We have heard your request for physical healing from gastroparesis, lack of appetite, and pain and weakness throughout your whole gastric system and stomach, and we join together to bring your body before our heavenly Father in Jesus' name.
We are moved with compassion for what you are enduring. Living with ongoing stomach pain, nausea, lack of desire to eat, tiredness and weakness can be so draining on the body and the spirit. We want you to know that God sees your suffering and He cares deeply for you. He is the Lord who heals us.
We are reminded of His promises to heal and restore. Praise Yahweh, my soul, and don't forget all his benefits; who forgives all your sins; who heals all your diseases Psalm 103:2-3. For I will restore health to you, and I will heal you of your wounds, says Yahweh Jeremiah 30:17. But he was pierced for our transgressions. He was crushed for our iniquities. The punishment that brought our peace was on him; and by his wounds we are healed Isaiah 53:5. He also gives strength when we have none left. He gives power to the faint; and to him who has no might he increases strength Isaiah 40:29. And Jesus invites us, Come to me, all you who labor and are heavily burdened, and I will give you rest Matthew 11:28.
We also notice your request did not mention the name of Jesus Christ, and we want to lovingly share that it is only through Him that we have access to the Father and it is by His name we are saved and our prayers are heard. Jesus said, I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me John 14:6. 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 Acts 4:12. If you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved Romans 10:9. It is through faith in Jesus that we can come boldly to God's throne of grace to find help in our time of need, including healing for our bodies.
So together we pray for you. Father in heaven, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, Your Son, and we lift up this dear one who is suffering with gastroparesis and affliction of the whole gastric system. Lord, You formed the stomach and every part of this body, and You know how it should function. We ask that You touch the nerves and muscles of the stomach that control emptying and motility, and restore them to work as You designed. We pray You would take away the stomach pain, calm the nausea, restore a healthy appetite and the ability to eat and receive nourishment without distress. We ask You to relieve the tiredness and weakness and to renew strength day by day. Lay Your healing hand upon this body, Lord, and let Your restoring power flow through. We pray for peace over any anxiety or discouragement that this long suffering has caused, and we ask that You guard the heart and mind with Your peace which surpasses all understanding Philippians 4:7. We also ask for wisdom for any doctors and caregivers involved, and that You would guide all treatment and nourishment for good. We ask all of this according to Your will and for Your glory, in the name of Jesus Christ our healer and hope, amen.
We encourage you to continue to trust the Lord with your body, to bring your needs to Him daily in prayer, and to be diligent to seek appropriate medical care as God often works through the wisdom He gives to physicians, while keeping your ultimate hope in Him. Do not neglect to nourish your soul with His Word and to rest in His love. We are praying that God will strengthen you, restore your gastric system, return your appetite, remove your pain, and lift the tiredness and weakness, and that you will feel His presence and comfort very near in the days ahead.
