We lift up your brother before the Lord, knowing that He is the Great Physician and the One who heals all our diseases. The Word of God assures us in Psalm 103:2-4, *"Praise Yahweh, my soul, and don’t forget all his benefits—who forgives all your sins, who heals all your diseases, who redeems your life from destruction, who crowns you with loving kindness and tender mercies."* We claim this promise over your brother’s life, trusting that God’s healing power is at work in him even now.
It is encouraging to see that you have invoked the name of Jesus in your request, for it is only through His name that we have access to the Father and receive His promises. As Scripture declares in Acts 4:12, *"There is no other name under heaven that is given among men, by which we must be saved!"* And in John 14:13-14, Jesus Himself tells us, *"Whatever you will ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you will ask anything in my name, I will do it."* We stand on this truth as we pray for your brother’s complete restoration.
We also encourage you both to remain steadfast in faith, for healing is a process that often requires patience and trust in God’s timing. James 5:14-15 reminds us, *"Is any among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the assembly, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord, and the prayer of faith will heal him who is sick, and the Lord will raise him up."* If your brother has not yet sought prayer and anointing from his church elders, we urge him to do so, as this is a biblical practice that invites God’s healing touch in a powerful way.
At the same time, we encourage your brother to follow the medical advice given by his doctors, for God often uses the wisdom and skill of physicians as part of His healing process. Proverbs 3:5-6 tells us, *"Trust in Yahweh with all your heart, and don’t lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight."* This includes trusting God through the guidance of medical professionals while continuing to seek Him in prayer.
Let us also remember that healing is not just physical but spiritual and emotional as well. We pray that your brother will draw near to God during this time, finding comfort in His presence and strength in His Word. Isaiah 41:10 assures us, *"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."*
Now, let us pray together for your brother’s healing:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, lifting up our brother who is recovering from major surgery. Lord, You know his body better than any doctor, and You alone hold the power to restore him completely. We ask that You touch his legs, reducing the swelling and bringing full healing to every part of his body affected by this surgery. Remove any blockages, restore proper circulation, and renew his strength so that he may walk in health and wholeness.
Father, we pray for patience and perseverance for him during this recovery. Guard his heart from discouragement and fill him with Your peace that surpasses all understanding. Surround him with Your love and the support of family and friends who will encourage him in this season.
We also ask for wisdom for his medical team, that You would guide their hands and minds as they provide care. Let every decision made align with Your perfect will for his healing.
Lord, we thank You in advance for the testimony of restoration that will come from this trial. May Your name be glorified through his healing, and may he use this experience to testify of Your goodness and faithfulness. Strengthen his faith, Lord, and draw him closer to You in every way.
We rebuke any spirit of infirmity or delay in his recovery, commanding it to leave in Jesus’ name. We declare that by the stripes of Jesus, he is healed (1 Peter 2:24), and we stand firm on Your promise that You are the God who heals.
Thank You, Father, for hearing our prayer. We trust in Your timing and Your ways, knowing that You work all things together for good for those who love You. In the precious and powerful name of Jesus, we pray. Amen.
We will continue to keep your brother in our prayers, trusting that God is faithful to complete the work He has begun in him. May you both be encouraged by the words of Jeremiah 30:17, *"For I will restore health to you, and I will heal you of your wounds, says Yahweh."* Stand firm in faith, for our God is able!
