Healing Power

Some years back, a young lady in her teens lay upon what appeared to be her death bed. Weeks had passed as family and friends watched her go from a vibrant and energetic girl of good health and ambition to an invalid. Her body was emancipated and she lay comatose. The place was near Natural Tunnel Virginia. “No hope,” was the prognosis. I knew the girl as Glenna. We attended Rye Cove High School before her illness. Available medical care was meager at best. Back woods people, as we were, mostly tended their own medical needs. When death was certainly immanent. Her father, a preacher by trade, called in local prayer warriors. They went to their knees around Glenna’s death bed. I was not there. I watched children so others could gather in prayer. A few hours later the godly bunch returned. The report was good. Glenna had regained consciousness and left her bed to praise God with dance and shouts. Her frail limbs were made whole and her health fully restored. The following Monday she appeared at school looking as though she had simply been on vacation. Today. Glenna is a warrior in God’s field of workers. God is good and faithful in responding to earnest prayers of His Saints.

James 5:13 “Is any among you afflicted? let him pray. Is any merry? let him sing psalms. 14  Is any sick among you? let him call for the elders of the church; and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord: 15  And the prayer of faith shall save the sick, and the Lord shall raise him up; and if he have committed sins, they shall be forgiven him. 16  Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.” 

Matthew 21:22 “And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive.

John 5:8 “Jesus saith unto him, Rise, take up thy bed, and walk. 9 And immediately the man was made whole, and took up his bed, and walked:...”

Matthew 21:22 “And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive.”
Think not that God does not hear and answer prayers. If we humble ourselves in belief, He will hear our plea and be quick to heal our infirmities; amen. Know God, know peace. 10-08-2020 BLL

Thy will be Done...the Wayfarer 3/15/19

Thy will be Done 3/15/19 Matthew 6:9-13 King James Version (KJV) 9  After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. 10  Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven. 11  Give us this day our daily bread. 12  And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors. 13  And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen. The "model " prayer, given us by Jesus, repeated daily throughout the world, by many denomination and sect, though seldom examined by those parroting the words is NOT an empty example that is to be followed by congregant, memorized by children and adult alike.  It is exactly the opposite of that emptiness, holding the essence of what SHOU LD be in the heart of the one praying. It is GOD'S will that need be sought, not just daily, but continually by all wishing ...

Remember Therefore from Whence Thou art Fallen,,the Wayfarer 3//27/13

 3//27/13 “Remember from Whence Thou art Fallen” “Remember therefore from whence thou art fallen, and repent, and do the first works; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will remove thy candlestick out of his place, except thou repent.” (Revelation 2:5) Today we touch the untouchable book of Revelation, given to us by John of Patmos, through our Savior Jesus Christ himself. This particular message is one I have given before, in places where I knew none of the congregation, and had no idea why God wouldn’t let me preach from any other scripture.  It is probably one of the most important messages for the people of today’s church to hear. It is also probably the hardest for today’s “Christians” here in our country to comprehend, and even harder to accept. Take note of the use of the phrase “ the first works” used by Jesus, we will delve deeply into the meaning of this phrase as we progress through today’s message. First, however let us back...

The Life is More than Meat...the Wayfarer 11/29/15

The Life is More than Meat  11/29/15 22  And he said unto his disciples, Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat; neither for the body, what ye shall put on. 23  The life is more than meat, and the body is more than raiment. (Luke 12:22 &23) Life is indeed more than meat, food, clothing and the things that are constantly demanding the attention of the physical, carnal man, whose concern for himself and those he considers his own, all too often revolve. Life also consists of the inner being, the soul of that man, and those he considers his own, and all others as well with whom he is in contact in the process of what is called living. It is that very essence of life, that eternal soul that holds preeminence and prominence above all physical “needs”. The necessity of a warm coat to stave off the chill of the winter’s cold is undeniably important, without it the physical body, first suffers discomfort, and if ...
