While Dabak and I were making a pastoral visit to Box Hill Hospital this afternoon, a relative from the private room opposite called us in and requested that we pray a prayer for her mother's healing. After willingly doing this, the daughter thanked us appreciatively for taking the time to share a prayer before commenting that "the family are praying believingly for Betty's healing and recovery."
It was a case of mistaken identity for the daughter thought we were official hospital chaplains. But, praise God, it turned out to be a both a comforting and rewarding experience for all.
Matthew 21: 22 (NIV) says "If you believe, you will receive whatever you ask for in prayer."
When was the last time you prayed a genuine, believing prayer?
