I am new to this forum so firstly I would like to say hi. One of the things I enjoy most about being a Christian is being able to share answered prayer with others. It blows my mind everytime I hear about the amazing work our precious Lord does, in fellow Christians lives, as a response to prayer.
I would love to share a story with you.
Christmas 08 I rang my youngest sister who didnt seem her usual self on the phone. I asked her what was up and she told me a few days previous the hospital has told her she couldnt have children. She had a problem with her womb which meant she would NEVER have a viable pregnancy and if she was ever to even get pregnant again it would be a miracle. I told her that Jesus performs miracles and asked if I could pray for her. As a non Christian she wasnt convinced but I told her I would anyway.
I remember being so upset as I sat and prayed with tears in my eyes asking the Lord to bless her with a baby and I promised him I would share my faith with my sister and her husband if he allowed it to happen.
3 months later she rang me saying that that she had fallen pregnant and was really excited, she rang me before anyone else and even said her husband had asked if I would thank the Lord for them both.
She was still worried as she had already had a number of miscarriages but I had 100% trust in the Lord, I asked people at the Church to pray all the way through the pregnancy and recently she has given birth to a beautiful baby boy.
Since then my sister and her husband have allowed me to share my faith on more than one occassion and I am sure they will one day fully commit to the Lord.
Nothing is to big for Jesus. 2000 years ago he performed miracles and he is still very much alive today.
I get so encouraged when Jesus answers prayers, I hope this thread encourages you too and I ask if you can share your "miracles" with me.
Yep lots of answered prayer. But one that stands out. One of my friends had me go with her to pray for a co-worker of hers. She was moving to Texas & wanted to pray for this woman before she moved. She said she needed someone to stand with her who would have raw faith & not doubt or question. I said okay. We went to the hospital & she was talking to this lady. I was just looking. I hadn't expected what I was seeing. The lady was on machiens, and had tubes & she looked like she was in some type of vegitative state. My friend was whispering in her ear & I was talking to myself in my head, trying to combat any negative thought. I started praying in tongues just for me to & she kept praying & whispering to this woman. Finally, she prayed out loud & she told that lady God was going to completely heal her & she wouldn't even have a memory of what happend. I looked up and quickly said amen. After we left she asked me if I beleived God was gonna heal that woman. I said, do you? She said yes, I said yes. Fast forward she moved & about a month or so later I was in the store & saw this lady in the store. I went up to her and started talking to her & said how good it was to see her well. Of course she didn't recognize me. I told her I was a friend of the lady who prayed for her. She said, I'm sorry I don't remember any of that. I smiled & said look at God. I called my friend to tell her what happened. God is Amazing & Faithful!

Oh, dear. Too numerous to even begin, after being a believer for 47 years! Most recently, a horrible thing was going to happen in my family -- something not preventable that would have personally devastated five persons and the ripple-effects would have been enormous. (Sorry -- I can't go into detail, because this issue is still active.) So I asked people to pray, and I prayed. It never happened; rather, some positive things happened instead, totally out of anyone's control. I thank G-d for this! He is still working on the situation.
God is indeed good and I mean all the time. Blessed be the name of the Lord.
