A Prayer for Healing Physical and Emotional Wounds | Your Daily Prayer

Then he spit on the ground. Made mud with the saliva and spread the mud over the blind man's eyes. John 9:6

Updated Oct 23, 2024

Does the story of Jesus healing the man born blind fascinate you as much as it does me? Or how about the paralyzed man whose friends lowered him down through the roof? In the former, Jesus spit in the mud, placed it on the man’s eyes, and told him to rinse off in a water source nearby. In the other story I mentioned, Jesus forgave the man’s sins and healed him so he could walk again. These stories represent only a fraction of the many places in the Bible that show God’s power to heal our physical and emotional wounds.
