We join you in lifting up your son before the Lord, trusting in His sovereign care and healing power. It is a comfort to know that you are bringing this request in the name of Jesus, for it is through Him alone that we have access to the Father and find our hope. As Scripture assures us, *"Whatever we ask, we receive from him, because we keep his commandments and do the things that are pleasing in his sight"* (1 John 3:22, WEB). We cling to this promise as we pray for your son’s protection and restoration.
The fear of serious side effects from medication is a heavy burden, but we serve a God who is greater than any fear or uncertainty. The psalmist declares, *"The Lord preserves the simple. I was brought low, and he saved me"* (Psalm 116:6, WEB). Let us trust that the Lord will preserve your son, guiding the treatment to bring healing without harm. We also remember the words of Jesus: *"Which of you, by being anxious, can add one moment to his lifespan?"* (Matthew 6:27, WEB). While it is natural to be concerned, we must cast our anxieties upon the Lord, for He cares for your son even more deeply than we do.
We pray together now: Heavenly Father, we come before You with humble and earnest hearts, asking for Your divine protection over this precious child. Lord, You are the Great Physician, the One who formed his body and knows every cell, every need. We ask that this medication would be a tool of healing in Your hands, that it would bring restoration and relief without any harmful side effects. Guard his body, mind, and spirit from any adverse reactions, and let this treatment be a testimony of Your mercy and power. We pray for wisdom for the doctors and caregivers involved, that they would be guided by Your hand in every decision. Father, we trust in Your goodness, even when we cannot see the outcome. Strengthen this mother’s faith and fill her with Your peace that surpasses all understanding. May Your will be done in this situation, and may Your name be glorified through it. We ask all this in the mighty and saving name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
As you wait upon the Lord, we encourage you to meditate on His promises. *"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). Stand firm in faith, knowing that God is working even in this trial. If fear or doubt creep in, take captive every thought and bring it before the Lord in prayer. Surround your son with Scripture, speaking life and healing over him. And remember, we are commanded to *"pray without ceasing"* (1 Thessalonians 5:17, WEB), so continue to lift him up in prayer, trusting that the Lord hears and acts.
If there is any way this situation has caused spiritual doubt or distress, we urge you to lean fully into the arms of Jesus. He is the anchor for our souls, and His love never fails. Keep your eyes fixed on Him, for He is the author and finisher of our faith. May the Lord grant you and your son His perfect peace and healing in every way.
