STROOOOONGGGG PRAYERSSSS
We hear your urgent cry and we are lifting you up together before the Lord, for He sees your fear and your need regarding your eyesight and your health and He cares deeply for you. We understand how frightening it is when your body is struggling and you feel overwhelmed, but we want you to know you are not alone and you are not forgotten by God.
The Lord speaks directly to this kind of fear and distress in His Word. He says in Isaiah 41:10 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. And again in Psalm 34:4 I sought Yahweh, and he answered me, and delivered me from all my fears. We cling to the promise in Jeremiah 30:17 But I will restore you to health, and I will heal you of your wounds, says Yahweh. And we remember that Yahweh opens the eyes of the blind as declared in Psalm 146:8. For God didn't give us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and self-control as we read in 2 Timothy 1:7. When anxiety rises, we are encouraged in Philippians 4:6-7 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.
We encourage you to continue to bring every fear and every symptom to the Lord in prayer, and also to seek wise medical care promptly for your eyes and your health, trusting that God often works through the hands of physicians and He is the ultimate healer. Keep crying out to Him day and night, rest in His presence, and let others around you who love you know of your struggle so they can support you.
We also noticed your request did not mention the name of Jesus, and we want to lovingly share that it is only through Jesus Christ that we have access to the Father and it is only by His name that we are saved. Jesus said in John 14:6 I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me. And in Acts 4:12 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. If you have not already, we urge you to place your trust in Jesus Christ, believing that He died for your sins and rose again, and to call upon His name for salvation and for daily help. It is in His name that our prayers are heard.
We join together now to pray for you.
Father in heaven, we come before You together in the mighty name of Jesus Christ and we lift up this dear one who is so scared and in a horrible situation with their eyesight and health. Lord, You know every detail of what is happening in their body and every fear in their heart. We ask for Your mercy and Your healing touch. Restore health, heal wounds, and we pray specifically for their eyes, that You would protect their vision, bring clarity, and guide every doctor and treatment according to Your will. Replace fear with Your perfect peace and power and love and self-control. Let them feel Your presence upholding them with Your righteous right hand. Draw them close to Jesus, assure them of Your love and salvation, and let Your peace which surpasses all understanding guard their heart and mind in Christ Jesus. We will continue to remember them before You. We ask all this in the name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, amen.

We hear how frightened you are right now, and how heavy this feels with your eyesight and health on your mind. Thank you for reaching out and letting us know so honestly. You are not forgotten, and we will keep remembering you in prayer.
When fear runs high and health feels uncertain, it can be overwhelming to carry alone. If you have not already, we gently encourage you to reach out soon to your doctor or eye care provider about what you are experiencing, and to let a trusted family member, friend, or pastor know what you are going through so you have support close by as you wait for answers and care. You do not have to hold all of this by yourself.
We are standing with you and asking God to meet you in this scary place.
Father, we lift our friend to You in Jesus' name. You see the fear and the horrible situation they are facing, and You know every need of their body and eyes. Please bring Your peace to calm their heart, Your presence to remind them they are not alone, and Your wisdom and help through the doctors and care available. Guide each next step and hold them steady in Your love. In Jesus' name, amen.

Your trembling and fearful cry has been heard, and I would lay it before the Lord with strong and earnest prayer for your eyesight and your health.
The Lord saith, Comfort ye, comfort ye my people. It is His own command, and it comes to angels, for the angel of the Lord encampeth round them that fear Him, and they are ministering spirits sent forth to minister unto them who are heirs of salvation, and it comes also to all His people to comfort one another. You are not forgotten, though your situation seems horrible and your heart is sore afraid. He that numbers the hairs of your head knows the dimness of your eyes and the weakness of your frame.
I beseech you, as one who loves your soul, cast all your care upon Him, for He careth for you. Have you not found that the very anxiety which arises through your being in a difficulty unfits you to meet that difficulty. Anxiety confined to yourself will bring no good, but faith overcomes fear. Play the man, as a believer in the Lord Jesus Christ, and tell your trouble unto Him who is able to bear it. Fear Him who alone is to be feared, and let no other fear torment you.
There is but one great Physician who lays His hands on men and they are restored, and there is but one sacred Fountain opened on Calvary. Jesus is the Tree of Life, and the leaves of that tree are for the healing of the nations. As need is banished and infirmity is shut out where He reigns, so He bringeth healing to His people here below. The abiding power of those healing leaves keeps the soul of the believer in perpetual health, and the same hand that pardons iniquity can heal disease. The Lord has begun to heal us and the healing virtue which His grace has infused will work in us till we shall be without spot or wrinkle. We are on our way to eternal health, for we have the life within us which shall be perfect forever.
This is my comfort in my affliction, for Thy word hath quickened me. When He would comfort us He quickens us, and so we obtain comfort. Let His word quicken you now. Though you look back and think former days were better, and the present is clad in gloom, remember that you shall forget your misery and remember it as waters that pass away. What are waters that have passed away but a memory of mercy. He can restore you to health and lift you from depression of spirit, till you wonder that you ever made so much of your former suffering.
Therefore be of good comfort, O thou of little faith, why dost thou doubt. Had He not power over devils and diseases when He walked among men, and is He not Master still over every wind and wave that distresses you. Though your eyes be dim, He sees you. Though your body be weak, His strength is made perfect in weakness.
Let us pray together. O Lord our God and Father, and our Lord Jesus Christ Himself, look upon this afflicted one who is sore afraid for eyesight and health. Thou knowest the horrible dread that hath taken hold upon this heart. Speak comfortably, and say that warfare is accomplished and iniquity is pardoned through the blood of Christ. Lay Thy healing hand upon these eyes and this body, if it be Thy blessed will, and grant relief and restoration. Quicken this soul by Thy word, comfort the heart and establish it in every good word and work. Help this dear soul to cast all care upon Thee, to know whom it hath believed, and to stand upon the rock Christ Jesus without fear for the future. Let Thy comfort and Thy constancy both be given, that faith may overcome fear and peace may reign. In the name of Jesus our only Saviour and Physician, Amen.
