“The BBC published a great story this week about a lady who was miraculously healed by God from being confined to a wheelchair after a serious accident at work. June Clarke, 56, from Plymouth in Devon went to a Christian Conference in 2006 and received prayer for healing. Hours after this she was able to fold up her wheelchair and stop taking her painkillers.

June then contacted the government to tell them that she had been healed so she could stop receiving her disability payments and benefits. The Department for Work and Pensions were a bit confused because their systems didn’t have a ‘button for miracles’! They weren’t able to process the fact that June had been miraculously healed! After 6 months, she was seen by a government doctor who ‘officially’ declared her fit and healthy – they took their time but they eventually had to come into agreement with what Jesus had done in June’s life.

God is a God of Miracles. Jesus heals today. We are increasingly seeing the realities of heaven, where there is no sickness, disease or infirmity, invading the world around us as we continue to pray in faith and believe for the miraculous.

June testified that the key to her miracle was ‘the power of prayer and patience’. Jesus said something very similar in Luke 18:1 where he told the story of the persistent widow: “Then Jesus told his disciples a parable to show them that they should always pray and not give up” – Let’s be a people with that persistent faith. Let’s be a people who always pray and never give up! As we do this, we will continue to see the miraculous power of God at work all around us!”
