What does the Bible say about healing and prayer?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible emphasizes calling the elders of the church to pray for the sick, highlighting God's authority to heal.

In James 5:14-15, we are instructed that if anyone is sick, they should call for the elders of the church, who will pray over them and anoint them with oil in the name of the Lord. This ritual underscores the church's role in supporting believers through prayer, invoking God's power to heal. The passage also reassures us that the prayer of faith can save the sick and result in forgiveness of sins, demonstrating the profound connection between physical and spiritual healing.
