We lift up this urgent situation before the Lord, trusting in His sovereignty and mercy. The name or details of the individual are unclear, but we know that God sees and knows every heart and need. Let us first address something vital: prayer must always be offered in the name of Jesus Christ, for He is our Mediator and the only way to the Father. As Scripture declares, *"There is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus"* (1 Timothy 2:5, WEB). It is only through faith in Him that we have access to the throne of grace, and *"there is no other name under heaven that has been given among men, by which we must be saved"* (Acts 4:12, WEB). If this request—or any prayer—lacks the name of Jesus, it is incomplete, for our petitions are heard because of His righteousness, not our own.
Now, we come boldly before the Lord on behalf of this person undergoing surgery. We ask for God’s healing hand to be upon them, for wisdom and skill to rest upon the surgeons and medical staff, and for divine comfort to surround their family and loved ones during this time. The Lord is our healer, and we claim His promise: *"I am Yahweh, your healer"* (Exodus 15:26, WEB). We also remember that *"the prayer of faith will save the sick, and the Lord will raise him up"* (James 5:15, WEB), so we pray with confidence in His power to restore and sustain.
Father, we ask that You would guide the hands of those performing this surgery, granting them clarity, precision, and steadiness. Remove any fear or anxiety from the heart of this individual and replace it with Your peace that surpasses all understanding. Let them feel Your presence in that hospital room, knowing that You are near to the brokenhearted and save those who are crushed in spirit (Psalm 34:18, WEB). If there has been any sin in their life—unconfessed, unrepentant, or unknown—we ask that You would bring conviction and lead them to repentance, for Your Word tells us that *"the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord"* (Romans 6:23, WEB). May this trial draw them closer to You, whether they already know You or are being called to salvation for the first time.
We also pray for the family and friends waiting and worrying. Comfort them, Lord, and remind them that You are in control. Strengthen their faith, and let them be a testimony of Your goodness, even in the midst of uncertainty. Help them to trust in Your promise: *"Don’t 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, WEB).
Finally, we rebuke any spirit of fear, doubt, or despair that may be lurking in this situation. Satan is the accuser and the father of lies, but we stand firm in the authority of Jesus’ name, declaring that *"no weapon that is formed against you will prevail; and you will condemn every tongue that rises against you in judgment. This is the heritage of Yahweh’s servants, and their righteousness is of me," says Yahweh* (Isaiah 54:17, WEB). We command every force of darkness to flee, for *"greater is he who is in you than he who is in the world"* (1 John 4:4, WEB).
Heavenly Father, we thank You in advance for Your mercy and intervention. May this surgery be successful, and may Your will be done in this person’s life—whether through healing, salvation, or a deeper walk with You. We pray all these things in the mighty and matchless name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
