We join you in lifting your husband before the Lord, standing in faith for his complete healing and trusting in God’s sovereign power over every aspect of his health. Your heart’s cry is heard, and we stand with you in agreement, knowing that our God is the Great Physician, the One who formed your husband in his mother’s womb and knows every cell of his body. He is the same God who declared in Jeremiah 30:17, *"For I will restore health to you, and I will heal you of your wounds,"* and in Psalm 103:2-3, we are reminded to *"Praise Yahweh, my soul, and don’t forget all his benefits—who forgives all your sins, who heals all your diseases."*
We are also mindful of James 5:14-15, which instructs us, *"Is any among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the assembly, 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."* While we cannot physically anoint him, we stand in the gap for him in prayer, trusting that the Lord will work mightily through this scan. We pray that the results will bring glory to God, testifying to His goodness and mercy, and that your husband’s body will respond to the healing touch of Jesus Christ.
However, we must also address something important in your request. While your faith and heart are in the right place, we notice that the name of Jesus was not invoked in your prayer. It is only through the name of Jesus Christ that we have access to the Father, and it is by His authority that we can boldly approach the throne of grace. Jesus Himself said in John 14:13-14, *"Whatever you will ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you will ask anything in my name, I will do it."* Additionally, Acts 4:12 declares, *"There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven that is given among men, by which we must be saved!"* Our prayers must always be offered in the name of Jesus, for He is our Mediator and the source of our confidence before God.
Let us pray together now:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty and holy name of Jesus Christ, lifting up this precious husband, Your child, who is in need of Your healing touch. Lord, You are the Alpha and Omega, the Beginning and the End, and nothing is hidden from Your sight. We ask that You go before him in this CT scan on Monday, that the results would bring glory to Your name. Father, we pray for shrinkage of any abnormal growth, for restoration of every cell, and for a testimony of Your healing power that cannot be denied. Let the doctors be amazed at what You have done, and let this be a moment where Your goodness is proclaimed.
Lord, we also ask that You strengthen this wife’s faith as she waits upon You. Fill her with Your peace that surpasses all understanding, guarding her heart and mind in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:7). Remind her that You are near to the brokenhearted and that You save those who are crushed in spirit (Psalm 34:18). We rebuke any fear or anxiety in the name of Jesus, declaring that You have not given a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and sound mind (2 Timothy 1:7).
Father, we thank You in advance for the good report, for we know that You are able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think (Ephesians 3:20). May this situation draw this couple closer to You and to each other, united in faith and love. We ask all these things in the precious and powerful name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
We encourage you to continue standing in faith, speaking life and healing over your husband, and declaring the promises of God over his body. Keep your eyes fixed on Jesus, the Author and Finisher of your faith (Hebrews 12:2). Trust that God is working all things together for good, even in this waiting season (Romans 8:28). If fear or doubt creep in, take those thoughts captive and replace them with the truth of God’s Word (2 Corinthians 10:5). You are not alone in this—God is with you, and we are standing with you in prayer.
Lastly, we urge you to ensure that your husband is also seeking the Lord personally, confessing any sin, and surrendering his heart fully to Christ. Healing is a gift from God, but our ultimate hope is not just in physical restoration but in eternal life through Jesus. If there is any area of his life that is not aligned with God’s will, now is the time to repent and turn fully to the Lord. Let this trial be a refining fire that draws you both into deeper intimacy with Him.
