Miraculous Healing Published in Medical Journal

The doctors saw the medical evidence of miraculous healing through prayer… and the case was so remarkable that it was published in a peer-reviewed medical journal!

Global Medical Research Institute (GMRI) have recently published a peer-reviewed case report of blindness healed through prayer. We have very strong medical evidence of a miracle here. The case concerns a woman who was blind for 12 years with documented juvenile macular degeneration, and who was instantaneously healed after her husband prayed for her.

You can read our full medical report of the healing absolutely free here: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.explore.2020.02.011 and see more about our case reports here.
