    I don't know you, but if you're truly one of God's children, I highly encourage you to please do the following:

    James 5 - 14 Is any sick among you? let him call for the elders of the church; and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord: 15And the prayer of faith shall save the sick, and the Lord shall raise him up; and if he have committed sins, they shall be forgiven him. 16Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.

    Some points to consider on it:

    1. According to the Bible, only men can be elders ( 1 Timothy 2:11-15 - 1 Corinthians 14:34-36 - 1 Timothy 3:1-2 - Titus 1:6)

    2. The anointing oil needs to be done; it's not "just medicinal" like some teach - (Read Mark 6:7 & 6:12-13 those were clearly supernatural healings, and yet they still used the anointing oil - when they anointed in the Old Testament, they simply poured oil on someone's head ( Leviticus 8:12 - 2 Kings 9:6 - 1 Samuel 10:1) - you don't need any man to "bless the oil", the Bible did not say to do that - the anointing simply needs to be done in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ.

    3. It says "the prayer of faith shall save the sick", so I encourage everyone to be praying that God will give the gift of faith to both parties during that time - earlier in James, it shows us faith is essential when praying, otherwise "...let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord." ( James 1:6-7)

    -

    And a short gospel message - Jesus said "...repent ye, and believe the gospel."

    Repent in that context is godly sorrow for having broken God's commandments ( 2 Cor 7:8-11)

    Romans 13:9 "For this, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness, Thou shalt not covet; and if there be any other commandment, it is briefly comprehended in this saying, namely, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself."

    listen to God's medicine by Kenneth E Hagin. Confess you're healed by Jesus Stripes. Read Bible to get faith. Stay in faith. Act on your faith.

    LaTonya, I will pray for you. My husband and I have a two story home with our bedroom upstairs. Wit my back issues and such, we know this home cannot work for us to age in. So we are praying the Lord will lead us to the best lot and community to build our one story, simple retirement home built to meet our needs. So I hear you on needing a new place to live that is more fitting. we've been in this house 26 years. Our sons were in elementary school when we moved in and now all three are in their thirties. So, please pray for us as i pray for you.

    Dear Lord Jesus,

    Thank you for keeping Latonya strong these past few months despite her heart problems. Please preserve her until you bring the best answer for her concerning her heart. I pray that You will allow her to move to a first floor apartment, duplex, or home soon that will suit her needs as she, like me, have need of this. We both are trusting you for all of our needs each day and for life eternal when You call us home.

    We ask all of this in Your name, Jesus, because you are Almighty, and All Wise, and All in All for us. Amen.
