We need to come right into the presence of Christ believing he will
heal our physical and spiritual infirmities.", Selected Messages

to apply to your case the healing promises that have been recorded in

"We cannot expect the Lord to work a miracle for us, while we neglect
the simple remedies he has provided for our use which, aptly and
opportunely applied will bring about a miraculous result. Therefor

"Many have expected that God would keep them from sickness merely
because they have asked him to do so. But God did not regard their
prayers, because their faith was not made perfect by works. God will
not work a miracle to keep those from sickness who have no care for
themselves, but are continually violating the laws of health, and make
noefforts to prevent disease. When we do all we can on our part to
have health, then may we expect that the blessed results will follow,
and we can ask God in faith to bless our efforts for the preservation
of health. He will then answear our prayer, if His name can be
glorified theregy." Selected Messages Book 2 page 464
"Christ sought the people where they were, and placed before them the
great truths in regard to His kingdom. As He went from place to place
He blessed and comforted the suffering and healed the sick. This is
our work. God would have us relieve the necessities of the destitute.
The reason that the Lord does not manifest His power more decidedly is
because there is so little spirituality among those who claim to
believe the truth. " Medical Ministry page 319
In every city where we have a church, there is need of a place where
treatments can be given... A place should be provided where treatments
may be given for common ailments.", Testimonies Volume 6, page 113
"All are bound by the most sacred obligations to God to heed the sound
philosophy and genuine experience which he is now giving them in
reference to health reform. He designs that the great subject of
health reform shall be agitated, and the public mind deeply stirred to
investigate; for it is impossible for men and women, with all their
sinful, health-destroying, brain-enervating habits, to discern sacred
truth, through which they are to be sanctified, refined, elevated, and
made fit for the society of heavenly angels in the kingdom of glory.
", Testimonies Volume 3 page 162
"Those who will gratify their appetite, and then suffer because of
their intemperance, and take drugs to relieve them, may be assured
that God will not interpose to save health and life which are so
recklessly periled. The cause has produced the effect. Many, as
their last resort, follow the directions in the word of God, and
request the prayers of the elders of the church for their restoration
to health. God does not see fit to answer prayers offered in behalf
of such, for He knows that if they should be restored to health, they
would again sacrifice it upon the altar of unhealthy appetite.",
Medical Ministry page 13,14
"All that the apostles did, every church
member today is to do... At this time, when the end of all things is

"His disciples in this time are to pray for the sick as verily as the
disciples of old prayed, and recoveries will follow; for the prayer of
faith shall save the sick. We have the Holy spirits power, the calm
assurance of faith that can claim God's promises. The Lord's promise,
they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover (Mark 16:18)
is just as trustworthy now as in the days of the Apostles. It
presents the privledge of God's children, and our faith should lay
hold of all that it embraces. Christ's servants are the channel of
his working, and through them He desires to exercise his healing
power. It is our work to present the sick and suffering to God in the
arms of our faith. We should teach them to believe in the Great
Healer.", Ministry of Healing second page of chapter "prayer for the
sick."
"Into whatsoever city ye enter... heal the sick that are therein, and
say unto them, the kingdom of God is come nigh unto you. ", Medical
Ministry p253

Hereby know ye the spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that
Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God: and every spirit that
confesseth not that Jesus is come in the flesh is not of God 1 John
4:1-3 "Whosoever shall confess that Jesus is the son of God, God
dwelleth in Him, and he in God." 1 John 4:15
