We join you in giving thanks to the Lord for His goodness, for every good and perfect gift comes from above and His steadfast love endures forever.
We lift up your need for good rest before the Father. He gives sleep to His beloved and we pray He will quiet your mind and body and grant you deep, restorative rest. It is vain for you to rise up early, to stay up late, eating the bread of toil, for he gives sleep to his loved ones, Psalm 127:2.
We also bring your wife before the throne of grace for healing. We pray that the Lord, who is our healer, would cause this cyst to dissolve and restore her to full health according to His mercy and will. We ask Him to touch her body, to remove any fear or pain, and to strengthen her. Who forgives all your sins, who heals all your diseases, Psalm 103:3. We hold to the promise that He will restore health to us and heal our wounds, Jeremiah 30:17, and we ask for His healing hand upon her now.
We pray for protection over your loved one whom you mentioned, that the Lord would be a shield around them, guarding them from harm and from the schemes of the enemy. We ask that the Lord who is faithful would guard you from the evil one, 2 Thess 3:3, and keep them in all their ways.
We want to lovingly and firmly address your struggle against lustful thoughts, for this is a battle that requires vigilance and repentance. Our Lord taught that everyone who gazes at a woman to lust after her has committed adultery with her already in his heart, Matthew 5:28. Even within the covenant of marriage, which God ordains as holy and honorable between a man and a woman, we are called to purity of heart and mind. Lust dishonors your marriage and grieves the Holy Spirit. We encourage you to flee sexual immorality as Scripture commands, 1 Cor 6:18, and to take every thought captive. God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted above what you are able, but will with the temptation also make the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it, 1 Cor 10:13. We counsel you to guard your eyes, to avoid sources of temptation, to fill your mind with what is true, honorable, just, pure, lovely and of good report, Phil 4:8, and to walk in the Spirit so you will not fulfill the lust of the flesh.
We noticed your prayer was addressed to Dear Lord but did not mention the name of Jesus Christ. We gently remind you that it is only through Jesus that we have access to the Father, for 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. It is by believing in Jesus Christ, that He died for our sins and rose again, that we are forgiven and can boldly approach God in prayer. We encourage you to place your full trust in Him and to pray in His mighty name.
We pray together with you now.
Father in heaven, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ Your Son. We thank You for Your goodness and mercy that follow us all the days of our lives. We ask You to grant our brother peaceful and deep rest tonight, to calm his heart and renew his strength. We lay hands in prayer upon his wife and ask for Your healing power to dissolve this cyst completely, to make her whole and healthy for Your glory. We pray Your hand of protection over their loved one, keep them safe from all harm and danger, seen and unseen. Lord, we confess the struggle with lustful thoughts and ask for Your forgiveness and cleansing. Purify his heart and mind, help him to flee temptation, to fix his eyes on You and to honor his marriage vows with complete faithfulness. Fill him with Your Holy Spirit that he may walk in holiness and self control. We ask all these things in the precious and powerful name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, amen.

We are thankful you brought these things to the Lord with a grateful heart, and we join you in thanking Him for His goodness to you and your family.
We hear how much you are carrying - wanting real rest for yourself, healing and peace for your wife as you wait to see what happens with her cyst, protection for your loved one, and a clear mind free from lustful thoughts. Those are good and loving prayers.
For your wife's health and for your sleep, it helps to stay close to wise medical care alongside prayer. We encourage you to make sure she stays in touch with her clinician about the cyst and any follow up they advise, and if restless nights continue, to talk with your own doctor as well. Sometimes just keeping a simple note of bedtime, wake time, and what seems to help or hurt sleep can give a doctor a clearer picture.
For the struggle with lustful thoughts, you are not alone in wanting to honor God in your thought life. We have found it helps to notice early when those thoughts begin and to turn quickly to the Lord in that moment, and also to limit what feeds them and to stay accountable with a trusted brother when needed.
Father, we thank You for Your goodness to this family. We ask You to grant restful sleep, to watch over his wife and bring her health according to Your mercy, to keep his loved one safe, and to give him strength and purity of mind as he walks with You. Lead him in Your peace day by day. In Jesus' name, amen.

Spurgeon
Beloved of All
We join our thanksgiving with yours for the goodness of the Lord, for every mercy flows from His gracious hand and His thoughts toward His people are precious and constant. How great is the sum of them, and how kind and tender are they toward those who trust in Him. It is well to begin with praise, for praise fits the lips of those who have tasted that the Lord is good.
We will carry your requests before the throne of grace.
For rest, we pray that the Lord who giveth His beloved sleep will grant you that soft and balmy sleep which is His own gift. He puts His fingers upon the eyelids of His children and lulls their thoughts into quiescence, giving not only the sleep of the body but the sleep of contentment and security in Christ. May you lie down in peace and awake to find yourself still with Him, your mind stayed upon His precious thoughts through the night and renewed for fresh service in the morning.
For your dear wife, we entreat the Great Physician who has healing in His wings. The leaves of the tree of life are for the healing of the nations, and even the least thing about Christ has healing virtue to change and restore. We pray that in His wisdom and mercy He would cause this cyst to dissolve, strengthen her frame, and restore her to full health, and above all make her to know His pardoning and healing presence. When He dwells with His people they find forgiveness and restoration together, for He heals the broken and binds up their wounds.
For the one you have named for protection, we ask the Lord to keep and cover that life under the shadow of His wings, to guard from all evil and to lead in the way everlasting. May His higher ways and higher thoughts order all things for good.
And concerning lustful thoughts, we pray that the Lord will conform your thoughts to His thoughts. Our thoughts by nature are not His thoughts, and if our thoughts run contrary to His we cannot have fellowship with Him. But He perceives every thought and He is able to cleanse the fountain within. May He set your mind upon His pure and holy thoughts, which are rare and excellent beyond all others, so that when temptation would intrude you may overcome by looking to Christ your familiar Friend who is alive and near. May He keep your heart and adorn your dwelling and your life with that which leads your thoughts aright, and give you grace to watch and pray and not to sleep as do others, but to walk in purity before Him.
May the Lord hear and answer according to His perfect will, and give you confidence in His constant, wise and gracious thoughts toward you in Christ Jesus. Amen.
