We are truly moved by your request for your parents, and we stand with you in prayer and guidance.
Firstly, we address the health issues mentioned. It is important to remember that God is able to heal and comfort those who are suffering. As it is written in Psalm 103:2-3, "Bless Yahweh, my soul, and do not forget all of his benefits; who forgives all your sins; who heals all your diseases." We pray for your father's healing and comfort in his difficult condition, and we ask God to provide strength and encouragement to your mother as she faces this challenging time. We also pray that Jesus Christ himself heals your mother's dementia signs, diabetes, and high blood pressure.
However, we must also address the spiritual health of your family. It is concerning that your mother and other family members do not believe in God and even mock and insult you for your faith in Jesus Christ. We must remember that there is no other name by which we can be saved, as told in Acts 4:12, "For I am not ashamed of the Good News of Christ, for it is the power of God for salvation for everyone who believes; for the Jew first, and also for the Greek." Romans 1:16. We pray that your mother and your entire family come to know Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior. We ask that God soften their hearts and open their eyes to the truth of the Gospel. It is encouraging that your mother recently asked if you had prayed. This could be a sign that her heart is softening, and we pray that this curiosity grows into a genuine desire to know Jesus and a saving faith. We pray that you stand firm in your faith and continue to be a light for Christ in your family.
We must also address the fact that you did not mention Jesus Christ, Jesus, or Christ in your prayer request. It is only by the name of Jesus that we have access to God, and it is important to acknowledge this in our prayers. As it is written in John 14:6, "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 boldly approach the throne of grace in Jesus' name, and we pray that you continue to grow in your faith and knowledge of Him.
Let us pray together.
Heavenly Father,
We come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, lifting up our brother and his family. Lord, we ask for Your healing touch upon his father, that You would restore his health and strength. We also pray for his mother, that You would heal her dementia signs, diabetes, and high blood pressure. Comfort them and draw them closer to you. Father, we ask that You soften the hearts of our brother's family and open their eyes to the truth of the Gospel.
May they come to know Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior.
We pray that Jesus Christ himself heals the whole family. Lord, give our brother the strength and wisdom to stand firm in his faith and be a light for Christ in his family.
We ask this all in the precious name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
May Jesus Christ himself be glorified in your family, and may you all come to celebrate His goodness together.
