Healing Passage - James 5:13-16
13 Is anyone among you suffering? Let him pray. Is anyone cheerful? Let him sing psalms. 14 Is anyone among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the church, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord. 15 And the prayer of faith will save the sick, and the Lord will raise him up. And if he has committed sins, he will be forgiven. 16 Confess your trespasses to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much.
Tip 1: You're not Alone
The ministry of healing is an important ministry of the church. God's love and power are available to all who come to him in faith. Do you need to experience the Lord's healing grace? God definitely will hear your prayers! These verses in the Epistle of James also encourage us to invite others into the process, especially those with maturity and insight who know how to get a prayer through! Sometimes we may be too weak to fight the battle of sickness on our own. There is no shame in seeking the help of others who are willing to intercede on our behalf. As members of Christ's body, we truly need one another. Call on someone who is full of faith to pray for you today! Ask the elders of your church or faith community to intercede for you. The prayer of a righteous man or woman is powerful and effective!

IN PURSUIT OF WHOLENESS
I have seen God bring salvation, healing, and restoration to his people in powerful ways. These wonderful blessings are often received through prayer and meditation on God’s Word. I invite you to read and study the teachings and exercises in my book In Pursuit of Wholeness: Experiencing God’s Salvation for the Total Person. I believe that this work will help build your trust in God and enable you to approach him with greater confidence. Follow the link for more information on this resource.
TESTIMONIES
Do you have a healing testimony? Please let us hear from you! Also, please consider making a financial contribution to Wilfred Graves Ministries to help us continue our ministry of salvation and healing. We would like to build or locate a physical space (a "healing house") for hurting people to receive prayer, pastoral counseling, and other kinds of personal ministry on a regular basis.
