Sickness and death are part of the human condition, but the God we serve is still in the business of healing. He does this through miracles and doctors. Praise Him in faith that he sees and knows.
"Is anyone among you sick? Let them call the elders of the church to pray over them and anoint them with oil in the name of the Lord. And the prayer offered in faith will make the sick person well; the Lord will raise them up. If they have sinned, they will be forgiven." James 5:14-15 (ESV).
"But he was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was on him, and by his wounds we are healed."Isaiah 53:5 (ESV).
"He said to her, 'Daughter, your faith has healed you. Go in peace and be freed from your suffering.'" Mark 5:34 (ESV).
The Lord sustains him on his sickbed; in his illness you restore him to full health.” Psalm 41:3 ( ESV).
