We join you in lifting up your health and financial struggles before the Lord, knowing that nothing is too difficult for Him. Your faith in calling upon Jesus for healing and provision is a testament to your trust in His power, and we stand with you in agreement, believing for miracles in every area of your life.
The Scriptures remind us that our God is Jehovah-Rapha, the Lord who heals. In **Exodus 15:26**, He declares, *"If you will diligently listen to Yahweh your God’s voice, and will do that which is right in his eyes, and will pay attention to his commandments, and keep all his statutes, I will put none of the diseases on you, which I have put on the Egyptians; for I am Yahweh who heals you."* While this does not guarantee we will never face illness, it assures us that God is our healer, and we can boldly approach His throne for restoration. The apostle Peter also walked in this truth when he declared in **Acts 10:38**, *"How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and with power, who went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil, for God was with him."* Jesus bore our infirmities on the cross, and by His stripes, we *are* healed (**Isaiah 53:5**). We claim this promise over your body—over your COPD, the chronic cough, congestion, and even the high A1C levels that have been exacerbated by these illnesses. The same Spirit that raised Christ from the dead dwells in you (**Romans 8:11**), and we command these afflictions to bow to the name of Jesus. Be encouraged by **Jeremiah 30:17**, which proclaims, *"For I will restore health to you, and I will heal you of your wounds, says Yahweh."*
We also hear your cry for financial breakthrough, and we declare that our God is Jehovah-Jireh, the Lord who provides. The enemy has sought to steal, kill, and destroy (**John 10:10**), but Jesus came to give life abundantly, and we rebuked the devil’s schemes over your home and finances. **Joel 2:25-26** promises, *"I will restore to you the years that the swarming locust has eaten... and you will praise the name of Yahweh your God, who has dealt wondrously with you; and my people will never again be disappointed."* We stand on this Word, believing for a sevenfold restoration of all that has been taken—whether through unexpected expenses, job struggles, or the financial strain of medical needs. The Lord owns the cattle on a thousand hills (**Psalm 50:10**), and He is faithful to supply all your needs according to His riches in glory (**Philippians 4:19**). We pray for divine wisdom in stewardship, for open doors of opportunity, and for supernatural provision that can only be credited to His hand.
Yet as we pray, we must also exhort you to examine your heart and lifestyle in light of Scripture. Chronic illnesses like COPD are often exacerbated by habits such as smoking or exposure to harmful environments. If this applies to you, we urge you to seek the Lord’s strength to break free from anything that may be harming the temple of the Holy Spirit (**1 Corinthians 6:19-20**). Similarly, high A1C levels are closely tied to diet and self-care. While we trust God for healing, we are also called to be good stewards of the bodies He has given us (**1 Corinthians 10:31**). Ask the Lord for discipline and wisdom in these areas, for He is faithful to guide you.
Finally, we rejoice that you have invoked the name of Jesus in your prayer, for there is no other name under heaven by which we must be saved (**Acts 4:12**). It is only through Christ that we have access to the Father (**John 14:6**), and it is in His mighty name that we pray with authority. Your closing "Amen" is a declaration of agreement with God’s will, and we echo it wholeheartedly.
Now, let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, lifting up our brother/sister who is battling COPD, persistent coughs, congestion, and the physical toll these illnesses have taken, including high A1C levels. Lord, You are the Great Physician, and we ask for Your healing touch to flow through their body. Rebuild their lungs, clear their airways, and restore their strength. By the power of the Holy Spirit, we command every symptom to align with Your Word, which declares that *by Your stripes, we are healed*. Let there be a supernatural reversal of damage, and let their body respond to Your healing power in ways that bring glory to Your name.
We also bring their financial needs before You, Lord. You see the stress and the burden they carry for their home, and we ask You to intervene mightily. Open doors that no man can shut, provide resources beyond their expectations, and restore what the enemy has stolen—sevenfold, as Your Word promises. Let their testimony be one of Your faithfulness, that others may see and know that You are a God who provides, protects, and restores.
Grant them wisdom, Lord, to walk in obedience in every area—whether in caring for their temple, managing their resources, or seeking You first in all things. Strengthen their faith to trust You even when the battle rages, knowing that You are fighting for them (**Exodus 14:14**).
We rebuke every spirit of infirmity, lack, and fear in Jesus’ name. Let hope arise, let faith be their shield, and let Your peace, which surpasses all understanding, guard their heart and mind (**Philippians 4:7**). May they walk in the assurance that You are working all things together for their good (**Romans 8:28**), and that no weapon formed against them will prosper (**Isaiah 54:17**).
Thank You, Father, for hearing our prayer. Thank You for the miracles You are releasing even now. We declare that our brother/sister will live and not die, to proclaim the works of the Lord (**Psalm 118:17**). In Jesus’ mighty and matchless name, we pray. Amen.
