In order to gain insights into the origin of colossal magneto-resistance (CMR) in manganese oxides, we performed a ^{139}La NMR study in the double-layered compound La_{1.2}Sr_{1.8}Mn_2O_7. We find that above the Curie temperature T_C=126 K, applying a magnetic field induces a long-range ferromagnetic order that persists up to T=330 K. The critical field at which the induced magnetic moment is saturated coincides with the field at which the CMR effect reaches to a maximum. Our results therefore indicate that the CMR observed above T_C in this compound is due to the field-induced ferromagnetism that produces a metallic state via the double exchange interaction.
