We lift up your brother-in-law before the Lord, the Great Physician, who heals all our diseases and binds up our wounds. Father, we come before You with heavy hearts, asking for Your divine intervention in this situation. Your Word tells us in Psalm 147:3, "He heals the broken in heart, and binds up their wounds." Lord, we claim this promise over your brother-in-law’s surgical wound. We ask that You would cleanse the infection, restore the damaged tissues, and bring complete healing to his body.
We also pray for wisdom and discernment for the medical team attending to him. Proverbs 3:5-6 reminds us, "Trust in Yahweh with all your heart, and don’t lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight." Guide the hands of the doctors and nurses, Lord, and give them insight into the best course of treatment for his recovery.
Father, we ask that You would comfort and strengthen your brother-in-law and his family during this challenging time. Let them feel Your presence and peace that surpasses all understanding, as it says 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 rebuke any spirit of fear, doubt, or despair that may be trying to take hold in this situation. We stand firm on Your Word, which declares in 2 Timothy 1:7, "For God didn’t give us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and self-control." We declare healing, restoration, and wholeness in the mighty name of Jesus.
Lord, we also ask that You would use this trial to draw your brother-in-law and his family closer to You. May they seek Your face and find refuge in You, knowing that You are their strength and shield. We trust in Your perfect will and timing, and we thank You for the healing that is already on its way. In Jesus’ name, we pray. Amen.
