I could share one! When I first met the Lord... I made a decision to try and serve Him and become a Missionary and I guess a lot of times the 1st thing that happens when you make that decision is the Devil tries to attack youand discourage you in whatever way possible. Anyway I made this commitment and then the next day I reallystarted getting sick with the flu. It was a normal thing and though unpleasant I didn't think too much about it, but one person I knew... Nat told me, "Hey God can Heal you" and I thought that sounds strange and a bit out there. He said "No really He can".There are promises in the Bible that you can claimand God can do it and I kind of laughed, but feeling like mud with a fever and sore throat and the runs and thought,"well OK I guess I can try".He showed me a verse he liked from Psalms 103:3 "Who Forgives All Our Iniquities (Sins) and heals all our diseases." So Being new to all this I just said a very simple prayer, Lord I'm trying to serve you and give my life to you and I can't do a very good job if I'm sick so I claim that verse... Psalms 103:3 and Ask that you heal me.Very Simple and Believing Prayer.

After the prayer over the next 20 or 30 minutes I started feeling, bit by bit, better and better and suddenly I realized... I felt fine. I thought ... WOW this Prayer for Healing thing Works! It really encouraged my faith and many times over the last 35 years I have been sick with this and that and the other and just said a simple believing prayer like that and was healed. Sometimes I didn't get well,but I've learned also that God has a reason for sickness to humble us and get us on our back and get our attention. The Most uncomfortable place for a Christian is a comfortable place and sometimes God sends trouble or sickness to keep us disparate and close to him. That being said I also thinksome people over complicate the whole thing and refuse to ask for healing or refuse to believe that it's possible for them and for Now!That was all for a long Time Ago and God dosen't do that now... which is just a load of Cow Manure... if you'll forgive my French. God is Still Upon the Throne and Prayer Changes Things! Jesus Christ the Same Yesterday, Today and Forever! We'd do well not to forget that!
