GOD hears and answers prayer PRAISE God For ALL Grace and Mercy. Thank You Lord JESUS !
That is a wonderful meracle.
Amen. God does heal Physically and mentally
Well put.
