Joyce Meyer says her 2-y-o great-grandson healed his mom with prayer
Popular televangelist Joyce Meyer says her 2-year-old great-grandson prayed for healing and his prayers were answered.
“Stop trying to get hold of God with your head, it's a heart thing,” the preacher shared in a message published on July 29. “As soon as you get into reasoning, you're going to get into trouble believing. You need to come like a little child and believe Him. Just believe.”
“Truly, I say to you, unless you turn and become like children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven,” Matthew 18:3 in the scriptures says.

Throughout her ministry of 33-years Meyer has been candid about the challenges in her life and has sought to help others learn from her life experiences. She illustrated her sermon by sharing a story of her toddler great-grandson.
“My great-grandson, who's two, his mothers back was hurting really bad …” Meyer explained. “It was hurting so bad she was laying on the bed crying and he went up to her, Jeremiah, 2 years old, put his hand on her and said 'Jesus, mommy, ouchy, amen.'”
After that, Meyers said, “her back quit hurting.”
“Come to Him like a little child,” she told her followers. “He’s a good shepherd, it doesn't have to be fancy, it doesn't have to be eloquent, it doesn't have to be phonetically correct."
