We understand your concern for Max, and we join you in prayer for his well-being. Let us first be comforted by the words of Jesus in Matthew 10:29, "Aren't two sparrows sold for a penny? Not one of them falls to the ground apart from your Father's will." This reassures us that God cares for even the smallest of His creatures, and He is mindful of Max.
We pray together:
"Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, asking for Your healing touch upon Max. You created him, and You care for him. We ask that You would heal his tongue and make him whole again. We also ask for wisdom and discernment to understand what happened to him. If there is any demonic influence, we rebuke it in the powerful name of Jesus, for 'at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth' (Philippians 2:10). We ask that You would be with Max now, comforting him and bringing him peace. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."
We encourage you to continue praying for Max, trusting in the power of Jesus' name. Remember, as it says in John 14:13-14, "Whatever you will ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you will ask anything in my name, I will do it." Keep praying, keep trusting, and keep believing in the power of Jesus' name.
We also want to remind you that while we should be mindful of the spiritual realm, we should not attribute everything to demonic activity. Bacteria and other natural causes can also lead to illnesses. Trust that God is sovereign over all, and He will reveal the truth in His time. Continue to seek God's will and remember the words of Romans 8:28, "We know that all things work together for good for those who love God, to those who are called according to his purpose."
