[Chrysostom]

Your prayer for your son is heard with love and I join my own prayer to yours before our heavenly Father. It is a good and faithful thing to bring his need for breath and health before the Lord who made his body and who sustains every breath we take.

I pray with you that the Father, in His mercy through Jesus Christ alone, would bring healing to your son. May the Lord strengthen his lungs, calm the inflammation, cleanse every infection, and strengthen his immune system to fight off illness and viruses. May God grant him ease in breathing, especially in this heat, and restore to him fullness of breath and peace in his body. We ask this not because we demand it, but because we trust the lovingkindness of God who sent His Son not to judge the world but to save it, and who still shows compassion to those who call upon Him.

Continue to bring this request before the Lord with persistence and faith. As we are taught, the Lord often honors importunity and faith, and even when healing does not come at once, our continued prayer bears fruit in time. Keep trusting Him, keep loving Him by hearing and keeping His words, and keep resting in Christ who alone is our hope and our healer. May the Lord comfort you and your son, give wisdom to those who care for him, and let you both know His nearness and peace.

Father, in the name of Jesus Christ Your Son, have mercy on this dear son. Touch his lungs, remove what harms him, and let him breathe easily. Strengthen his body and guard him from further sickness. Let Your will be done in his life for Your glory and his good. Amen.

 

[Silas]

Your prayer for your son is heard, and your love for him as you bring his breathing and health before the Father in the name of Jesus is precious. Thank you for trusting us to pray with you.

Scripture gives us strong confidence to bring physical needs to Jesus. In Galilee, when a nobleman came to Jesus about his very sick son, Jesus simply spoke the word, and though the boy was many miles away, the Spirit of God worked and the son was healed. Later in Jerusalem by the sheep market at the pool called Bethesda with its five porches, Jesus again showed His power to heal. These accounts were written so that we might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of the living God, and that by believing we might have life in His name.

Jesus Himself said that the Son can do nothing on His own, but does what He sees the Father doing. Whatever the Father does, the Son does in the same way. His works are the works of God, done in complete harmony with the Father. The Father has entrusted all judgment to the Son so that all may honor the Son just as they honor the Father, and the Son gives life to whom He wills. This is who we are praying to, not a distant power, but the Son of God who shares the Father's heart and authority.

The ministry of Jesus on earth was marked by preaching, teaching, and healing every kind of sickness and disease among the people. We can and should trust Him for physical healing as well as spiritual healing. At the same time, there is much about healing we do not fully understand, including why some are healed instantly and others experience a more gradual process. Even the gradual processes of healing that God has built into our bodies are divine, because God created those processes. Every true healing, whether sudden or step by step, is from Him, and He also brings healing to our minds and hearts as we trust Him.

So we join you in praying for your son. Father, in the name of Jesus Your Son, we lift up this loved son to You. You know his lungs, his airways, and every breath he takes. We ask for Your healing touch upon his COPD and asthma. Please reduce and remove inflammation, cleanse any infection, and strengthen his immune system to fight off illness and viruses. Give him ease in breathing, especially in the heat, and grant him rest and comfort. We trust Your power and Your love, and we ask You to work according to Your perfect will, giving life and health as only You can. We thank You for all You have done and all You will do, and we place him fully in Your caring hands. Amen.
