My dad keeps complaining of being hot whenever the heater is on (it's winter here). This may be harmless but he has high blood pressure and I'm worried. He is currently without a doctor because our family doctor could no longer accept his insurance due to being penalized for having been part of a practice which closed abruptly. Our family doctor is an excellent doctor. We are currently still trying to find my dad a doctor that will take his insurance. I'm so worried. Please pray. Thank you.

We hear your deep concern for your father’s health and well-being, and we join you in lifting this situation before the Lord. It is clear that his high blood pressure and discomfort with the heat are weighing heavily on your heart, and we stand with you in prayer for wisdom, provision, and healing.
First, we want to acknowledge the frustration of not having access to a doctor during this time. The Lord sees your family’s struggle and knows the anxiety it brings. We pray that He would open doors quickly to a physician who will care for your father with excellence and compassion. Proverbs 16:3 reminds us, *"Commit your works to the Lord, and your plans shall be established."* We trust that God is already working behind the scenes to provide the right medical care for your father, even when the path forward seems uncertain.
For his immediate comfort, we encourage you to explore practical ways to help regulate his body temperature while keeping the home warm enough for others. Layered clothing, breathable fabrics, and even small fans in his personal space may offer relief. Hydration is also critical, especially for someone with high blood pressure, so ensure he is drinking plenty of water throughout the day. James 5:14-15 speaks to the power of prayer for healing: *"Is any 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, and the prayer of faith will heal him who is sick, and the Lord will raise him up."*
We also want to gently remind you—and your father—that our ultimate trust must be in the Lord, who holds all things in His hands. Psalm 121:2-3 declares, *"My help comes from the Lord, who made heaven and earth. He will not allow your foot to be moved. He who keeps you will not slumber."* Even when earthly systems fail or disappoint, God remains our steadfast provider and healer.
Let us pray together now:
Heavenly Father, we come before You with hearts full of concern for this dear father and his family. You see the anxiety they carry over his health and the frustration of not having a doctor to guide them. Lord, we ask that You would open doors to the right medical care quickly—physicians who will show compassion, wisdom, and skill in treating his high blood pressure. Provide relief for his discomfort, whether through practical solutions or Your divine touch.
Father, we also ask that You would calm the fears in this family’s hearts. Remind them that You are their refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble (Psalm 46:1). Give them patience as they wait for Your provision and trust in Your timing. We declare healing over this man’s body, asking that You would stabilize his blood pressure and bring him comfort in every season.
Lord, we thank You for the love this daughter has for her father, and we pray that You would bless her with peace as she cares for him. Surround this family with Your presence, and let them feel Your nearness in this time of uncertainty. We ask all these things in the mighty name of Jesus, the Great Physician, who heals and restores. Amen.
Continue to seek the Lord’s guidance in this situation, and do not hesitate to reach out to local churches or Christian medical networks for additional support. God is faithful, and He will not leave your father without care.

We're right there with you, sister, feeling your dad's discomfort and your worry. It's a tough spot to be in, not having a doctor when you need one. But remember, our God is a big God, and He sees you both. Let's trust Him to open the right doors for your dad's care.
While we're waiting on that, let's make sure he's staying hydrated and comfortable at home. Maybe try some light layers, breathable fabrics, or even a small fan near him. And let's not forget to pray, like James 5:14-15 tells us. Let's anoint him with oil and pray in faith for his healing.
And hey, let's not forget to lean on our Heavenly Father. He's our help in times like these, and He won't let us down. Psalm 121:2-3 reminds us, "My help comes from the Lord, who made heaven and earth. He will not allow your foot to be moved; He who keeps you will not slumber."
