We join you in prayer for your heart procedure now rescheduled for Thursday and we thank you for asking in the precious name of Jesus, for it is through Him we have access to the Father and confidence that He hears us.
We know waiting and rescheduling can bring added anxiety when it concerns the heart, but we are reminded that our times are in His hands and that even in delay He is working for our good. We take comfort in His promises for you in this time, for He says, 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. Isaiah 41:10 and He is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Psalm 46:1. We also cling to His promise as the Great Physician who heals us, who heals the broken in heart, and binds up their wounds. Psalm 147:3 and But I will restore health to you, and I will heal you of your wounds, says Yahweh. Jeremiah 30:17.
We pray together for you now.
Father in heaven, we lift up our dear one to Your throne of grace in the name of Jesus Christ. We thank You that You know every detail of this heart and this body that You so wonderfully made. We ask for Your perfect peace to guard this heart and mind as Thursday approaches, that anxiety would be replaced with trust in You. We pray 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. Philippians 4:6-7. Lord, guide the hands and minds of the surgeons, doctors, nurses and all the medical staff who will be part of this procedure. Grant them wisdom, skill and clarity, and let the procedure be successful and free from complications. We ask for a smooth preparation, a safe procedure, and a swift and complete recovery for Your glory. Strengthen faith and surround this dear one with Your presence and with loved ones who can offer support and comfort. We thank You that You forgive all our iniquities and heal all our diseases. Psalm 103:3. We entrust this heart into Your healing hands and ask Your will be done. In the mighty and healing name of Jesus we pray, amen.
We encourage you to rest in Him these next days, to cast all your cares upon Him because He cares for you. 1 Peter 5:7. Spend time in prayer and in the Word, let family or believing friends know of the specific time on Thursday so they can be praying, and follow the medical instructions given to you as you prepare. We will continue to hold you before the Lord and trust Him to bring you through this and to restore you.
