“Is any sick among you? let him call for the elders of the church; and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord: and the prayer of faith shall save the sick, and the Lord shall raise him up; and if he have committed sins, they shall be forgiven him” (James 5:14, 15).
Jesus made healing available to us as one of His finished works; permanent healing is manifested when we accept His Word by faith. Neither sickness nor sin are God’s will.

“A heart at peace gives life to the body, but envy rots the bones” (Proverbs 14:30, NIV).
There’s an amazing connection between what we think and how it affects us physically, and God didn’t make any mistakes when He designed us this way. Meditating on His Word lets His peace move through us and keeps out envy and negative emotions.

“Trust ye in the Lord for ever: for in the Lord Jehovah is everlasting strength” (Isaiah 26:4).
We can’t trust in our own strength, intellectual capabilities, financial expertise, college education, or in any glittery things the world values; they’ll eventually fail us. The true source of strength that won’t crumble when everything else is sinking is found only in God.

“Continue earnestly in prayer, being vigilant in it with thanksgiving” (Colossians 4:2, NKJV).
Thanksgiving is a powerful component to our prayers that makes them more effective. Earnest prayer with the right attitude comes straight from a grateful heart.

“Now this is the confidence that we have in Him, that if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us. And if we know that He hears us, whatever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we have asked of Him” (1 John 5:14, 15, NKJV).
God always hears His children’s prayers. As our heavenly Father, He wants us to approach Him boldly, with no fear. This is plainly and simply stated, with no guesswork involved.

“Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much” (James 5:16).
Prayer is a powerful weapon that helps us win the spiritual battles we face each day. We don’t have to be perfect to pray, we just need to have the right spirit. Prayer and healing go hand in hand; when our hearts are in our prayers, God hears us.

“Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us, fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith. For the joy set before him he endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God” (Hebrews 12:1, 2, NIV).
In painful times when it’s difficult to find the strength to carry on, the Bible gives us multiple examples of perseverance. Noah and Moses demonstrated perseverance by responding in faith to God’s Word. Believers who accepted Jesus’ message learned the reality of God’s promises when Jesus was resurrected; this gave them the courage to persevere.

“You need to persevere so that when you have done the will of God, you will receive what he has promised” (Hebrews 10:36, NIV).
It’s hard to follow through on what we know is the right thing to do when life throws challenges in our face. When we’re tempted to give up and throw in the towel, God reminds us to persevere. His promises are based on what Jesus has already done; the strength to endure comes from Him.

“‘For I know the plans I have for you,’ declares the Lord, ‘plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future’” (Jeremiah 29:11, NIV).
Reading this and all the other promises God makes to us in the Scriptures reveals that He only wants good for us. Life can be a confusing puzzle, but when we study and meditate on His Word, all the puzzle pieces begin to fall into place. The big picture He envisions for us is overwhelmingly joyful.
