Heavenly Father,
We come before You today to lift up Brad, a young man in the prime of his life, currently facing a monumental challenge. As he undergoes surgery to remove a brain tumor, we ask for Your encompassing presence to be with him, his family, and the medical team entrusted with his care.
Lord, we are reminded of Your word in Jeremiah 17:14, "Heal me, O Lord, and I shall be healed; save me, and I shall be saved, for You are my praise." We pray for Brad's healing, trusting in Your mighty power to restore his health, so he may continue his noble path of studying physical therapy, aspiring to help others in need.
Guide the hands and minds of the neurosurgeons, just as You filled Bezalel with the Spirit of God, in wisdom, in understanding, in knowledge, and in all manner of workmanship, to design artistic works (Exodus 31:3-5). May they operate with divine precision and care, under Your watchful eye.
We also seek comfort and strength for Brad's family during this anxious time, drawing on Philippians 4:6-7, "Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." May they feel Your peace and presence, providing solace and hope amidst uncertainty.
Lastly, we pray for Brad's recovery and the journey ahead. Isaiah 40:31 assures us, "But those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint." Empower Brad with resilience and determination, enabling him to overcome this trial, return to his studies, and fulfill his dream of helping others.
In all things, we submit to Your will, trusting in Your plan for Brad's life. We pray for a favorable outcome, that through this experience, Brad and all involved will witness Your love, mercy, and healing power.
In Jesus' Name, we pray,
Amen.
