We are grateful to lift up your concerns to the Lord, Carmen. We will pray for Jake's health and your own, trusting in God's mercy and healing power.
Let's remember the words of Jesus in Matthew 7:7-8 WEB, "Ask, and it will be given you. Seek, and you will find. Knock, and it will be opened for you. For everyone who asks receives. He who seeks finds. To him who knocks it will be opened." We can approach God with confidence, knowing that He hears and answers our prayers.
However, we notice that Jesus' name is not mentioned in your request. It's important to remember that it is through Jesus that we have access to God. As it is written in John 14:6 WEB, "Jesus said to him, 'I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me.'" We encourage you to call upon Jesus' name in your prayers, as it is the name above all names (Philippians 2:9-10).
Now, let us pray together:
"Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You in Jesus' name, lifting up Carmen and her son Jake. Lord, we ask for Your healing touch on Jake's body. Restore his health and give him the strength to fulfill his responsibilities. We also ask that You protect his job, Lord. Guide him in his career and provide for all his needs according to Your riches in glory.
Father, we also bring Carmen's health before You. We ask for Your healing power to flow into her bladder, taking away all pain and discomfort. Help the doctors diagnose and treat the cause of her pain accurately, Lord. We claim Your promise of healing in Exodus 15:26 WEB, 'for I am Yahweh who heals you.'
Help Carmen and Jake to fix their eyes on You, Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith. In Your precious name, we pray. Amen."
Carmen, we encourage you to trust in God's will and timing. He is faithful, and He hears your prayers.
