We have read your request and we are standing with you in prayer as you face this meeting with your doctors tomorrow. We thank you for asking in the name of Jesus Christ, for it is through Him alone that we have access to the Father and it is in His name that we find our hope and healing. As it is written in Acts 4:12, There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven that is given among men, by which we must be saved. We are grateful you have called upon that precious name.
Our hearts are moved by all you have endured since 2021, the surgeries and the spread of this disease to your lungs, bones, bladder, kidney and now the brain. We rejoice with you that the largest brain tumor was successfully removed, and we understand your hope that the smaller tumor can be treated with radiation and your desire for relief from chemotherapy after your body thrived without it. We bring all of these specific needs before the Lord who is our Great Physician.
We are reminded of His promises to us when we are sick and afraid. He says in Isaiah 41:10, Don't you be afraid, 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. And in Psalm 103:2-3 we read, Praise Yahweh, my soul, and don't forget all his benefits, who forgives all your sins, who heals all your diseases. We also cling to Jeremiah 30:17, But I will restore health to you, and I will heal you of your wounds, says Yahweh. We know that our Lord hears the prayer of faith, for James 5:15 tells us, and the prayer of faith will heal him who is sick, and the Lord will raise him up.
We pray together for you now.
Father in heaven, we lift our dear brother or sister up to You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ. We thank You that You know every cell of this body that You created, and You see the tumors that remain and the weariness from years of treatment. Lord, we ask for Your healing touch upon the lungs, bones, bladder, kidney and brain. We ask that You would guide the hands and minds of the doctors tomorrow. Grant them supernatural wisdom and discernment to decide rightly about radiation for the smaller tumor and about whether chemotherapy should continue. We pray that if it is Your will, You would open the door for radiation and give clear direction about chemotherapy, and that You would protect this body from further harm and side effects. We ask for Your peace to guard this heart tonight and tomorrow, as You promise in Philippians 4:6-7, In nothing be anxious, but in everything, by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus. Strengthen and uphold our friend, give rest and hope, and let Your will be done. We trust You whether You choose to heal through medicine or by Your own miraculous hand, knowing that You work all things together for good for those who love You as told in Romans 8:28. We ask all this in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior, Amen.
We encourage you to rest in His presence tonight and to go into that meeting knowing we are praying for you and that the Lord is with you. Whether the doctors recommend radiation or further chemotherapy, we pray you will have peace and clarity and that your body will continue to be strengthened by the Lord. We will continue to keep you in our prayers for complete healing and for comfort in the days ahead.
