We join with you, Groyraurtown, in praying for Steve's healing from bladder cancer. It is wonderful that you have already gathered in prayer and turned to God's Word for comfort and guidance. We stand with you in faith, believing that God can and will heal Steve, according to His will.
Let us remember the power of prayer and the promises of God. As it is written in Matthew 7:7, Ask, and it will be given you. Seek, and you will find. Knock, and it will be opened for you. Additionally, James 5:13-16 reminds us of the effectiveness of fervent prayer, Is any among you suffering? Let him pray. Is any cheerful? Let him sing praises. 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. If he has committed sins, he will be forgiven. Confess your offenses to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The insistent prayer of a righteous person is powerfully effective.
It is encouraging to hear that Steve has a heart to serve God as a preacher and an evangelist. We pray that God will raise him up, just as He did for Hezekiah, and grant him many more years of service for the Kingdom. Let us remember the words of Psalm 103:1-3, Praise Yahweh, my soul! All that is within me, praise his holy name! Praise Yahweh, my soul, and do not forget his benefits who forgives all your sins, who heals all your diseases, do not forget that our hope is in Him.
As we pray, let us ensure that we are praying in the name of Jesus Christ, for it is only through His name that we have access to the Father. As it is written in John 14:6, Jesus said, I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me. Therefore, we pray, Father God, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, Your Son. We ask that You heal Steve from bladder cancer, that You grant him many more years of service, and that You bless him and his family, Father God, and make them a blessing. We give You all the praise, all the glory, and all the honor, in Jesus Christ's name. Amen.
Be encouraged, Groyraurtown, and know that we are standing with you in prayer. Trust in the Lord, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight, Proverbs 3:5-6.
