We come before You, Heavenly Father, with hearts full of faith and trust in Your sovereign will. We lift up this dear brother who is battling lung cancer and Parkinson’s disease, asking for Your divine healing touch. Your Word declares in Jeremiah 30:17, "For I will restore health to you, and I will heal you of your wounds, says Yahweh." We ask that You restore his health according to Your perfect plan, whether through miraculous healing or the strength to endure with grace and peace. Lord, we know that Your ways are higher than ours, and we submit to Your will, trusting that You work all things for good for those who love You.
We also bring before You the concern about discretion in sharing personal matters with relatives. Proverbs 13:3 reminds us, "He who guards his mouth guards his soul. One who opens wide his lips comes to ruin." We pray for wisdom and self-control in conversations, that this brother and sister in Christ may speak with discernment and avoid unnecessary revelations that could lead to envy or strife. Father, we ask that You help them to walk in humility and prudence, guarding their hearts and minds in Christ Jesus.
Lord, we rebuke the spirit of sickness and disease that has taken hold in this beloved one’s body. We declare that by the stripes of Jesus, he was healed (Isaiah 53:5), and we stand on that promise. We also rebuke any spirit of pride or greed that may seek to disrupt family harmony or tempt others to covetousness. May this family be a testimony of Your love, grace, and provision, reflecting Your light in all they do.
We pray for peace and comfort to surround them, knowing that You are their refuge and strength. Help them to cast all their anxieties on You, for You care for them (1 Peter 5:7). Strengthen their faith as they wait on You, and fill their hearts with hope in Your promises.
In the mighty and matchless name of Jesus Christ, we pray. Amen.
