Does God Set Bones?

We were getting ready to go to Bible study the other night when Brent kicked the door jam to our closet in our bedroom.  He heard & felt things crunch and move that really shouldn't.  God quickly reminded him of the headache from a few nights prior that had been taken care of quickly.  Brent prayed with each step he limped down the hall.  When he got to the kitchen I started to open my mouth to ask him what happened and he quickly said "Yes, I prayed about it and it's fine!"  He said that when he delcared "it's fine!" all pain left and he had no problems with it since.  A couple of days later he showed me what looked like a very bruised & sore toe... I asked if it hurt at all and he said that he was free from pain.

So "Does God Set Bones?"  I believe so... When we ask him to do it and believe that he will do it and then declare it to be so.  God's word is true and we can stand on his promises for sure!

Did You Pray About It?

This is becoming almost a comical line in our home between Brent and myself!  One of us will begin to talk about something that is bugging us and the other one will ask "did you pray about it?"  Sometimes the answer is yes, however many times the question is met with an eye roll and some excuse or just plain conviction to finally pray about it.

The other day Brent came home from work with a splitting headache.  He was saying that he hardly ever gets headaches like that.  He took a couple of tylonel and layed down with a pillow over his head.  I asked him what he was taking tylonel for and he told me he had a headache.... I asked "did you pray about it?"  We went on to talk about our daily events and a couple minutes into our conversation (saying it was 5 minutes since Brent had taken Tylonel would be pushing it) Brent said "by the way my headache is gone".

God even hears us when we pray silently.  If we take it to him believing that he will answer it is amazing how quickly he responds to our calling!
