Boyfriend

[Dhitlor]

My boyfriend is having prostate concerns and there is a chance he has cancer. He says his appetite has reduced. Please pray for him. Thank you.

We come before the Lord with heavy hearts, lifting up your boyfriend and his health concerns. The thought of cancer is frightening, and we know the weight of this uncertainty is heavy on both of your hearts. We stand in the gap for him, declaring that by the stripes of Jesus, he is healed (Isaiah 53:5). The Lord is our healer, and we trust in His power to restore and renew.

First, we must address the nature of your relationship. Scripture is clear that intimacy outside of marriage is not God’s design. "Marriage is honorable in all, and the bed undefiled; but God will judge the sexually immoral and adulterers" (Hebrews 13:4 WEB). We encourage you both to seek the Lord’s will in your relationship and to consider whether marriage is the godly step forward. If you are not married, we urge you to honor God with your bodies and pursue purity until you are united in holy matrimony. This is not to condemn but to call you both to a higher standard of holiness, where God’s blessings can flow freely without hindrance.

Now, let us pray for your boyfriend’s healing and strength:

Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, the Great Physician. We lift up this man to You, asking for Your divine touch upon his body. Lord, You know every cell, every concern, and every fear. We ask that You would bring clarity through his medical tests and wisdom to his doctors. If there is cancer or any illness, we rebuke it in Jesus’ name and declare that Your healing power is at work. Restore his appetite, strengthen his body, and fill him with Your peace that surpasses all understanding (Philippians 4:7).

Father, we also pray for his spirit. May he draw near to You in this time, finding comfort in Your promises. Remind him that You are his refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble (Psalm 46:1). Surround him with Your love and the support of godly friends and family. Give him courage to face each day with faith, knowing that You are in control.

Lord, we ask that You would also work in the hearts of both of them. If marriage is Your will for them, prepare their hearts to commit to one another in a way that honors You. If they are not yet ready, give them the strength to walk in purity and trust You with their future. May their relationship be rooted in You, reflecting Your love and grace.

We thank You, Father, for hearing our prayer. We trust in Your goodness and Your perfect plan for their lives. In the powerful name of Jesus, we pray. Amen.

We encourage you both to lean on the Lord during this time. Seek Him through prayer, Scripture, and fellowship with other believers. God’s Word reminds us, "Is anyone among you suffering? Let him pray. Is anyone cheerful? Let him sing praises. Is anyone among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the church, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord" (James 5:13-14 WEB). Consider reaching out to your church community for prayer and support as well.

May the Lord bless you both with His peace and presence as you navigate this season. Trust in Him, for He is faithful.

Waiting for answers, especially when cancer is a possibility, can feel overwhelming. We know the questions press in: What will the tests show? How will we get through this? And something as small as a lost appetite can suddenly seem enormous because it makes the whole thing more real. We're grateful you reached out so we can carry this alongside you.

If your boyfriend hasn't already seen a doctor, that's the single most important next step right now. Prostate concerns can have many causes, and only a physician can sort through what's happening and start moving you toward a clearer picture. In the meantime, the uncertainty itself is heavy. It's okay to admit that to the Lord, He can handle our fear, our impatience, and even our sleepless nights.

When someone we love faces a health scare, it's easy to pour everything into supporting him and forget that we're carrying a burden too. You matter in this, not just as a helper but as someone who is watching a person you care about suffer. Let yourself rest, let others come around you, and don't feel you have to be strong every minute. God's strength is made perfect in our weakness, not in our pretending.

Jesus, we lift up this man to You. You know exactly what's happening in his body. We ask for wise doctors, for clarity in every test, and for peace that doesn't depend on results. Settle his stomach and restore his strength. In the meantime, hold his girlfriend close. Calm her anxious thoughts and give her steady hope. Surround them both with people who will show up with meals, with listening ears, and with tangible reminders that they're not alone. We trust You with all of it, the waiting, the unknowns, the outcome. In Jesus' name.

 

[Spurgeon]

It is a great mercy when the body signals its need through a diminished appetite, for it drives us to seek the Healer. There is a fitness required for feasting, and when the flesh recoils from its accustomed bread, we learn that even bitter things become sweet to the hungry soul that finds its true nourishment in Christ. The least thing about Him, those leaves that never wither, is full of healing virtue. And if the leaves are for the healing of the nations, how much more does the fruit of His love restore the individual body and spirit?

Consider that when Jesus healed the palsied man, He first spoke forgiveness, and then health followed. Pardon and healing are placed in happy conjunction, and the Sun of Righteousness rises with healing in His wings when the Lord draws near. Your beloved’s trial is no strange thing to the Great Physician. He touched Peter’s mother-in-law, and the fever left her; immediately she arose and ministered. That same hand is stretched out still. The healing power is most manifest when Christ is teaching, so let him hear the Word and feed his faith. Faith comes by hearing, and healing comes by faith.

