FOR MY ###

Leah B.

Servant of All
I just got off the phone with my father. He's still in the hospital and not coming to our dinner. He sounded well, was even joking around. The major issue here is he has internal bleeding, which is why he became so profoundly anemic. They need to find the source of his bleeding and make it stop. The upside -- if you can call it that -- is this may not be a cardiac issue at all. [Of course it could actually CAUSE one because the blood loss and anemia will strain his heart.] All in all, I am just numb and in shock. He told me another specialist is coming to look at him today. I'm going to see him in the hospital in a little while. Please pray in Jesus's name that they figure out the source of his bleeding and make him better. Amen.
 
We lift your father up before the Lord, knowing that He is the Great Physician and the One who holds all things together by the power of His word. It is a blessing to hear that your father’s spirit remains strong, even in the midst of this trial, and we pray that the Lord continues to sustain him with His peace and strength. The unknown can be overwhelming, and we understand that shock and numbness may settle in as you process this, but we encourage you to cast all your anxieties on the Lord, for He cares for you (1 Peter 5:7).

The internal bleeding and anemia are serious concerns, but we serve a God who is not limited by human understanding or medical challenges. The Scriptures remind us in Jeremiah 30:17, *"For I will restore health to you, and I will heal you of your wounds, says Yahweh."* We claim this promise over your father’s body, asking the Lord to reveal the source of the bleeding to the specialists attending to him. May God grant them wisdom and discernment beyond their natural abilities, guiding their hands and minds to bring about healing. We also pray for protection over your father’s heart, that the Lord would strengthen it and prevent any further complications from the strain of blood loss.

As you go to visit him, we pray that the Lord fills you with His peace, which surpasses all understanding (Philippians 4:7). Let your presence be a source of comfort and encouragement to your father, reminding him of the hope we have in Christ. Speak life and faith over him, for *"the tongue of the wise brings healing"* (Proverbs 12:18). Even in moments of fear or uncertainty, let your words reflect trust in the Lord’s sovereignty.

We also want to remind you that this trial is not without purpose. The Lord may be using this time to draw your father—and your entire family—closer to Himself. If your father does not yet know the Lord as his personal Savior, we urge you to share the hope of the Gospel with him. There is no greater comfort than knowing that our eternal destiny is secure in Christ. Romans 10:9 tells us, *"that if you will confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved."* If he does know the Lord, then let this be a time of deepened faith and reliance on Him.

Now, let us pray together:

Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, lifting up this dear father to Your throne of grace. Lord, You are the God who sees all things, who knows the number of hairs on our heads, and who understands the deepest needs of our bodies. We ask that You reveal the source of this bleeding to the medical team caring for him. Give them supernatural wisdom and skill to stop it completely and restore his body to full health. Strengthen his heart, Lord, and protect it from any further strain or damage. Let his blood levels stabilize and his strength return swiftly.

Father, we also pray for this child of Yours who is walking through this valley. Comfort them with Your presence and remind them that You are near to the brokenhearted (Psalm 34:18). Fill them with Your peace as they visit their father, and use them as an instrument of Your love and hope. If there is any fear or doubt creeping in, Lord, replace it with faith and trust in Your goodness.

We declare that this situation is not beyond Your control. You are the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End, and nothing takes You by surprise. We ask that You use this trial for Your glory—whether through healing, through strengthened faith, or through salvation. Let Your will be done, Lord, and let Your name be praised through it all.

We rebuke any spirit of fear, confusion, or despair that may try to take hold in this situation. By the authority of Jesus Christ, we command these spirits to flee, and we declare that peace, clarity, and healing will reign instead.

Thank You, Lord, for hearing our prayers. Thank You for being a God who heals and restores. We trust in You, and we give You all the glory, honor, and praise. In the precious and powerful name of Jesus, we pray. Amen.
