Agents of Healing, was released last week. Rather than tell you all about it, let me just share a story from chapter 2 and then state my conviction.

The Fever’s Gone!

One day as I left our apartment to get something from a nearby shop, Jewel, one of the guards, greeted me in the deep voice of one whose cold had descended into his chest. I wondered if I should offer to pray for him. Not feeling confident, I kept walking. On the way to the shop, I set three conditions before the Lord. Lord, if he is still present when I get back, if he is alone, and if he is willing to come up to our apartment, then I will pray for him.

I returned from the shop a few minutes later. Jewel was still on duty, and no one was talking to him. I asked if he would like me to pray for him. He agreed. I asked if he would come up to my apartment. He agreed. He called another guard to watch the gate while he came upstairs with me.

After seating him on our couch, I explained to Jewel, a follower of a different religion, that I wanted to pray for him in Jesus’ name. Again, he agreed. I cupped my hands together and lifted them to chest height as members of his religion do when they pray. I rebuked the sickness in Jesus’ name and prayed for Jewel’s healing. Then the prayer was over, and he got up and left. I thought, Well, Lord, I am pretty sure I did what you wanted me to do. The results are in your hands. Not five minutes later, the intercom rang. I picked it up and Jewel exclaimed, “Sir, sir, the fever is gone!”

My Conviction

I firmly believe that we can all learn to effectively pray for healing in Jesus’ name. The key word here is learn. Praying for healing, just like almost everything else requires learning. Agents of Healing is where I have put down my learning in written form.
