Absorbing God’s Word
“Is any one of you sick? He should call the elders of the church to pray over him and anoint him with oil in the name of the Lord.” James 5:14
Applying God’s Word
This is one of the worst flu seasons since 2009, evidently. We know many people who are sick with various problems. We can’t always get someone to an elder of a church when they’re sick. We must allow God to speak prayers through us, during those times and have faith that He hears us.
Louise and I have asked God to place a hedge of protection around all those we know close and afar who are sick right now. We have a friend in his eighties who is struggling with heart failure. We have a niece’s 2o year-old brother-in-law who is fighting for his life because of the flu. Six or seven of his Christian friends went to the hospital to pray over him.
I ask that you might pray for Loren and Jonathon, also.
We are praying for all of you and your families.
Accounting of God’s Word
Who is God asking us to anoint with oil and pray over?
