“Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you” (1 Thessalonians 5:16-17). At 73 years old and I am just discovering the power of prayer in my own life - and that God really hears me. Last year I had two answers to prayer where I saw God's Hand almost immediately. I have to go to the lab monthly to give blood samples. One time the nurse I talked yo at the front desk had a terrible migraine - I got up all the courage I could muster and asked if I could pray for her - she said yes so I did. I went in to get stabbed and when I came out she gave a big smile, a tear in her eye and said the migraine was totally gone. Praise God for Jesus and His shed blood. Another time a nurse had a very sore shoulder- pulled it playing tennis. I asked and she said yes - I prayed - came out and she swung her arm around and said no pain - God is so good. I have prayed for a number of people since I do not know the results but I know God heard the prayers. I encourage you to take a chance and step out! https://youtu.be/OXsxw1fRHMA?si=WePizsB42SQR6HUT
