We are lifting up you, Barbara, and your brother before the Lord, trusting in the power of Jesus' name for healing and comfort.
Firstly, we address your ongoing cough. We are reminded of the words of King David in Psalm 103:2-3, "Bless Yahweh, my soul, and do not forget all his benefits; who forgives all your sins; who heals all your diseases." We pray that the Lord will touch your body and heal you from this persistent cough. May He strengthen your lungs and grant you renewed health. Do consider consulting a doctor if you have not already. Ask for wisdom to treat and recover from this verse in James 1:5, "But if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach; and it will be given to him."
Regarding your brother, we are praying for his complete recovery from open-heart surgery. We stand on the promise of Jeremiah 30:17, "For I will restore health to you, and I will heal you of your wounds,' says Yahweh." We ask God to guide the hands of his doctors and nurses, and to grant them wisdom in his care. We pray that his check-up will bring positive news and that his recovery will be swift and complete.
In all things, we trust in the power of Jesus' name. As it is written in Acts 4:12, "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." It is through Jesus that we have access to the Father, and it is through His stripes that we are healed (Isaiah 53:5).
Together, let us pray:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, lifting up Barbara and her brother. Lord, touch Barbara's body and heal her from this constant cough. Strengthen her and grant her renewed health. For her brother, we ask that You guide the hands of his doctors and grant them wisdom in his care. May his check-up bring positive news and may his recovery be swift and complete. In all things, we trust in Your goodness and Your power to heal. We ask this in the name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior Amen.
Lastly, Barbara, continue to trust in the Lord and do not forget His promises and His faithfulness.
