We are always vigilant in our prayers. We are a church here at Canton Community Church that prays fervently. Well, we have answers to prayers this week that have brought great joy to which the Lord deserves all the glory.
The Lord has healed two people. One of bowel cancer and the other of prostate cancer.
They have come through their treatment and have been told that the cancer they had is no longer present by professional doctors in the NHS. They are healed. Here are the prayers prayed over the last 8 months.
We serve a God who still heals today. We thank God for listening to prayer.
YES PRAYER WORKS! So, if you have a loved one, friends or a complete stranger you have heard of who is unwell, pray for them, and keep praying, because when you pray things happen. Here is ACTS 4 v 23 – 31, the disciples of Jesus prayed for healing, we should as well.
Acts 4 v 23 – 31
The Believers Pray
23 On their release, Peter and John went back to their own people and reported all that the chief priests and the elders had said to them. 24 When they heard this, they raised their voices together in prayer to God. “Sovereign Lord,” they said, “you made the heavens and the earth and the sea, and everything in them. 25 You spoke by the Holy Spirit through the mouth of your servant, our father David:
“‘Why do the nations rage
and the peoples plot in vain?
26 The kings of the earth rise up
and the rulers band together
against the Lord
and against his anointed one.
27 Indeed Herod and Pontius Pilate met together with the Gentiles and the people of Israel in this city to conspire against your holy servant Jesus, whom you anointed. 28 They did what your power and will had decided beforehand should happen. 29 Now, Lord, consider their threats and enable your servants to speak your word with great boldness. 30 Stretch out your hand to heal and perform signs and wonders through the name of your holy servant Jesus.”
31 After they prayed, the place where they were meeting was shaken. And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and spoke the word of God boldly.
In verse 30 they requested Jesus heal people in prayer. Jesus certainly did and has through our prayers. All we did was pray Jesus did the miracle.
We thank God for this wonderful news this last week.
