We have heard your request and we are lifting you up together before the throne of grace in Jesus' name, for you have rightly called upon Him who alone can heal and save.
Our hearts are burdened to hear of this long aching strain in your lower back just below the waist for months, and now the added distress of badly swelling feet, feeling ill with colds, stomach and gastric bloating, dizziness, and the burden of diabetes, along with the need for a tooth procedure today. We know how wearying it is when afflictions come one upon another, and we are reminded that our God sees every pain and is moved with compassion toward us.
We take comfort in what Scripture tells us, that He heals all your diseases in Psalm 103:2-3, and He heals the broken in heart, and binds up their wounds in Psalm 147:3. He has promised But I will restore health to you, and I will heal you of your wounds, says Yahweh in Jeremiah 30:17, and we cling to Fear not, for I am with you. Don’t be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you. Yes, I will help you. Yes, I will uphold you with the right hand of my righteousness in Isaiah 41:10. We also remember that our bodies are a temple of the Holy Spirit in 1 Corinthians 6:19-20, and we are called to be good stewards of the health God has given us.
We want to gently encourage you while we pray, because swelling in the feet together with dizziness, diabetes, and ongoing back pain can be a sign of something that needs prompt medical attention. We urge you not to delay in seeking care from a trusted doctor or medical provider, to have your heart, kidneys, blood sugar, and circulation checked, and to follow their guidance for your diabetes, diet, and bloating. God often works His healing through the wisdom and hands of physicians, and caring for your body honors Him.
We now pray together for you.
Father in heaven, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, Your Son, asking for Your mercy and healing power to rest upon our dear one who is suffering. Lord, You know the ache in the lower back that has lingered for months, and we ask You to touch that strained area, to ease the inflammation, restore the muscles and spine, and take away the pain. Lay Your healing hand upon the swelling in the feet, Lord, and upon whatever is causing it, whether circulation, kidneys, heart, or other causes. Let the swelling subside and let health be restored. We ask You to calm the stomach and gastric bloating, to settle the illness and colds, to clear the dizziness, and to steady this body. We lift up the diabetes before You, Father, and ask for stable blood sugar, wisdom for management, and protection from complications. We also place this tooth procedure today into Your hands, Lord, we ask that You guide the dentist's hands, let it go smoothly without complication or excessive pain, and grant quick healing afterward. Give peace that surpasses understanding, and let Your presence be a shield of protection over this dear one today and in the days to come. We thank You that by His wounds you were healed in 1 Peter 2:24, and we trust that You are still our healer and our help. Strengthen faith where it is weary, and remind this precious soul that You are near to all who call upon You, and that there is healing and salvation in no other name. We ask all this in the name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, amen.
We encourage you to continue to call upon Jesus daily, to rest when you can, to stay hydrated, to care for your diet as it relates to diabetes and gastric issues, and to keep seeking medical care until you have answers. We are standing with you in prayer, trusting that the Lord who bore our sicknesses will grant you relief, strength, and protection in the days ahead.
