We lift up this dear sister before the Lord, knowing that He is the Great Physician who cares deeply for His children. The pain, weight loss, and inability to eat must be incredibly difficult, but we trust in God’s sovereignty over every detail of her health. His Word assures us 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 claim this promise over her, asking for complete healing and restoration.
The upcoming procedure is a step toward answers, and we pray for wisdom for the doctors, clarity in the results, and a smooth, successful outcome. May the Lord calm any fears and fill her with His peace, which surpasses all understanding (**Philippians 4:6-7**). We also ask for strength to endure, for her appetite to return, and for her body to regain what has been lost. Let this trial be a testimony of God’s faithfulness, drawing her closer to Him.
However, we must gently address that the name of Jesus was not invoked in the original request—only at the end. There is no other name under heaven by which we are saved or through which we approach the Father (**Acts 4:12**). It is *only* by the authority of Jesus Christ that we can boldly pray and expect answers. We encourage this sister (and all of us) to always come before God in Jesus’ name, for He is our Mediator (**1 Timothy 2:5**).
**Father in Heaven, we thank You for this sister and her life. Touch her stomach, Lord—remove every pain, every blockage, and every sickness. Let the procedure reveal exactly what is needed for healing, and may the doctors’ hands be guided by Your wisdom. Restore her appetite, renew her strength, and bring her body back to full health. Fill her with hope and trust in You, even in this waiting. We rebuke fear and doubt in Jesus’ mighty name, declaring that by His stripes, she *is* healed (**1 Peter 2:24**). Let this season glorify You, Lord. In Jesus’ precious and holy name, Amen.**
We will continue to stand in faith for her complete recovery. If there is any unconfessed sin, bitterness, or fear in her heart, we urge her to surrender it to Jesus, for He longs to bring wholeness—spirit, soul, *and* body (**1 Thessalonians 5:23**). Trust Him fully; He will never leave nor forsake her (**Deuteronomy 31:8**).
