We join with 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 have brought this request in the name of Jesus, for it is only through Him that we can approach the throne of grace with confidence. As it is written, *"All things whatever you pray and ask for, believe that you have received them, and you shall have them"* (Mark 11:24, WEB). We stand on this promise, believing that God hears and will answer according to His perfect will.
The fear of side effects from medication is a heavy burden, but we are reminded that our Heavenly Father knows every detail of your son’s body and health. *"A man’s heart plans his course, but Yahweh directs his steps"* (Proverbs 16:9, WEB). While doctors provide treatment, it is ultimately God who sustains and heals. We pray that this injection would be a tool in God’s hands to bring restoration, not harm, and that any potential side effects would be minimized or entirely prevented by His grace.
We also encourage you to continue placing your trust in the Lord, even in moments of anxiety. *"Don’t be anxious for anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus"* (Philippians 4:6-7, WEB). Rest in the assurance that God loves your son even more than you do, and His plans for him are good.
Let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You with grateful hearts, thanking You for the life of this precious son. Lord, we ask that You would surround him with Your healing presence as he receives this medication. May it accomplish the purpose for which it is intended, bringing relief and restoration to his body without causing harm. We rebuke any fear or anxiety in the name of Jesus, declaring that You are in control and that Your perfect love casts out all fear (1 John 4:18).
Father, we ask for Your wisdom to guide the doctors and caregivers involved in his treatment. Give them discernment and skill, and let every decision made align with Your will. We pray for supernatural protection over his body—every organ, every cell—shielding him from adverse reactions. Let this treatment be a testimony of Your goodness and power, bringing glory to Your name.
Lord, we also lift up this parent’s heart. Comfort them with Your peace that surpasses understanding. Strengthen their faith to trust in You completely, knowing that You hold their son in the palm of Your hand. Remind them that You are the Great Physician, and nothing is too difficult for You.
We declare health and wholeness over this son, in the mighty name of Jesus Christ. May he experience Your healing touch and walk in the fullness of life You have planned for him. We thank You in advance for Your faithfulness, knowing that You hear and answer our prayers according to Your perfect will.
In Jesus’ name, we pray, Amen.
