Christian testimonies about healing, and how to pray for him

It is not at all surprising that a large number of sick people come to the church for help, because they heard numerous Christian testimonies about healing. However, some begin to abandon a professional doctor, and trust their health to some healers, magicians and sorcerers who conduct rituals over patients, where church prayers and icons are often used. This can hardly be approved.

Correct spiritual life

After analyzing all the Christian testimonies of healing, one can understand how important spiritual life is for any person, because the Church exists not only to cure, for example, the spleen and liver. A person in his life should strive for God - his main goal, but often people understand such things very difficult. So: the diseases on his way - this is a way of getting rid of something superfluous and wrong, in the slavery of which a person has fallen.

God's Decision

Of course, everything depends on the Lord. If He thinks that a person is coming to Him, then it will be soon, and if he sees that he still needs to work on this earth, He will do everything. A man who can not reconcile himself to the fact that he will soon die without despair and without falling into despair begins to pray sincerely, but the Lord sees and hears each of us, and there is nothing impossible for Him. Saints are our mediators before God, they also play an important role and are always ready to intercede and pray for the Lord's recovery. A man without God is lonely, and it's always hard to act alone. This is what all the Christian testimonies say.

During the period of illness it is very important to rethink life and relationships with other people, and God will certainly help. And if nothing is asked of Him, then there will be no help. As Jesus Christ said to His disciples in the Gospel of Matthew: "Ask, and it will be given to you ..." According to statistics, believers are more likely to receive recovery than unbelievers.

Prayer

Every Orthodox person knows that prayer is a very powerful tool, and there are different Christian testimonies to it. But sometimes they try to turn the prayer into a method of treatment, and this is a big mistake.

When people come to the grave to the holy old Matronushka and wait for the impact of some energies from which the tumors or something can supposedly dissolve, in that case they become like those ignorant whom Christ Himself healed, but who then did not return, To bring Him His gratitude and willingness to serve the Savior. As Christ once asked one of the ten healed: "You have come, but where are the other nine?"

Christian evidence based on real events

The lack of spiritual life leads us to fear before death. In a serious illness, a person's heart literally begins to cry and strive for God. Sometimes we can not even understand the depths of this aspiration, because we came to this world alone, and we leave alone, as nothing has been brought to this world, so nothing will be carried away.

Many want to know at least some true Christian testimonies about healing in order to receive hope. There are several of them. For example, all of us, a very respected theology professor Alexei Osipov, talked about his miraculous healing. The thing is that in childhood he had a very serious problem with the spine, so at some point he just stopped growing. But his spiritual father Abbot Nikon Vorobyev (author of very useful spiritual books) noticed this ailment. It was summer, just before the school year. A pious priest forced the teenager Alyosha to stand up to the crossbar and measure his height. From that moment on he began to grow, and every week he came to see the father to measure his growth. A miracle happened when Alexei came to school on September 1. The guys were very surprised, because he grew up in a month, about 15 centimeters. So, according to the prayers of his spiritual father, Alexei received a miraculous healing.

The second case is described by Vladimir Gurbolikov, editor-in-chief of the Orthodox magazine "Foma". He fell ill with cancer, underwent surgery and chemotherapy courses. The doctor explained to him that the disease is progressing, and an operation will be required after which it can be left disabled, but in this way the disease is likely to be stopped. Five days later he had to go to the doctor again to prepare for another hospitalization.

On the same day a familiar priest phoned him and offered to be counseled (the sacrament of anointing for the sick and dying). Vladimir agreed, because he saw no way out for himself, except how to reconcile and find fellowship with God. After this sacrament, he resumed repeated tests, which showed that Vladimir is healthy. This caused a real shock to the doctor, the unbeliever's man.

Conclusion

As Vladimir himself admitted, he did not expect a miracle, but sought in his heart for peace and strength for the upcoming trials. He learned for himself the lesson that one should always feel the hand of the Lord and the connection with him. And you feel it only in constant self-destruction - the feeling that you are a speck of dust and an unworthy person, if compared with how God loves, is patient and merciful to us. But we often, cruel and ungrateful, do not want to correct our lives with good deeds and love, indulging our pride and vanity, choosing everything that is temporary and vain.
