My grandmother used to repeat a scripture in the bible when I had bad nose bleeds as a child. It would stop the bleeding. She also knew a scripture that she would repeat that stopped a burn from causing pain. She called it blowing fire. Does anyone know these two scriptures so I can find them?

As Jesus said, its your faith that healed you ...your grandma sounds like she was a great woman of God. theres no way we can know what verses she was using but it wasnt the actual verse that fixed you it was your mutual belief in God and His power. Blowing fire sounds like a reference to thwe Holy Spirit and a way she personally described Gods power working through her.

It is called a HEALING person, nothing to do w/the bible or Christians, etc. Scientifically, people can stop migraines and heart beating. A person can tap into this. The bible can be used or not used depends on what you like to use as a tool. The main point is that you find a successful way of helping yourself.

Sounds like witch craft. She is lucky there are not Christians around. It is called mind over matter. You trick yourself into helping yourself. The reading it relaxed and comforted you lowering heart rate and blood pressure. That stopped bleeding. Same type of thing with the burns.

It's not stupid. It's mountain medicine. My mom's father and uncle could do it. They did it to my mom's arm's arm when she was a little girl. She got burned, they blew fire, and it healed. She has no scar. It has to be taught a special way. It has to go from an older man to a younger woman, then an older woman to a younger man. And you have to believe in it for it to work. You can blow fire on anyone, they just have to believe. I regret I did not learn how to do this.

The scripture for bleeding is Ezekiel 16:
6 And when I passed by thee, and saw thee polluted in thine own blood, I said unto thee when thou wast in thy blood, Live; yea, I said unto thee when thou wast in thy blood, Live.
King James Version
Faith in God brings the healing. It is not about the person nor is it magical but by believing God will do what He says He will do. I have seen it work.

No such scriptures exist! Your granny was "blowing smoke."

i don't know the scriptures but i am willing to bet that she told you that it would work and you believed it so your mind made it happen.

Hearing stupidity like this just reaffirms my atheism.
Thank you
