Science Proves the Healing Power of Prayer
God is calling each one of us to give more time to prayer.

Persistent, prevailing, believing prayer.

In fact, God's standard is unceasing prayer(1 Thessalonians 5:17).

Jesus prayed often. You can find many links on the internet which will point out the numerous bible verses showing when and where He prayed. Like the this one:
[link to jesusalive.cc]

Don't just think about it, don't put it off, don't think you have to be a great orator in order to speak with our Father.

Satan, our enemy, will try to keep you away from the precious privilege of prayer given to us as a child of God.

He and his cohorts will try to discourage us and put other things in our path and thought life to prevent us from praying
as we should. Be aware of his sly tactics and don't give in to the urge to procrastinate.

Pray as soon as you say you will, as soon as the thought enters your mind.
Prayer DOES change things.

For the devout, there never has been any question that prayer has the power to heal.

Now, more and more medical research from leading hospitals and universities across the U.S. has shown conclusively a
belief in God really IS good for you, making you healthier and happier, and helping you live longer.

“Studies have shown prayer can prevent people from getting sick — and when they do get sick, prayer can help them get
better faster,” Duke University’s Harold G. Koenig, M.D., tells Newsmax Health.

An exhaustive analysis of more than 1,500 reputable medical studies “indicates people who are more religious and pray
more have better mental and physical health,” Dr. Koenig says.

However, I consider my life worth nothing to me; my only aim is to finish the race and complete the task
the Lord Jesus has given me—the task of testifying to the good news of God’s grace. Acts 20:24

"This man really is the Savior of the world!" John 4:42

Look, he is coming with the clouds, and every eye will see him, even those who pierced him;
and all the peoples of the earth will mourn because of him. So shall it be! Amen.

Re: Science Proves the Healing Power of Prayer
has nothing to do with "prayer". it has to do with belief. science has proven the healing power of placebo which is belief. you are jumping to the assumption that because this prayer works then the god of the bible is the true god and jesus died on the cross for your sins and everyone who doesnt believe that goes to an eternal oven. when it was mere irrelegious placebo...belief that you will be healed.

When praying, and praying often with an attitude of reverential submission, you will be spending more time with
the Almighty God who made you. Our Creator, our Heavenly Father will be most pleased with this as this was His desire
from the beginning --to have a relationship with those He created.
However, I consider my life worth nothing to me; my only aim is to finish the race and complete the task
the Lord Jesus has given me—the task of testifying to the good news of God’s grace. Acts 20:24

"This man really is the Savior of the world!" John 4:42

Look, he is coming with the clouds, and every eye will see him, even those who pierced him;
and all the peoples of the earth will mourn because of him. So shall it be! Amen.

You are right, there is no gift of healing any more in this world but the power of prayer and trusing in God with all your heart might heal.

Fasting is mentioned often in God's Word, too. Fasting can bring spiritual breakthroughs that could never come in any
other way.
