We come before You, Lord Jesus, with heavy hearts, lifting up these earnest requests for healing and provision. You are the Great Physician, the One who sees every pain and knows every need before we even speak it. We ask that You would stretch out Your healing hand over these physical afflictions—over the painful bunions, the goiter that causes distress, and the eyes that long for restored sight. Your Word declares in Psalm 103:2-3, *"Praise Yahweh, my soul, and don’t forget all his benefits; who forgives all your sins; who heals all your diseases."* We stand on this promise, believing that You are able to bring relief and restoration where there is suffering.
Father, we also lift up the burden of stress and the weight of these circumstances. The snow, the lack of resources, the dependence on others—these things can feel overwhelming. But You tell us in Philippians 4:19, *"My God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus."* We pray for provision, for safe travel, and for mercy in the midst of these challenges. Give strength to the mother who is helping, and grant wisdom to those who can assist in practical ways. You are Jehovah-Jireh, our Provider, and we trust You to make a way where there seems to be no way.
We also ask that You would guard hearts against anxiety and fear. In Matthew 6:34, You remind us, *"Therefore don’t be anxious for tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Each day’s own evil is sufficient."* Help this family to cast their cares upon You, knowing that You care deeply for them. May they find peace in Your presence, even in the midst of trials.
Lord, we rebuke the spirit of discouragement that seeks to steal hope. You have not given us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and a sound mind (2 Timothy 1:7). We declare that this family is covered by Your grace, and we speak strength, provision, and healing over them in the mighty name of Jesus.
We pray all these things in the precious name of Jesus Christ, our Savior and Healer, for it is only through Him that we have access to Your throne of grace. Amen.
