What does the Bible teach Christians to do when someone is sick—and how can students practically pray for people around them?

In this teaching from the Jesus Movement series, the focus is on moving beyond theory and learning how to pray for the sick in the name of Jesus. The message begins with Acts 1:8 and the power of the Holy Spirit, then explores Jesus’ teaching about laying hands on the sick and trusting God to work.

The teaching also addresses something many people experience when praying for others: pressure. Instead of focusing on performance, the message encourages believers to focus on Jesus, His victory and His love for the person in front of them.

A story from a student in Greece illustrates how this approach can lead to an opportunity to pray for someone at school and share the Gospel.
