We join you in lifting up your son before the throne of grace and we thank you for praying in the precious name of Jesus, for it is only through Him that we have access to the Father and it is in His name that healing and hope are found.
We are moved by your love as a parent and your faith in asking God to surround your son with His healing presence. We stand with you asking the Lord to touch his body, to remove every harmful side effect from his medication, to strengthen his lungs and to calm his anxiety so that his breathing may be eased. We also join you in praying for the hospital medical team, that God would guide their hands and minds with divine wisdom and discernment.
Scripture reminds us of the Lord's heart to heal and to comfort. Praise Yahweh, my soul, and don't forget all his benefits, who forgives all your sins, who heals all your diseases Psalm 103:2-3. And the Lord declares, But I will restore health to you, and I will heal you of your wounds, says Yahweh Jer 30:17. For anxiety and troubled breathing, we cling to His promise, In nothing be anxious, 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 Phil 4:6-7. He also says, Don't you 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 Isa 41:10.
We pray together now.
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus and we thank You for hearing our prayers. We lift up this beloved son to You and ask that You lay Your healing hand upon him. Touch his body, Lord, cleanse it from every harmful effect of medication and restore what has been weakened. Breathe strength into his lungs, calm his spirit, and let Your perfect peace guard his heart and mind and ease his breathing. We ask that You anoint the doctors and nurses who care for him, granting them wisdom, skill and discernment beyond their own understanding to treat him according to Your will. For You are Yahweh who heals us Exod 15:26. We trust Your unfailing love and Your power to restore, and we thank You in advance for the work You are doing. Let Your presence be felt tangibly by him and by his family, bringing comfort and assurance that You are near to those who call upon You. We ask all this in the mighty and healing name of Jesus, Amen.
We encourage you to continue to cast every care upon Him, resting in the assurance that He cares deeply for your son and for you. Keep praying without ceasing, keep thanking Him even as you wait, and trust that whether healing comes instantly or through the wisdom He gives to the medical team, His hand is at work for good.
