Yes I have, and in more than one way. My mother was diagnosed with throat cancer. I had to take her to hospital over 200 miles away to get her in to a specialist at a hospital that could do that drastic of a surgery. On the 2nd trip, the Dr. put her to sleep to do more thorough check without the gag reflex, and at that time she had only minor non-cancerous growths that required only short day-surgery, and was able to eat the same day. That was so much different than what we had been told. We had several prayer chains going, and I am sure that God healed the cancer.
Sometimes God heals through the miracles of medicine. I had a premature baby 19 years ago, her lungs were not developed, and she had staph infection in her blood. She was on 100% oxygen at 70 breaths per minute (Room air is 21% oxygen) and we were told she may not make it through the night, and she would possibly have brain damage from lack of oxygen. Many people prayed, and the next morning she improved drastically. In 2 weeks we were able to take her home, no oxygen, no machines to hook up to, just to take care as any other infant. Today she is 19, and serving in the army in South Korea.
At the age of 72, my mother fell and unknowingly caused a blood vessel in her brain to start bleeding. A little over a week later, she couldn't walk or talk and was confused. The brain surgeon told us the surgery would aggravate existing health problems, which included emphysemia, congestive heart failure, chronic kidney failure, and other heart problems. It was a difficult decision, but without surgery it appeared she would be a vegatable. We (family and Dr.s)were afraid she would not be able to breathe on her own anymore after so long in surgery, but she did well through surgery, and came off the respirator in the recovery room. She fully recovered from the brain surgery.
I personally have fibromyalgia. Before I was diagnosed I was getting sicker and sicker. I could barely get out of bed for over 4 months. The Dr. kept running test, all of them showing some irregularities but none to explain the degree of my weakness,fatigue, and pain. I thought I was going to die before they found out what was wrong.(Autoimmune disorders are often hard to diagnose because they have so many varied symptoms they are often not connected) My Dr. told me it was just me. Many friends had recommended a Dr. they thought could help me, but he didn't take my insurance. Believe it or not, he got a partner in his office which took my insurance, I went to him about 3 times, and he moved to a different town, and the Dr. I wanted took his patients. Many people may call it coincidence, But I believe it nothing short of the hand of God. By the way, I am much better and most days function ok.
I don't know what kind of illness you have, but pray and have faith, and look for the miracles everyday. It may not be a ZAP! YOUR HEALED (although it could be) but it could be God guiding some Dr. to a treatment that turns your life around.

Yes my daughter aged 12, she was critically ill when she was born, the doctors said there was nothing they could do, I prayed and God healed her, then the doctors wanted to run test to find out how she survived. I said when God heals you there are no results just instant recovery.

Nope. About 5 years ago my mom said god spoke to her and said she'd be healed and nothing ever happened. Unless he's just a sloooow worker.

Yes, it happens both in a religeous sense, and a spiritual sense. These are two different things by the way. But God works through many channels. Not just one.

my daughter had to have her big toe nail removed in the doctor's office due to a gym injury to the toe. He numbed it well, but afterward when we got home she was screaming with pain. She is always tough so I knew she really hurt. I felt helpless. Then I put my hands on her and prayed for God to take the pain away. Immediately she stopped screaming and said"IT STOPPED". We were both thrilled and grateful.

no, you don't know that anyone has been healed by god. why would you narrow your mind and be ignorant to so many other possibilities.

chris,
Yes. For years I couldn't breathe out of the left side of my nose. The guy who did the majority of witnessing to me before I was saved was the vessle of God's work. He laid hands on my nose quite abruptly after I said it. And them I could breathe from both sides.Isn't that something!
Thanks for reminding me.
