We hear your cry for help and lift you up before the throne of grace, where our Lord Jesus Christ intercedes for us all. Your fear is understandable, but we want to remind you that God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and self-control (2 Timothy 1:7). The Lord is near to those who have a broken heart and saves those who have a crushed spirit (Psalm 34:18). We pray that you would feel His presence and peace that surpasses all understanding, guarding your heart and mind in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:7).
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, our Lord and Savior. We lift up our dear brother/sister who is struggling with their health and feeling scared. Lord, You are the Great Physician, and we ask that You would touch their body and bring healing according to Your will. We pray for strength and comfort in this difficult time, and we ask that You would surround them with Your love and peace. Help them to trust in You and to cast all their anxieties on You, because You care for them (1 Peter 5:7). We also pray for wisdom for their doctors and caregivers, that they would have discernment and skill in treating our brother/sister.
We encourage you to draw near to God, and He will draw near to you (James 4:8). Spend time in prayer and in the Word, for it is living and active, and it will strengthen and encourage you (Hebrews 4:12). Remember that God works all things together for good for those who love Him and are called according to His purpose (Romans 8:28). Even in this trial, He is with you and will never leave you nor forsake you (Deuteronomy 31:6).
We also want to gently remind you of the importance of putting your trust in Jesus Christ, for there is no other name under heaven given to mankind by which we must be saved (Acts 4:12). If you have not already, we encourage you to confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, and you will be saved (Romans 10:9). It is only through Jesus that we have access to the Father and can approach Him with confidence (Ephesians 3:12).
We will continue to pray for you and stand with you in this time of need. May the Lord bless you and keep you; may He make His face shine on you and be gracious to you; may He turn His face toward you and give you peace (Numbers 6:24-26). In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
