The language couldn't be more simple and direct and there's no smokescreen "context" that apologists can hide behind. It's an ironclad promise from God to His children that if His children pray to Him in faith, the person they are praying for will be cured and made well.

Down through 2000 years how many millions of Christians have done EXACTLY as the Lord commanded and prayed in faith only to see their beloved children die in misery and agony??????

Can there be any more convincing proof that the Bible is a fraud---that God DOES NOT keep His promises? Remember, if one promise in the Bible fails, then the whole Bible fails. It cannot be the Divine Word of God. It can be a good book for some helpful advice here and there like any other religious text, but it CANNOT be God's inspired Word, as fundamentalists love to claim.
I love God. My mom passed away in '91...doesn't mean I gave up praying, and believing in Jesus. My son passed away in '06...doesn't mean I gave up praying and believing in Jesus. I love you bro. How long do you think you'll be able to sustain your belief that the Bible is not the inspired word of God? Perhaps you should seek out the testimonies of people who love God, and stop relying on the false reports of people who hate God. The other day I prayed to win the lottery...the phone rang seconds later. I answered, and the person said, "Yes, I need an estimate for tree trimming."
God answered my prayer...He said, "No, go to work!" I love God. Peas & hominy bro.

This is the confidence we have in approaching God: that if we ask anything according to His will, he hears us.
15 And if we know that he hears us—whatever we ask—we know that we have what we asked of him.

its only a fraud if you take it literally or present it literally. Actually it is still not the bible, its the person.

Non literal bible makes perfect sense.
