New to Christianity?
2 Timothy 2:15 (NLT)
Work hard so you can present yourself to God and receive his approval.
Be a good worker, one who does not need to be ashamed and who correctly explains the word of truth.
Congratulations on making THE BEST decision of your life!
Welcome to God's eternal family!!
Start with the link above because that is essential information.
Also know that you can literally pray for ANYTHING that is not sinful (and praying for things that you need is not sinful). Also, prayer can do ANYTHING that God can do! You can even pray for things like self-control, patience, and supernatural love for yourself and for others. Praying daily for a supernatural increase of the 9 fruits of the Spirit (see Galatians 5:22-23) is a great strategy to become more and more the way we were made to be - like the image of God (see 1 Peter 1:13-17)
Because Christianity is based on God's free gifts through grace, it is largely backwords from the way the rest of the world operates, so if you are not moving forward with the Lord in your spiritual walk, you are inevitably moving backwards into your old thoughts and habits and back into the ways of the world.
There is no middle ground.
As Christians there are 2 main concepts that keep us on the correct path toward Jesus:
1) The LOVE of God. This is easy to see and we can find many scriptures talking about this. For just a few examples, see 1 John 4:15-17 and 1 Corinthians 13:4-8.
2) The FEAR of God. This is what probably the majority of Christians (at least in the US) are lacking, but it is VITAL to our success as Christians. Jesus delighted in the Fear of the Lord! That means we should too!! But many people do not understand what this means. I wish I had a firm grasp of this from the moment I became a Christian, because my walk with the Lord would have grown so much faster and I would have avoided SO MANY problems. For a deep dive into this topic, I cannot recommend highly enough the book, "The Awe of God" by John Bevere. It is simple to understand and is a 6 week study with only 4 pages per day. Anyone can make it through it. Do yourself a giant favor and CHECK IT OUT!!! Better yet, study and talk about it with others.
Below are some links to great content that every new believer should know. I encourage you to take your time and think about these things. Pray that God would help you understand and follow Him to the best of your ability.
Power Healing
JESUS IS WHERE THE POWER IS! He has the POWER to instantly heal and to transform lives. There's a very good reason why the Bible is the #1 selling book of ALL TIME.
The Bible says that, "The Kingdom of God is not in words but in POWER." (1 Corinthians 4:20)
So to cut to the chase, life-changing miracles are one of the main proofs that JESUS is real, and below are 2 men who have MANY on video.

You can learn some very good tips from these great men of God, especially on how to effectively pray for divine healing. After following some good advise from Tom Loud that is based on what the Bible says, the founder of this site saw 5 people's chronic pain vanish instantly after prayer in just 1 day. God is good and He honors the promises in His word!
God loves us so much that Jesus has not only paid for you to be saved and go to heaven, but He has paid for you to have ALL good things, including both mental and physical healing (see Romans 8:32 for example). May you find the healing that you need and learn how to live a supernatural life through faith in Jesus.
