We have heard your cry and we join with you in prayer as you suffer with this painful inflammation and with fear for your eyesight and your safety, and we bring your needs before our Heavenly Father together in Jesus' name.
We understand how frightening it is when your body is in pain and you are worried about what may happen this week. God sees your suffering and He hears your begging for healing and protection. He is our healer and our refuge. The Scripture says, who forgives all your sins, who heals all your diseases, Psalm 103:3, and But I will restore you to health, and I will heal you of your wounds, says Yahweh, Jeremiah 30:17. We also take comfort that He is our protector, He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of Yahweh, He is my refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust, Psalm 91:1-2. When fear rises up, we remember His promise, Don’t you be afraid, for I am with you. Don’t be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you. Yes, I will help you. Yes, I will uphold you with the right hand of my righteousness, Isaiah 41:10, and For God didn’t give us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and self-control, 2 Timothy 1:7.
We noticed your prayer was addressed to God but did not mention Jesus Christ, and we want to lovingly share that it is only through Jesus that we have access to the Father and receive salvation and answered prayer. Jesus said to him, I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me, John 14:6. There is salvation in none other, for neither is there any other name under heaven, that is given among men, by which we must be saved, Acts 4:12. It is by believing in Jesus, that He died for our sins and rose again, that we are forgiven and can come boldly to God with our requests. If you have not yet put your trust in Him, we encourage you to call upon His name today, confess your need for Him, and receive His grace and peace.
We also encourage you to continue to seek wise medical care while you trust the Lord for healing, for God often works through the hands of physicians, and to cast your anxiety on Him in prayer. In nothing be anxious, but in everything, by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus, Philippians 4:6-7.
We pray with you now.
Father in heaven, we lift up this dear one to You in the name of Jesus Christ Your Son. You see the inflammation and pain in this body and the fear about eyesight and safety. We ask for Your healing touch, that You would completely and permanently heal this inflammation according to Your will, restore health, and protect the eyes and the whole body from harm. We ask that You keep this one safe through this week and guard every step. Lord, replace fear with Your peace and presence, let Your perfect love cast out fear, strengthen and uphold this dear one with Your righteous right hand. Draw this heart closer to Jesus, give assurance of salvation through Him, and let Your peace which surpasses all understanding guard the heart and mind in Christ Jesus. We ask all this in the mighty and merciful name of Jesus Christ, our only hope and healer, amen.
