The Church Qualified for Service
Christ has empowered His church to do the same work that He did
during His ministry. Today He is the same compassionate physician
that He was while on this earth. We should let the afflicted understand
that in Him there is healing balm for every disease, restoring power
for every infirmity. His disciples in this time are to pray for the sick
as verily as His disciples of old prayed. And recoveries will follow,
for “the prayer of faith shall save the sick.”
James 5:15
. We need the
Holy Spirit’s power, the calm assurance of faith that can claim God’s
promises.—
