THE PRAYER
JOHN 4:27-54, 5:1-30

God was really amazing! When I was having my devotion, I started with this prayer;
Lord, I thank You for healing my throat.
I also thank You for healing my mom,
my aunt and my family.
I prayed that because I remember last week, we have a healing service on our Power House Wednesday. We have a series that talks about the Miracles of Jesus, and our topic was the Miracle Healing Power of Jesus (Lk 17:11-19). God reminded me to thank Him for healing my swelling throat, for the successful operation of my mother, for the healing of my aunt and my whole family.
I pray that You may heal me completely
from all sicknesses and diseases.
Heal me “holistically”, my body (sicknesses and diseases),
my soul (emotion), my spirit (from death to life, heal me from sinning).
Then, in my devotion, chapter 5, verse 14 of John, it says there that, “Behold, thou art made whole: sin no more, lest a worse thing come unto thee”. The verse hit me. Then, I smiled and prayed again, “…that’s why I’m praying Lord that You may heal me “holistically”.
Then, I sang the song Heal me, Oh Lord by Don Moen.
And then it seem’s like there’s a tickle that I felt after that (for I was still smiling after I prayed). After that prayer, I continued on reading, in verse 26 it says that, “For as the Father hath life in himself; so hath he given to the Son to have life in himself”. And in verse 24, “Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life.”
Ah, answered prayers. The Lord is really answering all my prayers. With the smile in my face, I ended up thanking the Lord for everything. But when I was praying, God reminded me again of my other prayer.
God, help me to experience a Father-son relationship.
Teach me and help me to do Your will.
Not my will or my plans or
the way I want it
I’m so tired of my hands in the way
So reveal to these eyes the true heart of my Father, today
Lord teach me how to pray
Some part of the prayer was from the song Teach Me How To Pray by Jason Upton.
if I want to see the heart of the Father, It’s in His words…
This message was also given to me last week, in John Chapter 1. The Lord was speaking to us, all we have to do is to listen, to remember, and to obey.
