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 an audience wit

A Giving Heart

  A GIVING HEART “ Then the people rejoiced, for that they offered willingly, because with perfect heart they offered willingly to the LORD: and David the king also rejoiced with great joy.” (1 Chronicles 29:9) Israel’s people brought gifts for the construction of the holy temple in Jerusalem, it is mentioned no less than six times in this chapter that their offerings were willing offerings. In fact, they were not only willing but it also brought rejoicing in their hearts. They were building a worship house. It was a sacred place, a place belonging to all who would come to worship. Joyful giving is not the usual response to a fundraising effort for a religious cause by modern church leaders. The parishioners follow the attitude of their chosen pastors and often the pastor tickles their ears to encourage giving. The great proliferation of solicitation of money today by media broadcast has developed a growing cynicism in Christians toward all tithing. Further, misuse of col

This Day

  Each Day We can only live each day in its time frame. Yesterday, with its ups and downs is passed never to return. Tomorrow is a vision of hope not yet on the horizon. Today is the day the Lord has given us. Let Each Day We can only live each day in its time frame. Yesterday, with its ups and downs is passed never to return. Tomorrow is a vision of hope not yet on the horizon. Today is the day the Lord has given us. Lets make the best soldier for Him that we can while the day passes into yesterday. Each day bares its on unique set of events. Some recognizable some masked in ignorance. As we near the dawning of a new day, calling upon the Lord is a necessary activity. If we neglect the creat o r and giver of the new day, we simply cannot have a right spirit. Joy comes in the morning only through God’s book of promises. You can depend upon them unless the bible is shelved drawing dust. Open the new day with prayer and an open book. 1 Timothy 4: 4 “ For every creature of God
