Back a couple years ago, I was at work, and I heard two co-workers talking about a nurse that worked on the floor. They stated that this nurse's daughter had a tumor and when they did her surgery, she'd be deaf. At first it worried me, not knowing if this girl was saved or not, and by being deaf, it could make it harder in regards to hearing the Word preached if she was lost. All of a sudden, I had this "feeling" come over me that she wasn't going to be deaf after the surgery. When one of them left, she was a sinner, the one who remained, I asked her what they were talking about(she is a christian). After she explained to me the circumstances, I told her to not think that I am trying to be a prophet, but I have this feeling she's not going to go deaf. Later that night, I went and spoke with the nurse, and she told me what was wrong. Her daughter was already deaf in one ear, and the tumor was on the side where he hearing was. When they removed the tumor, she would lose her hearing as well. They were going to cut around her ear(through the skull), and remove it that way. I then told her what I earlier told my co-worker. So, the next morning, I went home, and sent emails, and even requested prayer on here in the prayer forum. I took the nurse's cell phone #, because they did the surgery in Los Angeles; that was the only place they did this type of surgery.
About 3-4 weeks later, I called her to find out how everything went. Here's where faith comes to fruition. When they got to the hospital in L.A., the dr's took another look at her MRI on disc, and they stated they must have looked at the MRI backwards. They said the tumor was on the side where the hearing was gone, and not on the side of her good ear. She told me that she still had the MRI disc, and that I could look for myself, but she stated emphatically, that the tumor was on the side of her hearing originally. I did not need to see it to believe it, because I know our God is a miracle worker.
W/O faith, we are useless weapons in God's army. W/O faith, we can not utter up one prayer that will be answered. W/O prayer, none of the sick can be healed. W/O faith, we are hopeless, and helpless people.
And FTR, this nurse's daughter today, has 80% hearing.....not bad for someone who was supposed to be deaf after her surgery, eh? Our God is an AWESOME God!!! :godisgood::jesus::godisgood::jesus:

, then the OP's question would mean: [FONT=Verdana, sans-serif]“Why would such a powerfully enabled and well informed Believer need belief today for much of anything?” You cannot be a believer without believing, without faith.
