The mystery of divine healing has perplexed believers for centuries—why are some healed while others suffer? Rev. Bill Preskitt tackles this profound question with wisdom and scriptural insight, guiding listeners through a comprehensive examination of James 5:14-18.

Rev. Bill Preskitt begins by establishing the biblical foundation for healing within the Christian community. When sickness comes, James instructs believers to "call for the elders of the church" who are to "pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord." This process requires faith from both parties—the sick person must trust in prayer's effectiveness enough to request it, while the elders must approach the situation with confident expectation.

The sermon carefully addresses why prayers for healing sometimes appear to go unanswered. With pastoral sensitivity, Rev. Preskitt offers several perspectives: sometimes sickness serves as God's loving discipline; sometimes illness results from poor lifestyle choices requiring behavioral changes rather than just prayer; and sometimes sickness is "unto death"—part of our mortal journey toward eternity. He reassures listeners that God never truly rejects a believer's prayer for healing—the answer is either "yes" or "wait awhile," with complete healing ultimately promised to every child of God, if not in this life, then certainly in eternity.

Drawing from personal experiences and recent testimonies, Rev. Preskitt shares powerful stories of divine healing—including three cases of cancer remission in a single church community. These modern examples of God's intervention remind listeners that Jesus Christ remains "the same yesterday, today, and forever" and that the healing power described in Scripture continues to manifest in believers' lives today.

Whether you're currently facing illness, supporting someone who is, or simply seeking to understand God's perspective on healing, this message offers biblical clarity, practical wisdom, and renewed hope in the God who heals. Listen now and discover how the prayer of faith might transform your approach to sickness and healing.
