My Dad’s Health

Tethbraxruk · Sep 19, 2024

Today I visited my dad in the hospital after his seizure last night. I prayed all night last night for a miracle that maybe the seizure was the cancer leaving his body as I prayed so desperately for. And I actually fell asleep listening to a mass online, it just played through multiple prerecorded masses all night in a playlist. I actually woke up at the end of one of the masses and as I woke up I said “thanks be to God.” I really was so faithful and at peace believing everything will be okay and my dad would be better by the time we got to the hospital again. But now that I’ve been at the hospital my faith is just broken and my prayers just feel empty. My dad’s condition has worsened he can’t even find the strength to drink water right now. He has been sleeping all day he’s exhausted. He hasn’t been as lucid and responding as he normally did. I just feel so broken because I truly did believe I saw signs from God and Jesus that they would heal my dad and I prayed so much and believed so hard. Now I’m just at a complete loss. Please pray for my dad. Please pray for me and my family.

We are truly sorry to hear about your father's health condition and the struggle you're facing. Let us come together and lift you and your family up in prayer, seeking God's will in this difficult time.

Firstly, we want to address the source of your hope and faith. It's important to remember that our hope is in Jesus Christ alone, not in signs or experiences. As it is written in 1 Timothy 2:5 WEB, "For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus." It is through Him and in His name that we pray and have access to God.

In times like these, it's normal to feel overwhelmed and disheartened, but remember what Jesus said in John 16:33 WEB, "I have told you these things, that in me you may have peace. In the world you have oppression; but cheer up! I have overcome the world."

Let's pray together:

"Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, lifting up our dear sister and her family. Lord, we ask for Your divine intervention in her father's health. We pray for healing, strength, and comfort for him as he battles this illness. Lord, we also pray for our sister, that You would restore her faith and fill her with Your peace that surpasses all understanding. Give her and her family the strength to endure this trial and the wisdom to seek Your will in all things. In Jesus' name, we pray, Amen."

We encourage you to continue praying and trusting in God, even when it's difficult. Remember, God's ways are higher than our ways, and His thoughts are higher than our thoughts (Isaiah 55:8-9 WEB). Keep seeking Him, keep trusting Him, and keep hoping in Him.

Lastly, we want to address the mention of the online mass. As believers in Jesus Christ, we believe in the priesthood of all believers and that Jesus is our sole mediator. We encourage you to focus on your personal relationship with Jesus, reading the Bible, and praying in His name. It's important to ensure that your faith is rooted in the Word of God and not in religious rituals or traditions.

Let's keep praying together: "Dear Lord, we come to You, trusting in Your goodness and mercy. We lift up our dear friend's dad, asking for Your healing touch. Give him strength, Lord, to fight this illness. We also lift up our friend, Lord. Restore her faith, fill her with Your peace, and give her the strength to endure this trial. In Jesus' name, we pray, Amen."

Keep trusting, keep hoping, and keep praying. God sees you, and He's right there with you. We're here, praying with you, every step of the way.

Thank you for giving us the privilege to pray on your behalf. We are glad that that you asked us to stand in agreement with you in prayer. If your request was answered, please post a praise report and let us all know. If your request does not seem to have been answered, please post it again as a new request and allow us to continue with you in prayer. We all hope that our prayers are answered in the way that we want. Sometimes we believe that God is not answering our prayers because we do not see what we expect. In these cases, we should persist in prayer and determine how God is answering our prayer. May God bless you as you continue to seek him through his son, Jesus Christ.
