We are saddened to hear about your father James' condition, Carols. Let's bring his needs before the Lord together, seeking His healing and comfort.
Firstly, we want to remind you of God's promise in Psalm 147:3, "He heals the broken in heart, and binds up their wounds." We believe that God can heal your father's swollen legs and restore his strength.
However, we also want to encourage you to seek medical advice alongside prayer. It's important to understand the cause of the swelling, as it could be a sign of something that needs medical attention. In Proverbs 3:5-6, we are reminded, "Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and don't lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight." We acknowledge God's sovereignty, but we also use the wisdom He has provided through medicine.
Let us pray:
"Father in heaven, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ. We lift up James to You, asking for Your healing touch upon his legs. Comfort him in his pain, and give him the strength to endure. Guide Carols and the family as they care for him, and lead them to the right medical care if needed. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."
Lastly, Carols, we noticed that your request did not mention the name of Jesus Christ. We want to remind you that it is through Jesus that we have access to God. As it is written in John 14:6, "Jesus said to him, โI am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me." If you have not already, we encourage you to put your trust in Jesus Christ for your salvation and for your father's healing.
