You can pray for healing Here's ten reasons why you want to 1)  Unlike other treatments, prayer is free. 2)  Unlike other treatments, prayer has no bad side effects.     None. 3)  Unlike other treatments, prayer takes very little time.  4)  Because of those first three, you have no risk in trying      prayer.

5)  Many times you'll be able to see people recover after just one prayer. 6)  In cases where nothing seems to happen after your first prayer, you can easily learn      what to do next. 7)  Like learning how to ride a bicycle, your initial efforts to learn how to pray for healing      might feel awkward. But once you master the skill, you never forget it. You can use      the skill any time, any where, for any one. 8)  The world is full of people who need your prayers. 9)  Put the name of someone you know in the blank: ___________ can be healed. 10) Put the name of a country you care about in the blank: ___________ can be healed. And here's a bonus reason: You can learn how to pray for healing in as little as 15 minutes. Every minute you invest after that increases your potential for effectiveness.

Dear friends:

Dale was a spectator at a football game even though his back was causing him tremendous pain. He hurt so much he couldn’t lift a cup up to his lips – he had to have his daughter lift it for him. The next day things weren’t any better, and he came to a healing service. I encouraged everyone to ask for prayer. Although Dale was in excruciating pain, he didn’t respond. In spite of that, God healed him. No one prayed for him directly. But he walked out of the service pain-free. "I felt like dancing," he told me later.

Over the past two decades I have seen so many healings that it has led me to an inescapable conclusion: People can be healed of anything. There are no conditions that are too difficult for God. I’ve seen people healed of cocaine and heroin addiction. I’ve seen people who were healed of back pain, cancer and deformities. You and your friends can be healed, too.

It doesn’t matter how much experience a person has praying for healing, they can always improve. And it doesn’t matter how little experience a person has, they can see amazing results.

In a short time you can become much more effective in praying for healing -- a few simple techniques will dramatically increase the effectiveness of your prayers. There are even things you can do in cases that seem to be stuck.

Many years ago, I had a headache that never let up. I even had it when I slept. Some days the pain was almost more than I could stand. If I’d been asked what I’d give to be free of the pain just for one day, I quickly would have paid $100. If you’d said I could be free of headaches for the rest of my life, I’d gladly have paid thousands of dollars. But my healing was free. I learned what was causing my headaches, and ever since I have been released from all that pain.

What was that worth? I’m not sure I could name a price high enough.

I mention that because the book How To Pray For Healing (and what to do if nothing happens) teaches people how to pray for healing in simple steps that both beginners and experts will find helpful. It's available for less than $20, and it comes with a 100% satisfaction guarantee, so there's no risk in ordering it just to try it out, even if you're not sure if it will be worth your time. But in spite of all that -- and in spite of the obvious need for healing in people all around them -- many people reading this letter will take no action on this risk-free offer. That causes me to wonder: What value do you put on seeing friends recover?

As you might guess, I can't promise that any particular person you pray for will get well. But if you begin praying for people on a regular basis, you will see many people healed, even people the doctors had given up on.

I prayed for someone who was released from the pain of arthritis. What do you suppose that was worth to her? I know a young man who was healed from drug addiction after just one prayer. What do you suppose that was worth to him? What do you suppose it was worth to his grandparents?

For a limited time, you can get the excellent book How To Pray For Healing (and what to do if nothing happens) for only $15.95. You can order with confidence because the book is 100% guaranteed: if you're not satisfied, you can return the book for a full refund. Order by February 15, 2008, and get free shipping (a savings of $3).

I went with a group to the home of a woman who had cancer. The group had never prayed for a cancer patient. But after one visit, their friend was healed. The cancer never returned. What do you think that was that worth to the woman and her husband? What was it worth to the group members who saw God’s power firsthand?

I watched a group of people pray for a man with leg braces who could barely walk. The next year I saw him walk into a room with the braces in his hand, put them on a table and say, "I used to need these." What was that worth?

Would any of these be worth a few hours of your time to learn how to pray for healing?

Of course! Any one of them would.

I can’t predict the variety of ailments that people will be released from as a result of your prayers. But I know the power of God is enormous. When you join your prayers to God’s intentions to heal the universe, amazing things will happen.

Many people quit praying or don't believe in prayer because they want prayer to work like a light switch: You flip the switch and the light comes on. No exceptions. People quickly learn that prayer isn't like that. Sometimes it "works" and sometimes it doesn't. Discouraged by cases where prayer seems to be initially ineffective, some people quit trying. As a result, they don't experience the cases where amazing things happen.

Life is complex and many things are in play at the same time. As a result, prayer is more like baseball than it's like a light switch. When Babe Ruth came to the plate, you never knew in advance what might happen. He often struck out, swinging and missing three times in a row. But if you watched long enough, you could be sure you'd see a home run.

Nobody told the Babe, "You have too many at bats where you swing and miss. You need to quit."

No! It's expected in baseball that great players won't succeed in every attempt. But you also know that if they keep at it, amazing things will happen.

When you pray, you won't be able to predict in advance which attempts you'll "swing and miss" and which times you'll hit home runs. But if you persist past the times where "nothing has worked (yet!)," you'll see amazing things happen. You'll see people healed of cancer, back pain and life-long conditions. By your prayers.

If you’re still not convinced you absolutely, positively have to start praying for people for healing, you might call your local hospital and ask what the minimum rate is for someone who is hospitalized for just one night. The hospitals I know of want $800 or more before any treatment starts.

If, over the rest of your lifetime, only one person is kept out of the hospital for only one night because of what God does through your prayers, it would be worth more than 40 times your investment in learning how to pray for healing. And when you pray regularly, you’ll see results far more spectacular (and far more often!) than just one person being helped just for one day.

Every day you delay is a day that can't be recovered. Ever. You'll never know what home runs you gave up. The people around you will never know what they missed, either. If I had delayed, there are people who would still have arthritis, back pain, cancer or drug addiction. They'd never know why their lives continued to be so hard. But it would have been my fault.

Today is the day to respond. Now is the time to start helping people, even if you're not as good at praying now as you'd like to be later.

The book How To Pray For Healing (and what to do if nothing happens) is easy-to-read and it will help you improve, regardless of your level of experience. You can order it at no risk. The book comes with a 100% full money back guarantee, so you can try it out even if you still have reservations, questions or doubts.

There is a word of warning. I learned how to pray for healing by listening to stories about Jesus. That may not reflect your spiritual path. But if you're willing to listen with an open mind, you'll still enjoy the book and learn from it. And if not, there's that 100% guarantee.

Taking action is risk free. Not taking action will guarantee that people who could be healed will continue to suffer. This is knowledge you can't afford to neglect.

P.S. People tend to value things that they have to stretch to acquire. Don’t let the low cost of this informative book keep you from learning how to pray for healing!
