Healing prayer meditation   for Saturday — January 23, 2016

The words of Jesus are spirit and life. John 6:63.

Jesus said "ask, and you will receive; seek and you will find; knock and it shall be opened to you." Jesus invites us to have a lively prayer of faith that is filled with expectation, is fervent and persistent.

So we pray for one another to be filled with every bodily and spiritual grace.   For those fighting cancer, I invoke the prayers of of St. Peregrine, the patron saint of cancer patients.  The night before a scheduled leg amputation, Jesus answered Peregrine's prayer and healed his cancerous leg.

Today let us take great hope in the promise given in James 5:16 that the prayer of faith shall save the sick, and the Lord shall raise him up. For the prayers of the faithful have great power. 

Let us pray for one another that we may be healed.

Now to him who  by the power at work within us is able to do far more abundantly than all that we ask or think, to him be glory … (Ephesians 3:20)

Blessed  be God , even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies, and God of all comfort.   Amen & Amen !
