A companion Bible study from Vince Baker Ministries
How does Paul talk about gifts of healings and miracles?
He names both among the manifestations distributed by the Holy Spirit for the common good.
Read the passage in context
- 1 Corinthians 12:9–11 · KJV
Wigglesworth discusses divine healing and miracles alongside testimony from his own ministry and early experiences of praying for people.
From the passage to daily life
Compare the gift list with James 5:14–16. One passage describes manifestations within the body, and the other gives a local community a practical way to pray for the sick.
Discussion and reflection
- How does Paul talk about gifts of healings and miracles?
He names both among the manifestations distributed by the Holy Spirit for the common good.
- How can a group pray for healing faithfully?
Ask what the person wants prayer for, pray with compassion and consent, and continue offering care afterward.
Put the study into practice
Read 1 Corinthians 12:7–11 and James 5:13–18 together before praying as a group.
