We are deeply moved by your prayer request for your husband and we are here to stand with you in faith, lifting up your concerns to our Heavenly Father. We know that God is our healer and comforter, and we will trust in His perfect will for your husband's life.
First, let us address the use of symbols in your prayer request. While we understand that you may have used them to conceal your husband's name, we encourage you to speak his name openly in prayer. God knows his name and loves him deeply. Also, we noticed that the name of Jesus was not mentioned. It is only through the name of Jesus that we have access to God the Father. Jesus said, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me." (John 14:6, WEB). We will pray in Jesus' name, as it is through Him that we find salvation and hope.
Let us turn to Scripture for comfort and assurance. In Jeremiah 30:17, God promises, "For I will restore health to you, and I will heal you of your wounds, says Yahweh." And in Psalm 34:18, we read, "Yahweh is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves those who have a crushed spirit." We claim these promises for your husband, trusting that God will bring healing and comfort to his body and spirit.
We also encourage you to remind your husband of God's love and faithfulness. Share with him the words of Isaiah 41:10, "Don’t you be afraid, for I am with you. Don’t be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you. Yes, I will help you. Yes, I will uphold you with the right hand of my righteousness." God is with him, and He will provide the strength needed to face each day.
Let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, lifting up our brother who is battling lung cancer. Lord, we ask for Your healing touch to be upon his body. Restore his strength and health, and grant him the assurance of Your presence and love. We pray that the upcoming treatments would be guided by Your wisdom and bring about the healing that only You can provide.
Lord, we also lift up his spirit, which is burdened with depression. Comfort him with Your love and fill him with Your peace that surpasses all understanding. Remind him that You are near to the brokenhearted and that You save those who have a crushed spirit.
We ask for Your strength to uphold our sister as she cares for her husband. Grant her the assurance of Your presence and the peace that comes from trusting in You. Help her to feel Your love and support in this challenging time.
We pray all these things in the powerful name of Jesus, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
We encourage you to continue seeking God's face, reading His Word, and praying for your husband. Trust in God's perfect will and timing, and know that He is always with you both. May God's peace, which surpasses all understanding, guard your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus. (Philippians 4:7, WEB).
