"At sunset, the people brought to Jesus all who have various kinds of sickness, and laying his hands on each one, he healed them." Luke 4:40 TNIV
Each week we have a special time of ministry at Lakewood Church when we have believers pray individually for those who have needs. We lay hands on the sick as Jesus commanded in Mark 16:17&18
Jesus said, "And these signs will accompany those who believe….they will place their hands on sick people, and they will get well."
When God dramatically healed me of cancer in 1981, I learned how important a touch from God really is. And God´s touch is not just for physical healing. We also believe God for miracles in families, financial situations,emotional health, jobs, and any other important needs that people have. We have found, through prayer, that God still works miracles in the lives of His people.
The Bible says the prayer of a righteous man is powerful and effective. Something extraordinary happens when two or more agree together in prayer. If you would like someone to pray for and with you about a need in your life, you don´t have to wait until a church service, you can pray right now at our new Pray Together section in Joel´s new website. Here, you are able to post your prayer to thousands, even millions, of believers all over the world. Just like we pray in our services for others, let others join their faith with yours and watch miracles happen. You can also agree with others in prayer and encourage others by leaving a note of thanks to God for the victories He has done in your life.
God is no respecter of persons. What He´s done in my life, He´ll do the same for you. God sent His word to heal us and to provide life. He whom the Son sets free, remember, is free indeed! Free from sickness, calamity, disease and strongholds.
Step into the authority that is yours as a child of God, the authority that says, "Sickness, you have to leave in Jesus´ name."
Please pray this prayer with me:
Thank You, Lord, for sending Your Word to heal us. You never change–Your Word always brings healing. I´m glad my family and I are delivered from the destructions the enemy has planned for us. I believe that You heal and deliver us daily.
Jesus, I thank You that You never change and that You still want to touch me, answer my prayers, and bring the miracles I need in my life. I´m glad that You´re still working miracles today.
