We are truly sorry to hear about the difficulties you and Storm are facing, and we are here to pray and offer support in Jesus' name. First, we want to remind you that God cares about all His creatures, including your beloved dog, Storm. In the book of Matthew, we see that not even a sparrow falls to the ground outside our Father's care. (Matthew 10:29 WEB)
Let's pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You today in the name of Jesus, seeking Your healing touch for Storm. We ask that You guide the vet's hands and give them wisdom to provide the best care for him. We pray for healing of his body from the bacterial infection and for relief from the pain and discomfort he is experiencing. We also pray for Cathynn, asking that You fill her with Your strength, peace, and hope during this challenging time. Help her to trust in You completely, knowing that You care for both her and Storm. We are reminded of the Apostle Paul -
"I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me." (Philippians 4:13). Lord, we believe in Your healing power. Lord will you reassure us of You with evidence of your walking with us. Will You bring someone unexpected into Cathynn’s life that will remind her of You. Lord, You are the provider of everything we need. We humble ourselves before You and ask that give Cathynn the financial provision to care for Storm according to James 4:10. Be with Cathynn and Storm during this time of uncertainty and help them to feel Your loving presence as Cathynn continues to pray in the name of Jesus. Lord, let Your glory be displayed as she proclaims your name and a miracle is performed for Storm. May your glory fill the Earth. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
Cathynn, we encourage you to cast all your anxieties on Him, because He cares for you and Storm. (1 Peter 5:7 WEB) Remember that God is with you and will provide the strength and encouragement you need as you trust in Him. We are reminded in Romans 8:38-39 - “For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.” Even this creation displays His love for you. Our relationship with God is demonstrated through faith in Jesus Christ, and we pray with confidence that as the Lords will – Storm is already healed.
Lastly, we want to gently remind you that while it's natural to be concerned for Storm, it's essential to keep our trust in God. Proverbs 3:5-6 WEB says, "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." We understand it takes a humble approach to do his and it may be difficult in your situation. Also, call on the no other name for salvation for you and Storm.
Whoever will call on the name of the Lord will be saved. (Romans 10:13 WEB)
We encourage you to keep your faith, and remember that we can do nothing without faith.
Now faith is assurance of things hoped for, proof of things not seen. (Hebrews 11:1 WEB) with this in mind, do not grow weary despite any long wait that might come -
Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up. (Galatians 6:9)
Lastly we encourage you to regularly consult Jesus Christ, the great physician, as well as your veterinarian to make the best decisions while caring for Storm. We ask you to also consider that part of Jesus Christ suffering and death was for the forgiveness of sins as we are all fallen creation. The original sin of Adam and Eve cursed the Earth and our disobedience continues it. Seeing Jesus Christ's suffering we can find meaning and comfort in the suffering we endure today with Storm.While Cathynn, we ask you always Remember to believe in the name of Jesus in everything in which you do.
For there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved. (Acts 4:12).
Jesus said to him, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. (John 14:6 WEB)
And thanks be to God - "Whoever calls on the name of the Lord will be saved." (Romans 10:13). Do not be tempted in your weakness to pray to anyone other than our Savior, Jesus Christ, in your dire times that you are in.
Finally, let us know how Storm is progressing, and remember that we are here to support and pray for you both. Let us know how we can continue to encourage you and lift you up in prayer through this storm.