Do not despair if the appetite for earthly food wanes; this may be the hour when a deeper hunger awakens. The Holy Spirit can create an appetite where none existed, and when the soul cries out, the Bread of Life is given. My Master has a wondrous way of healing those who appear incurable. He bids the sick to take hold of Him by faith, and in that contact is life. Pray not only for bodily restoration but for that inward cure which changes the lifeblood and makes the nature new. There is an abundance of healing power in Jesus Christ, not only for the body, but for the entire man. His grace infuses a virtue that works health and cure till all is made perfect.

Lay your case before Him who healeth the broken in heart and bindeth up their wounds. Healing from His hand alone is real and lasting; the salves of the world cannot mend what sin and time have frayed. In Christ, the remedy is applied with tender love. Calvary is the place for the healing balm, and as you seek His face for your own, you will find that the very trials which now press you down become the means of lifting you to the Savior’s side. The loss of health may prove the gain of Christ, if in the silence of the sickroom Jesus Himself draws near, preaching the Gospel of the kingdom. He took her by the hand and lifted her up; and so will He do for all who wait upon Him. Amen.

Praying in Jesus Name.

 

[Chrysostom]

How great is the fear that comes with news of a loved one’s illness, when the body weakens and appetite fails. Yet in such trials we are not left without hope, for the Father of mercies and God of all comfort is near. He comforts us in all our affliction precisely so that we may be able to comfort others with the same comfort we receive from Him. Even now, let this truth be your anchor: the sufferings that seem to abound are never without a corresponding abundance of comfort through Christ.

Do not let the cares of this world, like thorns, choke the word of promise. The same Lord who healed the sick and raised the dead sees the one you love, and He knows every hidden ailment. Where human skill reaches its limit, His power is boundless. Remember that the disciples themselves trembled for those they loved, yet Christ strengthened them to bear all things. Call upon Him with confidence, for He said, “Do not fear, only believe.”

If the trial deepens, do not curse it, but receive even this with thanksgiving. For when we suffer wrong or loss without bitterness, the loss becomes gain, and we are made like those who have willingly cast away all for God. Think of Job, who blessed the Lord in his pain; you too, if you bear this well, will find that your comfort abounds far beyond the affliction. The body may grow weak, but the inner self is renewed day by day, and the resurrection in Christ awaits those who trust in Him.

I will pray: Lord Jesus, Lover of mankind, who took our infirmities and bore our diseases, look with mercy upon this man. Restore his appetite, heal his body from every threat, and give him the peace that surpasses understanding. Grant also to this one who cares for him a share in the comfort wherewith You comfort us, so that even in this storm they may know the calm of Your presence. You are the Resurrection and the Life; in You we place our hope. Amen.

The weight of a word like "cancer" can feel overwhelming, can't it. It has a way of consuming every thought, sapping joy, and making the future feel uncertain. I have seen how mercilessly these malignant cells can reduce a strong, vibrant person, and I understand the fear that grips the heart. But what I want you and your boyfriend to grasp right now is that the power of Jesus Christ dwarfs any cell in his body. Jesus is the Creator of all life, and not one rogue cell can stand against His authority. When my mind starts to fixate on the disease, I have to deliberately turn my eyes from the cancer to the Savior. His power is the greater reality.

I recall sitting with someone very dear to me in her last days. She was in great pain, and I was awed and frankly intimidated by cancer’s ability to choke out life. As I prayed and we fixed our attention on Jesus together, everything shifted. Instead of the cancer, I saw Him. She said, right then, “The pain is gone.” And from that moment on, she never had pain again. God touched her in a way that reminded me cancer has no power against Jesus. He may not always heal in exactly the way we request, His ways are higher than ours, but I have also seen Him completely remove what surgeons expected to find. He is able.

Your boyfriend’s reduced appetite is a tangible sign of the strain his body is under, yet it also points us toward a deeper truth. All our earthly labors and cravings, even for food, remind us that the human appetite is never fully satisfied by physical things. God made us with a hunger that only He can fill. You drink from the world’s wells, and you thirst again. I am praying that through this trial, both of you will discover a new appetite, for the living Word of God and for fellowship with Him. Once you taste that, nothing else truly satisfies. Everything the world offers becomes like cotton candy: briefly sweet, but with no lasting substance.

Going through a medical scare is also a time to let the Great Physician examine not just the body, but the heart. Imagine a surgeon who sees a deadly spiritual malady and urges an immediate operation. That is grace speaking. Whether your boyfriend faces a difficult surgery or walks away with a clean report, the most critical health concern each of us carries is the sin that separates us from God. I urge you both to let Jesus cut away anything that hinders that relationship. Trust Him fully, He is the only one who can give eternal life, and nothing, not even cancer, can snatch you from His hand.

Let’s go before the throne together now.

Heavenly Father, You knit this man together and know every cell in his body. We ask for Your healing touch. Remove every malignancy, restore his appetite, and give the doctors wisdom. But more than that, give him the peace that surpasses understanding, and draw him and his girlfriend close to Your heart. In the mighty name of Jesus, amen.
