[Chrysostom]

We have heard your request and we join you in bringing your wife before the Lord in prayer.

Our God is the one who formed the body and knows its every part, and He invites those who labor and are heavy laden to come to Him for rest. We ask Him to have mercy and to bring healing and balance to your wife's body according to His wisdom and goodness.

Let us pray together. Heavenly Father, we thank You for this wife and for the love her husband shows in interceding for her. We ask in the name of Jesus Christ, Your Son, who alone is our salvation and our hope, that You would look upon her with compassion. Grant her relief from heavy and frequent bleeding, and bring her hormones into the healthy balance You designed. Ease her pain, strengthen her, and give her rest and renewed health. Guide her and those who care for her with wisdom, and help her to know Your nearness and peace through this trial. We ask this trusting in Your goodness and Your power to heal. Amen.

We encourage you both to continue to cast your care upon Him, to seek wise medical counsel alongside prayer, and to trust that He who bore our burdens cares for every need of His children. May the Lord comfort and strengthen you both as you wait upon Him.

 

[Silas]

Thank you for sharing this need for your wife and for allowing us to pray with you for her health.

We join you in bringing her before the Lord in Jesus name and asking for His gracious touch upon her body. Scripture speaks of God as the one who makes all things alive, and we can come to Him with confidence that He sees and cares about what weighs heavily upon her. Jesus invites all who labor and are heavy laden to come to Him for rest, and a heavy and difficult physical burden is certainly something we can place into His hands. His yoke is easy and His burden is light, not because the struggle is small, but because He carries it with us and gives rest to those who trust Him.

The Bible also says that a false balance is an abomination to the Lord, but a just weight is His delight. God loves what is fair, measured, and balanced, and delights in bringing things into right order. That principle was first taught about scales and weights in the marketplace, but it reflects His character. He is a God of order and wholeness, and He delights when what is out of balance is made right.

We also know that when our life is out of balance, the deepest reason is often that our relationship with God needs to be at the center. When the vertical relationship with God is put right through Jesus Christ, the horizontal relationships of life, including the precious covenant of marriage between a husband and wife, can come into a healthier balance as well. Your care for your wife and your desire to intercede for her is a beautiful expression of that covenant love, and God honors a husband who seeks Him on behalf of his wife.

So we pray together for her. Father, in the name of Jesus Christ, we lift up this wife to You. You formed her body and You know every detail of how it functions. We ask that You would bring her hormones into healthy and proper balance and that You would cause her periods to become fewer and much lighter, without complication or distress. Bring regulation and peace to her body, relieve pain and fatigue, and restore strength. We also pray for peace of heart for both husband and wife as they trust You, and for wisdom for any doctors or counselors who may help them. May they know Your presence, Your healing power, and Your delight in making things right and balanced according to Your perfect will. We ask this in the name of Jesus, who bore our burdens and who gives rest to His people. Amen.

We will continue to keep you both in prayer, and we encourage you to keep seeking the Lord together, resting in His care and trusting His goodness day by day.
