The Gospels - MiraclesSample

James 5 has one of the best verses in the Bible that fills us with faith that God can heal us. When someone is sick, we can pray! It’s God’s power that brings healing and wholeness to us. Prayer is powerful and when people pray, miracles can happen!

When we pray for healing, there might be an immediate instant miracle. The sickness or pain might leave right away! God is so powerful that nothing is too hard for Him, and we can believe for miracles like this.

Sometimes healing may take time. We might find that a sickness or injury takes a few weeks, months, or years to heal. God designed our bodies in an amazing way that over time the body heals and is restored. We can help our body to heal by taking good care of it and resting! Doctors hear of sickness or broken bones that heal in miraculous time. When we listen to God and obey the good advice of doctors, we can see God’s healing miracle help our bodies to get better. We may find amazing healing from God through the right medicine and treatment.

When we take good care of the body God has given us by resting, eating nourishing food, and exercising, we can stay strong and healthy.

God promises that through Jesus, we will live forever in Heaven. In Heaven there is no sickness or disease. While we are on earth, we may face sickness and disease and healing may come through God’s miracle power, but we know that no matter what, when we have eternal life with God, we will have healed and whole bodies in Heaven.

In whatever way God chooses to heal us, it’s all in His timing and His way. We have faith that God can and will heal, and even when it doesn’t happen in the way we think, we keep having faith.
