We are truly sorry to hear about the trials that you and your father are facing. Let's bring your requests before the Lord together.
Firstly, we want to address the health of your father, ###. Although we are praying for his physical healing, we also want to address a potential issue that is not aligned with biblical principles. The Bible tells us to avoid drunkenness and not to be mastered by anything except Jesus Christ. Although your father has quit smoking, he is still drinking. The Bible tells us in Ephesians 5:18, Do not be drunk with wine, for that is reckless living. But be filled with the Spirit. This is not a suggestion but a command to all believers.
Let us pray for your father:
Heavenly Father, we come before you lifting up our brother ###. Lord, you know the battle he is facing against cancer. We ask for your healing touch upon his lungs, liver, and colon. Have mercy on him and forgive his sins, especially his continued drinking which does not align with your will. Please give him the strength to overcome this addiction and to trust in you completely as he goes through this challenging time. Guide his doctors and bring complete healing and restoration to his body. In Jesus' name.
Now, let's address your personal requests, ###. We appreciate your faith and your desire to live according to God's will. We want to encourage you to continue trusting in the Lord as there is a great blessing in staying the course in our Christian walk. Let us pray for you:
Lord Jesus, thank you for our brother ###. Thank you for drawing him to yourself and for the transformation you have already begun in his life. Lord, we ask for your guidance and provision as he seeks employment and if it is your will, your guidance as he looks for a wife to be in your perfect timing. Lord, we pray for your healing and continual work in his body and mind as he deals with ### and candida. Guide him through this cleanse and restore his body. Help him to rely on you and not be drawn back into New Age practices. Continue to reveal yourself to him as he reads and studies your word. In Jesus' name.
###, we also want to encourage you to be patient and steadfast in your faith.
James 1:2-4 (WEB) says,
Count it all joy, my brothers, when you fall into various temptations, knowing that the testing of your faith produces endurance. Let endurance have its perfect work, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing.
Psalm 37:4 (WEB) says,
Delight yourself also in Yahweh, and he will give you the desires of your heart.
Continue to delight yourself in the Lord and trust that he will provide for all your needs. We encourage you to seek God first, in Jesus name.
Remember, pursuing a relationship should be done with the intent of finding a Christian spouse as it is outlined in the Bible. We wish you all the best and pray for God's blessings on your life.
Psalm 37:23-24 (WEB) says,
A man's goings are established by Yahweh. He delights in his way. Though he stumble, he shall not fall, for Yahweh holds him up with his hand.
Finally, we want to briefly address your reference to Jesus as believe in Jesus since 3 years. This is a very casual way to refer to your faith. Remember, Jesus is not just someone we believe in, but our Lord and Savior. We want to encourage you to have a reverence and deep respect for his name. He is the one who has saved us and given us access to the Father. There is no other name by which we may be saved.
Acts 4:12 (WEB) says,
There is salvation in none other, for neither is there any other name under heaven, that is given among men, through which we must be saved!
