This coming Sunday the individual prayer for health and healing will be offered in worship. This prayer is holistic in nature for the healing of body, mind, and spirit. I offer the prayer twice a year.
We remember that Jesus had a three-fold ministry that was made up of preaching, teaching, and healing. I think sometimes that the church has given short shrift to this third aspect of Jesus' ministry. Jesus in his public ministry wanted people to experience the kingdom of God by experiencing healing.
Jesus had a desire that people would find wholeness. I think we have the same desire today for ourselves - not only that we would be physically healed, but also that emotionally we would find stability, and also know that we can find healing for any brokenness we have in our relationship we have with God.
This service also includes praying for those making important medical decisions. Some of these decisions are tough to make in regard to a course of treatment. We pray for God's guidance in the decisions that are made.
Is there a way in which you need healing in your life? Will you allow Jesus to help you find wholeness for yourself?
