In Most Cases, It Is God’s Will To Heal In Answer To Prayer, Part 3 (The Prayer Motivator Devotional #177) - Ministry Videos

Our prayer motivator verse from the Word of God today is Psalm 22:5 which reads: “They cried unto thee, and were delivered: they trusted in thee, and were not confounded.”

Our prayer motivator quote today is from E.M. Bounds. He said: “Those who know God the best are the richest and most powerful in prayer. Little acquaintance with God, and strangeness and coldness to Him, make prayer a rare and feeble thing.”

Our prayer motivator devotional today is the 3rd and final part of our series titled “IN MOST CASES, IT IS GOD’S WILL TO HEAL IN ANSWER TO PRAYER” from Dr. John R. Rice. Dr. Rice said…

I think sometimes a Christian should be hungry, sometimes be out in winter’s cold without a bed, or without sufficient clothes, for Christ’s sake. We should be willing to suffer for Him. Paul and many other of the best Christians have suffered these things. But usually that is not God’s will. Ordinarily, Christians should pray for and get daily bread and sufficient clothing.

So, I believe, ordinarily Christians can go to God in sickness and be healed. So Christians should learn to go earnestly and confidently to God in prayer every time they are sick and ask for healing. If the Holy Spirit plainly reveals that it is not God’s will to heal, then we, like Paul, should gladly accept the will of God, knowing it is better than anything else we can ask. Remember, prayer is not telling God; it is asking God.
