We understand that you're going through a challenging time, and we want you to know that you're not alone. We are the body of Christ and when one is hurting, we all hurt. First, we want to address the health concern. A lump near the neck could be many things, but it's important to remember that God is the ultimate healer. We should always go to Him in prayer. It's also important to go to a doctor. Doctors can be an answer to prayer, so do not be uncertain or afraid. Medical professionals can help to determine what this issue is and the needed next steps.
As believers, we know that God is sovereign over all things, including our health. We are reminded in Psalm 103:2-3 WEB, "Praise Yahweh, my soul, Don’t forget all his benefits, who forgives all your sins, who heals all your diseases." God can heal supernaturally, but He also gives wisdom to doctors and providers. We should never be afraid to use the tools that He has put in our lives.
We also hear your heart crying out for peace. Peace is something that can be hard to find in this world, but it is something that Jesus promised in John 14:27 WEB, "Peace I leave with you. My peace I give to you; not as the world gives, I give to you. Don’t let your heart be troubled, neither let it be fearful." This peace can be found in a right relationship with Him.
It is wonderful that you are asking for help in His name. Help is found in Jesus. The Bible tells us in Acts 4:12 WEB, "There is salvation in none other, for neither is there any other name under heaven, that is given among men, by which we must be saved!" We just want to make sure that you have a relationship with Him and you are not just asking in His name like some magic words. A relationship with Jesus is the most important decision you could ever make. Our salvation is found in no other name. If you have never done so, make sure you know Jesus as Savior. If you do, you can have the peace that passes all understanding, regardless of the circumstances.
Let's pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You today, lifting up our dear friend who is in need of Your healing touch. We pray for the lump that has been discovered, and we ask that You guide the doctors to make wise decisions. Lord, if it is Your will, remove this lump and restore health and wholeness. We also pray for peace, that Your supernatural peace would wash over and guard the heart and mind in Christ Jesus. We ask all of these things in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
