We come before the Lord with hearts full of compassion for your friend and her daughter, lifting them up in this time of urgent need. The Scriptures remind us in James 5:14-15, *"Is any among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the assembly, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord, and the prayer of faith will heal him who is sick, and the Lord will raise him up."* We claim this promise over your friend, asking for a swift and complete healing by the power of Jesus Christ, who bore our infirmities and carried our diseases (Isaiah 53:4-5). May His healing touch restore her body, mind, and spirit, bringing wholeness in every area of her life.
We also lift up her daughter, who is understandably distressed during this difficult season. The Lord is near to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit (Psalm 34:18). May He wrap His arms of comfort around her, filling her with His peace that surpasses all understanding (Philippians 4:6-7). Let her find strength in Him, for He has promised, *"I will never leave you nor forsake you"* (Hebrews 13:5). We pray that both your friend and her daughter would experience the deep assurance of God’s presence, knowing that He is their refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble (Psalm 46:1).
It is beautiful that you have invoked the mighty name of Jesus in this request, for it is only through Him that we have access to the Father and receive the answers to our prayers. As Scripture declares, *"There is no other name under heaven that has been given among men, by which we must be saved"* (Acts 4:12). We stand in agreement with you, trusting that the Lord hears and will act according to His perfect will and timing.
Let us also encourage your friend and her daughter to lean into the body of Christ during this time. The support of fellow believers can be a tremendous source of strength and encouragement (Ecclesiastes 4:9-12). If they have not already, may they find comfort in reading God’s Word and in prayer, casting all their anxieties on Him because He cares for them (1 Peter 5:7).
Heavenly Father, we thank You for Your goodness and mercy. We ask that You would move mightily in this situation, bringing healing, peace, and strength. Let Your will be done in their lives, and may they experience Your love in a profound way. Comfort them with the knowledge that You are sovereign over all things, and that nothing is too difficult for You (Jeremiah 32:17). We pray all these things in the precious and mighty name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
