    What If God’s Silence Is Still Love: Prayer for a Healing Move but God is Still. (Shortwave Radio Edition)

    Send a Prayer or Prayer Request We pray for people facing Ebola in the Democratic Republic of Congo, then we get honest about the tension of praying hard while nothing seems to change. We walk through five biblical reasons God can feel silent and how we keep faith steady without blaming God or giving up.  • interceding for the sick and for frontline medical workers during the Ebola outbreak  • delayed answers in Daniel 10 and why “heard” is not the same as “arrived”  • persistence in Luke 18 and praying without trying to twist God’s arm  • Paul’s thorn and learning to accept a different answer through sufficient grace  • trusting God’s will when the answer is no and remembering God is all-knowing and all-loving  • checking motives and spiritual conditions without assuming every delay means sin  • praying with discipline, intensity, and a clean heart while accepting that God may not explain  If you want your scriptures to be heard or your prayers to be heard on the air, feel free to leave them at 747-477-2937. Again, that is 747-4 Prayer.  Support the show

    The Greater Principle: The Not So Secret to Biblical Healing.

    Send a Prayer or Prayer Request We share the Greater Than Principle for healing prayer, where we pray for the symptom but also ask what’s feeding it and what burden sits beneath it. We walk through Bible examples and a practical prayer pattern that aims at whole-person restoration without blaming suffering people. • defining the Greater Than Principle as praying beyond the symptom to the source • using Matthew 12:29 to address controlling obstacles first • putting needs under the kingdom through Matthew 6:33 • learning from the paralytic that the most obvious need may not be the greatest need • holding a careful line on sin and sickness using John 5 and John 9 • praying for emotional health alongside physical healing with Proverbs 17:22 and Philippians 4:6-7 • asking questions like Jesus did with Bartimaeus before praying • seeing whole-person care in Elijah’s rest and recovery in 1 Kings 19 • applying Galatians 6:2 to bear burdens without reducing people to symptoms • using a five-step prayer flow for symptom, factors, circumstances, wisdom, and kingdom purpose if you need healing immediately, feel free to call the prayer line, 747-the number four, in the word prayer. That is 747-4 Prayer. And also note that we don't mind if you just pray for us on the line. https://www.buzzsprout.com/2629204/subscribe Support the show

    When Healing Waits and What We Can Possibly Do About It

    Send a Prayer or Prayer Request Why does healing feel immediate for some people and painfully slow for others? We name the question out loud and refuse the easy answers, then walk straight through the Scriptures that complicate our favorite healing narratives. I’m Mark John, and I’m laying out multiple reasons people may not see healing right away, not to discourage you, but to help you pray with clarity and stay anchored when your body or your heart is worn out. We talk about Paul’s thorn in the flesh and God’s surprising response: “My grace is sufficient for thee.” We sit with the uncomfortable possibility that God sometimes shows His power by sustaining us in weakness instead of removing the pain on demand. Then we turn to Lazarus and the tension of delayed healing when Jesus intentionally waits, reminding us that delay is not denial, even when it feels personal. From there we zoom out to the bigger theology of suffering and bodily healing: we live in a fallen, mortal creation that groans, and complete restoration is ultimately tied to resurrection. We also look at faithful believers like Trophimus, Timothy, and Epaphroditus, asking why some people receive dramatic miracles while others receive practical instruction, endurance, or healing later. We address when sin can be connected to sickness or consequences, how confession and prayer belong together, and how faith matters without turning someone’s illness into a blame game. If you need prayer, we share how to reach us, and we close by praying for healing in God’s time and God’s way while giving Him all the credit.

    God Heals: What Changes When Healing Belongs To God?

    Send a Prayer or Prayer Request We pray with you to the God who heals, anchoring our hope in Scripture while staying honest about pain, timing, and God’s will. We share encouragement for trials, read key passages on healing, and ask God to move in real lives without treating prayer like a formula. • opening prayers of gratitude, guidance, and peace for grieving families • purpose and work rooted in Genesis and a Labor Day reflection • invitation to receive Jesus Christ and live with a renewed mind • Proverbs 4 reminder that God’s word brings life and health • Romans 8:37 and James 1 encouragement for enduring trials • Exodus 15:26 foundation that healing comes from the Lord • Jesus’ healing ministry and the kingdom sign in Matthew 4 • healing, suffering, and the cross held together in Isaiah 53 and 1 Peter 2 • James 5 prayer, elders, anointing oil, and believers praying for each other • gifts of healing in 1 Corinthians 12 submitted to God’s will • why we ask God boldly but do not command God • why healing is not always immediate, with Paul and Timothy as examples Leave your request or leave a prayer for us.

    Does God Still Heal? Shortwave Radio Edition 15770khz 9955khz

    Send a Prayer or Prayer Request A lot of people can say “God heals” when life is calm. The real question shows up when you are tired, hurting, or watching someone you love suffer: does God still heal today, and if he does, why does healing look so different from person to person? We start with Scripture and a prayer for a weary world, lifting up places torn by war and communities hit by disaster, asking God for comfort, provision, wisdom for leaders, and strength for the church to shine with hope. From there we dig into the Bible’s own logic for healing, from “I am the Lord who heals you” to the healing ministry of Jesus, and then the crucial follow-up: what about after the resurrection? We walk through James 5:14–16, the healings recorded in Acts, and the gifts of healing in 1 Corinthians 12, keeping the tone simple, grounded, and honest. Then we face the hardest part: the Bible does not promise that every faithful Christian is always physically healed right now. We talk about Paul’s thorn in the flesh, why that matters, and why we have to be careful not to twist it into an excuse for sin or a way to blame God for our choices. We also pray for healing that goes deeper than symptoms, including mental and emotional healing, because what happens in the mind often shapes what happens in the body. If you need prayer, clarity, or courage to keep asking, press play. Subscribe, share this with someone who needs hope, and leave a review telling us what “healing” means to you right now.

    Distractions In Prayer And The Simple Antidote

    Send a Prayer or Prayer Request We talk through the most common distractions that derail prayer, from busyness and screens to worry, fatigue, and disappointment with God. We also name a simple antidote that cuts through every obstacle: pray anyways, with discipline, attention, and alertness.  • busyness and the addiction to doing, prayer brought into daily life  • phones and social media, managing stimulation without losing connection  • entertainment overload, why prayer cannot live in the leftovers  • worry and mental noise, taking thoughts captive and returning to prayer  • fatigue and different kinds of prayer, including wordless groaning  • worldly cares and desire for other things, how fruitfulness gets choked  • unconfessed sin, disappointment with God, and feeling unworthy  • not knowing what to say, trusting God hears beyond imperfect words  • routine without attention, avoiding empty repetition  • procrastination and lack of discipline, training for godliness  • praying only when we feel spiritual, choosing consistency over mood  • spiritual opposition and alertness, watch and pray  Support the show
