knows that The Power of Prayer has been recognized
and practiced by billions of people for thousands
of years. Through prayer, people have been seeking
the guidance of a higher power for many reasons:
World Peace, Health, Happiness, Wealth, Power,
Success, Forgiveness, the Continuation of their
Soul, etc.
People pray
for themselves, for their loved ones, and also,
for those they do not know directly. This latter
form of prayer is called “Intercessory Prayer” and
a growing number of world-wide studies continues
to support the fact that Intercessory Prayer may
provide strength, a feeling of well being,
gratitude and appreciation in the hearts of those being prayed for,
even
if they are unaware of their praying partners
at HelpMePray.
A recent
article in a leading magazine cited several
compelling studies of the power of praying for
others:
 |
In 1988 Dr.
Randolph Byrd, a cardiologist at San Francisco
General Hospital, randomly assigned almost 400
patients in the coronary-care unit to either a group
that received daily prayers or a group that did
not. At discharge, those who had been prayed for
were much less likely to need antibiotics or
develop complications. |

In 1998 Dr.
Elisabeth Targ, a psychiatrist at the University
of California San Francisco School of Medicine,
recruited experienced distant healers who used
prayer and other techniques on patients with
advanced AIDS for at least one hour a day. In
the first part of the study, which was published
in the Western Journal of Medicine, 40
percent of those not prayed for died, while none
of the patients who received the distant healing
died. Targ doubled the number of patients and
started over- again, the patients who received
prayer fared much better in terms of
AIDS-related illnesses. |

In addition,
the September 2001 issue of the Journal of
Reproductive Health published a study from
Columbia University in New York that examined 199
women at an in vitro fertilization clinic in
Korea. Organizations in the United States, Canada
and Australia prayed for a random group
representing half of the women. The study showed
that women who were prayed for were twice as
successful in conceiving. Perhaps just as
interesting, this outcome also suggests that the
power of prayer transcends not only geographical
borders, but cultural and religious lines as well.
