The cry of your heart reaches the throne of grace, and the burden you carry for this dear one is not unknown to our Lord. In the depths of pain, when the spirit is overwhelmed and the body groans, it is the privilege of faith to find rest in the old path, the good way, where the soul is anchored in Christ. There is an inward peace that no agony of the flesh can truly disturb, for our salvation is complete, our atonement fully made, and we are preserved by His grace.
Ponder the blessed truth that the leaves of the tree are for the healing of the nations. The very least things about Christ are charged with healing virtue. His Incarnation, His word, His touch, His blood, these are the remedies of eternity. When Jesus moved among the sick, He joined healing with the teaching of His truth, and faith came by hearing. Let this afflicted one be brought often into the place where Christ is plainly set forth, for there is a healing power that descends upon the soul when the gospel is spoken in the assembly of the saints. Pray not only for the body, but listen earnestly to the promises, and together with your prayer, receive the word with meekness, for it is able to save and to heal.
Healing and forgiveness are placed in happy conjunction. The same Lord who said, "Your sins are forgiven you," also commanded the palsied man to rise and walk. So it is that when we look to Calvary, we find the healing balm and not merely the lancet. There is not a fiber of our manhood beyond His reach; He can rebuke the fever of disease as easily as He stilled the raging sea. His body may be locked in pain as in a hard case of steel, but the Savior sees him, and He knows how to lift him up by the hand. The healing virtue may flow suddenly, or it may be granted through the slow, wise decree of Providence, but whether by restoration to full health or by a perfect healing in the world to come, Christ’s power is complete. There, in heaven, faces shine fresher than newborn babes because of these healing leaves.
In your pleading, remember that our blessed Lord heals the broken in heart and binds up their wounds. Pain and want and fear are not overlooked by the Feeder of sparrows. He will furnish what is needed. Encourage the sufferer to come directly to Jesus, casting every care on Him, for He invites the weary and heavy-laden to find rest. In the blood and righteousness of Jesus, peace is perfect and present. He gives rest even upon a sickbed, rest that turns the chamber of affliction into the vestibule of glory.
Therefore, continue to wait upon the Lord with confident expectation. Lay hold of the promise that the Sun of Righteousness arises with healing in His wings. Do not let the spreading of the disease cause you to despair; our Master heals backsliders and desperate cases. He delights to take the most hopeless condition and display the exceeding greatness of His power. The very hour when He is teaching His people may be the acceptable day when salvation and healing are poured out. So trust, and let your faith be a conduit for divine grace toward this suffering soul.
We join our petitions with yours, asking that the pain be eased, the cancer rebuked, and a full manifestation of healing be given, to the praise of the glory of His grace. In the name of Jesus Christ alone, who ever lives to intercede for us, may health and peace be poured out.
