Praying in Jesus Name.

 

[Silas]

Thank you for honestly sharing your heart and the many burdens you are carrying. We have prayed for you and we continue to bring you before our Heavenly Father in the name of Jesus Christ.

Your request reminds us of the man with leprosy who came to Jesus and said, if you are willing you can make me clean. Jesus answered that He is willing. In the law God even made a provision for the cleansing of a leper, though leprosy had no human cure. That shows something beautiful about the Lord. Even when a condition looks incurable to us, God leaves room for His own work. We should not put Him in a box or decide what He can or cannot do. Leprosy is used in Scripture as a picture of sin, because like sin it spreads and corrupts and no effort of our own can remove it. Only a divine work of grace can cleanse it. Jesus is willing to do that divine work, and He did it through the cross. Whatever He does for us, He does by grace, not because we have earned it or obligated Him through our own efforts. We cannot deserve His help.

That is why when we pray for healing we also remember the deeper need. Often our first concern is relief for the body, but our greatest need is forgiveness and a clean heart before God. The Lord sees you completely. Nothing is hidden from Him, not your struggles, not your pain, not the things others cannot see. He understands our weakness with compassion and love. As David testified, He lifts us out of the pit and the mire, sets our feet on a rock and establishes our steps, so that we can then tell others what He has done. Real service and real ministry flow out of prayer and out of what the Lord Himself has worked in us. It is not by works of righteousness that we have done, but by His mercy.

So we have prayed for you in the way you asked, that God will give you wisdom, guidance, strategy, support and blessing in every area, and that all of it will be for His glory.

We asked the Lord to give you wisdom from above for your spiritual life and for the ministries He has entrusted to you, that you would grow in maturity, be built up in Christ, and bear fruit that remains. We prayed for your work and business, that God would give you clear direction and integrity in all you do, and that you would watch faithfully for the Master, doing the portion of work He has assigned to you. We prayed for your desire for marriage and family, that the Lord would lead you to a godly wife according to His design for marriage as a lifelong covenant between one man and one woman, and that any relationship would be kept pure, honoring God with your body and your commitment, with affection and intimacy kept within that covenant alone. We prayed for your finances, that God would provide for your needs and teach you to steward what He provides. We prayed for your friendships and relationships, that He would surround you with faithful people and help you to be a faithful friend. We prayed for your physical activity and sport, for strength and discipline to care for the body God has given you. And we prayed for every other area of your life, that the Holy Spirit would lead you step by step and that Christ would be glorified in all of it. If you ask for wisdom, God promises to give it generously to those who ask in faith.

We also brought your body before the Lord for complete healing in His will and timing. We prayed for your teeth and especially the upper wisdom tooth on the right, for your eyes, for your entire left leg and the left side of your pelvis, for the lump in the upper part of your left thigh and the lump on your abdomen under the skin, and for your stomach, intestines and entire gastrointestinal tract. We ask that Jesus, who went about doing good and healing every kind of sickness, would lay His hand upon you and bring restoration as He wills. We leave room for Him to work and we trust His timing. Sometimes we give God a time frame and become discouraged when He does not act when we expect, like those who thought it was too late when Lazarus had already died. Yet the Lord is never too late. His timing is perfect, and His work is marvelous in our eyes.

Continue to seek Him, to pray, and to trust His grace. He who began a good work in you will be faithful to complete it. May the Lord bless you, heal you, guide you, and make your life a witness to what His grace has done, so that others may see and give glory to God through Jesus Christ our Lord.
