The Power of Prayer!

While on my way home from work this evening, I called my Mom. We talked for a few minutes before she told me to call my Mamaw because she wasn't doing very well.
When I asked her what was wrong, she informed me that my grandmother was up all night with a severe nose bleed and was sick all day to day.
I didn't see how this could be. I had just talked to her last night and she sounded fine.
She happened to call me after I got home this evening and sounded horrible. She said she thought it was the flu, or something like it. She told me about her nose bleeding, and I knew this wasn't good at all for her. She has had multiple heart surgeries and is on blood thinners.
She left out one part of the story that my mom told me this afternoon.
As my mom finished telling me about Mamaw's nose bleed, she said that there was a scripture in the Bible that stopped nose bleeds. She told me that my Uncle Ray came over and read the scripture to her. Mamaw said the bleeding stopped like a faucet that had been turned off.
Wow! Glory to God!
Although I'm not a Bible scholar, I've been in church all if my life and have never heard of this.
This evening I Googled it to see if I could find anything on it. Sure enough, there were multiple posts and comments about Ezekiel 16:6 stopping bleeding. (Bleeding in general, not nose bleeds specifically.)
As written in the King James Version, Ezekiel 16:6 reads "And when I passed by thee, and saw thee polluted in thine own blood, I said unto thee when thou wast in thy blood, Live; yea, I said unto thee when thou wast in thy blood, Live."
Talk about an uplifting affirmation of faith and proof that miracles do still happen for those who live in God!
