Warts eliminated through prayer

Margaret Lombard Heimer

A number of warts gradually appeared on one of my hands until it became embarrassing. Then they began spreading to the other hand. At that time there were many advertisements of medical remedies for warts, but assurance that God was indeed capable of healing me came when I recalled these words of Christ Jesus, "With God all things are possible" (Mark 10:27). And I was helped by this statement in Science and Health, "What God cannot do, man need not attempt" (p. 231).

It was inspiring to realize that the Bible often refers to God's hands as symbolizing His power. This reference to hands in the book of Isaiah brought me special confidence: "Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness. ... For I the Lord thy God will hold thy right hand, saying unto thee, Fear not; I will help thee" (41:10, 13). When I noticed my hands or thought about them, I affirmed the presence of God's power. The warts began to diminish, and completely disappeared in a short time.
