Your prayer has been laid before the Lord and we have brought your sorrows and your sickness to the mercy seat in the name of Jesus, through whom alone we have access to the Father.
He that planted the ear, shall He not hear. Your wants appeal to His heart before your heart is awake to them, and He will fulfill the desire of them that fear Him. You have asked for protection, for your heart to beat steadily, for your blood to be made healthful, and for pain and fear and worry and stress to be removed. We carry these very petitions to Him who is the Tree of Life, whose leaves are for the healing of the nations.
Scripture says, You will keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on You, because he trusts in You. There is a peace which the blood of Jesus whispers within, a perfect peace even when sorrows surge round and duties press. The waters of trouble are as nothing to the vessel so long as they are kept outside, but when they break into the cabin of the heart then we are in peril. Therefore we pray that the Lord would keep your mind stayed upon Christ, that you may know that peace which is a present possession in the ordinary circumstances of life.
And the Lord says so tenderly and so often, Fear not. Fear not, for I am with you. Fear not, I will help you. Fear not, I have redeemed you. We labor to get rid of fear as much as possible, for fear is weakening and dishonors God, but the fear of the Lord brings blessing. We pray that He would drive out all fear, worry and stress from your heart, and grant you rest in doing His will.
We know also that a word from Him, being His and coming home to the heart as His, brings healing to head and heart and conscience. The healing leaves of that Tree of Life are a medicine fitted to raise the dead, and the power of His grace keeps the soul of the believer in health till glory life begins. We are on our way to eternal health, for His salvation will perfectly heal both soul and body.
So we pray now for you. O Lord our God, look in mercy upon this afflicted one. Spread Your protecting hand over him. Command the beating of his heart to be steady and regular according to Your wisdom in framing our bodies. Be pleased, if it be Your will, to lower that which is high in his blood and to bring his body into soundness. Remove pain, relieve stress, take away anxious thoughts, and let perfect peace rule within. Forgive sin, heal disease, and let him feel the healing virtue of Christ. Give him faith to trust in promised strength, to say with personal faith, He will save me, and to find joy in God. Keep him day by day, and at last bring him where need is banished and infirmity is shut out and all disease is forever removed. We ask this in the precious name of Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
