We come before the throne of grace with heavy yet hopeful hearts, lifting your ### up to our Heavenly Father, who is the Great Physician and the God of all comfort. The fear and uncertainty your ### is facing are deeply felt, and we stand with you in prayer, trusting in the Lord’s sovereignty and mercy. The Scriptures remind us in Psalm 112:7, *"He will not be afraid of evil news. His heart is steadfast, trusting in Yahweh."* Though the news of a tumor and swollen lymph nodes is overwhelming, we know that our God is greater than any diagnosis, and nothing is impossible for Him.
We also take courage in Jeremiah 17:14, where the prophet cries out, *"Heal me, O Yahweh, and I will be healed. Save me, and I will be saved; for you are my praise."* Your ###’s situation is not hidden from the Lord, and we pray that tomorrow’s results would bring clarity, hope, and even the miraculous—whether through a revelation that the initial findings were incorrect or through a path of treatment that brings healing and restoration. The Lord is able to do far more than we can ask or imagine, and we trust in His perfect will.
Yet, we also acknowledge that our trust in God is not based solely on the outcome we desire but on His character—He is good, faithful, and wise. Even if the results confirm the worst fears, we know that God is still on the throne, and His grace is sufficient. As Paul reminds us in 2 Corinthians 12:9, *"He has said to me, 'My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.'"* Your ###’s weakness in this moment is an opportunity for God’s strength to be displayed, and we pray that he would feel the peace of Christ guarding his heart and mind, as Philippians 4:6-7 assures us.
We also encourage you both to lean into the body of Christ during this time. Isolation can amplify fear, but community and prayer can bring comfort and strength. Share this burden with trusted believers who can surround your ### with love, prayer, and practical support. And let this trial be a reminder to seek the Lord’s face more earnestly, drawing near to Him with honesty and faith. He is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit (Psalm 34:18).
Now, let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You with humble and expectant hearts, lifting our ### to You. Lord, You know his fear, his pain, and the weight of the unknown pressing upon him. We ask that You would be his peace and his strength in this moment. Tomorrow, as he goes for his CT scan results, we pray for Your hand to move in power. If it is Your will, Lord, let the news be good—let there be no tumor, no swelling, no cause for fear. Let the doctors be amazed at what You have done, and let this be a testimony of Your healing power.
But even if the news is not what we hope for, we pray that Your presence would be undeniable. Fill him with a supernatural peace that surpasses understanding, and remind him that You are with him every step of the way. Guide the doctors to wisdom and skill, and open doors for the best possible treatment and care. Surround him with Your love through family, friends, and the body of Christ, so that he never feels alone in this battle.
Lord, we also pray for his faith to grow through this trial. Let him experience You in a deeper way, knowing that You are his refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble (Psalm 46:1). Give him the courage to trust You, even when the path is unclear, and let this season draw him closer to You.
We rebuke the spirit of fear in the name of Jesus Christ. Fear does not come from You, but You have given us a spirit of power, love, and self-discipline (2 Timothy 1:7). Fill him with Your Holy Spirit, comforting him and reminding him that You hold his future in Your hands.
Father, we ask all of this in the mighty and precious name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, who bore our sicknesses and carried our pains (Isaiah 53:4). May Your will be done, and may Your name be glorified through this situation. Amen.
We will continue to stand with you in prayer, trusting that God is at work, even in the waiting. Keep us updated so we can rejoice with you in answers to prayer or lift you up further as needed. The Lord is near to all who call on Him in truth.
Prayer Focus: God, Thank You for loving me. God, I ask You in Jesus’ name please bless me with everything that I stand in need of and everything You want me to have. God bless me to prosper, walk in excellent health, and never stop growing in the love, grace, and knowledge of Christ Jesus. God bless me to know You in truth, fall in love with You with all my heart, mind, soul, body, and strength and never fall out of love with You. Bless me to have an ever growing closer stronger, more intimate relationship with You. Bless me with the love, desire, strength, and the spirit of obedience to always delight myself in You, seek first Your kingdom, Your righteousness, and to always respect and obey You.
