Faiths healing power is sometimes difficult to accept when we consider it from our human reasoning. We have to truly understand the cross and the sacrifice God made for us to grasp the power that is available from Christ, to those who believe in his sacrificial death.
Matthew 9:28 When He entered the house, the blind men came to Him; and Jesus said to them, "Do you believe that I am able to do this?" They said to him, "Yes, Lord." Then he touched their eyes, saying, "According to your faith be it done to you." And their eyes were opened.
Mark 9:23 And Jesus said to him, "If you can!" All things are possible to him who believes.
From Positive Thinking For Every Day Of The Year, by Norman Vincent Peale is the following prayer: "Our Heavenly Father, we thank you the you are related to our health and well-being. Help us to empty out all diseased attitudes, that the great healthy mindedness comes from you, our creator, may result in re-creation of our bodies, our minds, and our souls. Amen
Ephesians 1:16-20 I do not cease to give thanks to you, remembering you in my prayers that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of Glory, may give you a spirit of wisdom and of revelation in the knowledge of him, having the eyes of your heart enlightened, that you may know what is the hope to which he has called you, what are the riches of his glorious inheritance in the saints, and what is the immeasurable greatness of his power in us who believe, according to the working of his great might which he accomplished in Christ when he raised him from the dead and made him sit at the right hand in the heavenly places..
3:7-21 Of this gospel, I was made a minister according to the gift of God's grace, which was given me by the working of his power. To me, though I am the very least of all the saints, this grace was given to preach to the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ, and to make all men see what is the plan of the mystery hidden for all ages in God who created all things; that through the church, the manifold wisdom of God might now be made known to the principalities and powers in the heavenly places. This was according to the eternal purpose which he has realized in Christ Jesus our Lord, in whom we have boldness and confidence of access through our faith in him. So I ask you not to loose heart over what I am suffering for you, which is your glory. For this reason I bow my knees before the Father, from whom every family in heaven and on earth is named, that according to the riches of his glory he may grant you to be strengthened with might through his Spirit in the inner man, and that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; that you, being rooted and grounded in love, may have power to comprehend with all the saints what is the breadth and length and height and depth, and to know the love of Christ which surpasses knowledge, that you may be filled with all the fullness of God. Now to him who by the power at work within us is able to do far more abundantly than all that we ask or think, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus to all generations, for ever and ever. Amen
From My Utmost For His Highest by Oswald Chambers, updated edition edited by James Reimann. If you want to know the power of God (that is, the resurrection life of Jesus) in your human flesh, you must dwell on the tragedy of God. Break away from your personal concern over your own spiritual condition, and with a completely open spirit consider the tragedy of God. Instantly the power of God will be in you. "Look to Me..." (Isaiah 45:22).p

Dr Charles Stanley had a quote on a card I received. It says "God will move heaven and earth to reveal his will for you, if you really want to know it and do it." What an awesome gift we have available to us.
