    If you are full of fear you are not full of faith. Without faith it is impossible to please Him...

    Matthew 8:25 Then His disciples came to Him and awoke Him, saying, "Lord, save us! We are perishing!’’ 26. But He said to them, "Why are you fearful, O you of little faith?’’ Then He arose and rebuked the winds and the sea. And there was a great calm. Jesus has a way of getting right to the point ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 589 views

    Health and long life are God’s precious gifts to us. The life of King Hezekiah is a great reminder that God hears our prayers and brings healing to our bodies. No matter what the illness we or someone close to us is struggling with, know that Jesus is our healer.

    We read in 2 Kings 20:5, “go back to Hezekiah, ruler of the LORD's people, and say to him, "I, the LORD, the God of your ancestor David, have heard your prayer and seen your tears. I will heal you, and in three days you will go to the Temple.” (GNB) King Hezekiah was really sick, and near ...read more
