Why did Sis Urshan die? She probably had a million or more people praying for her.

I wish I could change the title of this thread.


Why do most of you think that you need a lot of people praying for your healing? The more... the better..., or so they say.

Maybe among a lot of people there's a better chance that God will hear one of them?

Maybe there's someone in the group that can pray the prayer of faith? You know God has His favorites, right?

God, I've pulled all the levers and pushed all the buttons, why haven't you healed me?

Larry sometimes God gives our final healing and that is death.

It happens to the best of us.

In the Old Testament that is described by the phrase that he "was gathered unto his people." That term is even used for Aaron who died in the wilderness and for Moses who died overlooking the promised land so it does not mean they were taken to the family graveyard. It could possibly mean they returned to the dust from which they came.

This is seriously bad taste to use someone else for your example that might be held dear to so many people on this board

Her name have been on hundreds of posts here on this forum. I mean no disrespect. I felt there probably would have been more prayers for her than anyone I could think of.

The issue is : How many prayers does it take to get God's attention?

Every prayer has his attention ... the answer may not always be YES.
