A Prayer for the Sick
By Emma Danzey

James 5:14 says, “Is anybody amongst you sick? Allow them to name the elders of the church to wish over them and anoint them with oil within the title of the Lord.”

Whether or not it’s a pesky weeklong chilly in the course of the begin of the autumn climate, a persistent sickness, or a severe illness. We or folks we all know live life right this moment with illness. God didn’t intend for us to be sick on this world. Our our bodies had been completely designed to be wholesome and robust. Nonetheless, after we sinned and darkness entered the world, sicknesses got here to be.

There are occasions within the Bible when folks believed that illness was a punishment for sin. In John 9, Jesus is therapeutic a blind man, and His personal disciples requested who sinned in his household.

John 9:2-3 says, “And His disciples requested Him, “Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his mother and father, that he was born blind?” Jesus answered, “Neither this man nor his mother and father sinned, however this occurred in order that the works of God can be displayed in him.”

In fact, some sicknesses on this world is usually a results of earlier choices made; nevertheless, the vast majority of the time, illness is just a results of the autumn. Nonetheless, I really like how in John 9, Jesus factors out that the blind man’s mother and father by no means sinned for him to be born blind; he was given blindness so God’s glory can be displayed. Immediately we’re going to pray this over those that are sick in our lives. Jesus did heal this man and provides him sight, so He’s nonetheless our Healer who can take away diseases and illnesses from this world; nevertheless, if He doesn’t, we will know with confidence that He can use it for a objective higher than ourselves.

James 5:14
