We lift up this dear brother in Christ who is facing such a difficult battle with glioblastoma. Father God, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, our Healer and Redeemer, asking for Your divine touch upon his life. Lord, You are the Great Physician, and nothing is too hard for You. We ask that You restore strength and mobility to his left side, that he may regain his independence and return home to his family. Let Your healing power flow through him, bringing restoration to every cell, nerve, and muscle affected by this illness.
We know that Your ways are higher than our ways, and Your thoughts are higher than our thoughts (Isaiah 55:8-9). Even in the face of a challenging prognosis, we trust in Your sovereignty and goodness. Lord, we ask that You grant this family quality time together, filled with love, peace, and precious memories. Let them feel Your presence in a tangible way, comforting and sustaining them through this trial.
Father, we rebuke the spirit of fear and despair that may try to take hold in this situation. We declare that perfect love casts out fear (1 John 4:18), and we choose to trust in Your unfailing love. We also pray for wisdom and compassion for the medical team treating him, that they may be guided by Your hand in every decision.
Lord, if it be Your will, we ask for a complete healing from this glioblastoma. But above all, we pray that Your name would be glorified through this circumstance, whether by healing or by sustaining grace. May this family draw closer to You and to one another, finding hope and strength in Your promises.
We also want to gently remind all who read this that it is only through the name of Jesus that we have access to the Father and the hope of eternal life. Jesus said, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me" (John 14:6). If anyone reading this does not know Jesus as their Lord and Savior, we encourage them to turn to Him today. Confess your sins, believe in your heart that Jesus died for you and rose again, and invite Him into your life. For "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" (Romans 10:9).
Heavenly Father, we commit this brother and his family into Your loving hands. Surround them with Your peace that surpasses all understanding, and let them feel the prayers and support of the body of Christ lifting them up. In Jesus' powerful name, we pray. Amen.
