God still heals…
Three weeks ago i did a message titled “Jesus Heals“. We looked at what the Bible says about healing, and how i believe (according to James 5) that God has given the healing ministry to the local church.
At the end of the service i asked people who needed healing to stand, signifying the faith that God could heal them, and asking Him to do that. I then asked people from our church to go and place a hand on those who were standing, and pray for them as i prayed out loud. It was a very cool moment in each service to see the body of Christ caring and praying for each other!
Later that week i got this email from Peggy Combes, who serves at PVC. She stood last Sunday, and also had her Home Team praying for her…
Hey Pastor Dave (and Greg),
I have a short story that I want to tell
you:
Last Wednesday I had a Ultrasound done and
they found a mass on my rt kidney half its size, (rt kidney 11.5 cm, mass 5.5
cm) they set me up for a Cat Scan (done yesterday) because they believed it was
a tumor and I was going to have to have the kidney removed. I was so moved by
the message Sunday and I know because of it and the prayers of my friends and
family the test results came back today -Â the mass is completely gone – and I
know it is the healing power of our Lord. My doctor said she couldn’t explain
it but I told her I could…God answer’s prayers.
Because He first loved
us,
Peggy
How cool is that, PRAISE GOD!
