Dear Intercessors,

You must often wonder whether your prayers are having any direct effect on the lives of the people for whom you are praying. Do you wonder whether it is worth spending all the time that you do in intercession or would you be better off committing yourself to some other good work? May I assure you that the time you give is not just a good work. Intercessors are called into prayer by God. If you are called by God to do something and you obey, you are not involved in a “good work” you are essentially interwoven with Him in His work. Also as I suggested last month if you take at least the first 10 minutes of the time just to be with Him – to let Him know that you are there and ready to listen and receive – then you are yourself moving into His healing for you.

But that apart you ask - does anybody get healed? I am sorry that I receive very little follow up to requests that are made and so I cannot give you a detailed report each month of the improving conditions of the people concerned. But sometimes I get an email or a letter that is greatly encouraging, especially when it is in relation to some situation I was very reluctant to enter into in the first place. This proves that the prayer cover I get from you must fill all the faults in my own attitude. When I was in Texas in February I was asked to do 2 house calls on the Sunday afternoon. I don’t ever like doing house calls or hospital visits and get out of them as often as I can. My hosts were so nice I could not refuse and I was being taken by Chuck who had never done a house call himself.

In the first house there was a big family gathering and we all sat around in the living room and I had not a clue what I was supposed to do or how to start. They were all lovely church going people. Fortunately Chuck with his heart in his mouth was led to start into prayer and this encouraged the family to pray too. After drinks and a snack we moved on to the next house.

Here again a Christian family and friends were gathered waiting for us to come and pray. Bill, was in the middle of the room in his wheelchair. Bill had been an athlete but had developed an acute bone condition due to a vitamin deficiency and was now a paraplegic. He described his condition “as the doctors being able to ladle his spine out with a spoon his bones were so soft”. We all prayed and I spoke to the condition. Everyone was very nice and we left.

This week I received the following email.

"Dear Randy, I just wanted to email you to let you know some fantastic news. Regarding your visit to Flower Mound in March, you may remember going to pray for a man called Bill Robertson in his home. Bill was a paraplegic and bed-ridden, due to a vitamin D deficiency which had robbed him of bone density in his spine, and had caused an injury to his spinal chord. Anyway, after your visit and prayer, Bill has gradually improved day by day, and .... long story short ..... he is in a rehabilitation hospital and has just started walking with a walker !!! His wife is thrilled, and attributes this miracle to be the result of your prayer for him when you visited them. She wanted me to email you to give you this news. Bill still struggles with his breathing, but we believe that healing has happened and we continue to stand in that truth and cast out all doubt. Thank you again for all your prayers for us in Flower Mound, and for teaching us so much about healing. You are a blessing, and we miss you being here with us. I hope all continues to be well with you, and we hope you'll come back again soon to visit us.

Much love and prayers Monica Campbell"

So please let this be an encouragement to us all to stay in there and not give up – to be obedient and always go and do what the Lord is asking without question. Thank you all for your faithful prayers and prayers of faith.

Randy
