Acts chapter 28 - nathanael

His father was sick in bed, suffering from fever and dysentery. Paul went in to see him and, after prayer, placed his hands on him and healed him.

I'm always interested to see how healings happen. Here Paul visits, then prays, then places his hands on the man, an then heals him.

I'm wondering if the first prayer was asking God if he should pray for healing, or if he was praying for God to heal him. In either case it seems that after prayer he felt led to put his hands on the man and heal him.

Thank you Father for your love and for demonstrating you love through the healing of our souls from sin and the healing of our bodies from sickness!
