About Last Night…

I organize a women’s bible study and for awhile I was beginning to wonder what are we really doing. Well last night, it happen. We took ACTION. We received word that one of the ladies was at the emergency room and they were about to start running a bunch of tests. None of which sounded good if the results came back positive. We immediately prayed and then continued with the study. Another call came in, we prayed again and then attempted to study again. And then it hit me

James 5:13-16

13Is any one of you in trouble? He should pray. Is anyone happy? Let him sing songs of praise. 14Is any one of you sick? He should call the elders of the church to pray over him and anoint him with oil in the name of the Lord. 15And the prayer offered in faith will make the sick person well; the Lord will raise him up. If he has sinned, he will be forgiven. 16Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous man is powerful and effective.

We were her church. We were being called. With that we left and went to the hospital. 11 women walked into the emergency room together and took over. 2 went back to the room while the other 9 prayed.  Each time we got an update, we prayed, and then the symptom disappeared.

Lions attack what is alone. They will not attack what is bigger than himself. I like to imagine that as we marched in we grew bigger and bigger and he began to shake. Our image was probably a little blurry to the enemy, he just knew something was coming. As we approached and he gained his focus and looked up from the pit he is in… He saw Jesus.  And then he tucked his tail and ran out like the coward he is.

Last night was awesome. Our study this week was on healing. Coincidence. I think NOT.
