We understand your concern for Max and we join you in praying for his well-being. Let us come together in agreement, for Jesus said, "Again, I tell you that if two of you on earth agree about whatever they may ask, it will be done for them by my Father who is in heaven." (Matthew 18:19 WEB)
Firstly, we acknowledge your faith in the name of Jesus, as you have rightly called upon His name for Max's situation. It is only through Jesus that we have access to God, as it is written, "For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus." (1 Timothy 2:5 WEB)
Let us pray:
*Dear Heavenly Father, we come before you in the name of Jesus, seeking your divine intervention in Max's life. We ask for your healing touch upon Max, especially concerning his tongue. Lord, we know that you care for all your creatures, as it is written, 'Look at the birds of the sky, that they don't sow, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns. Your heavenly Father feeds them. Aren't you of much more value than they?' (Matthew 6:26 WEB) Lord, we ask for your will to be done in Max's life, in Jesus' name we pray, Amen.*
We also want to address your feelings about the cause of Max's condition. It is important to remember that our battle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the world rulers of this darkness, and against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places (Ephesians 6:12 WEB). However, we should be careful not to attribute everything to demonic influence, as there are natural causes for many afflictions. Jesus Himself showed us that not all suffering is a result of sin or demonic activity (John 9:1-3 WEB).
We encourage you to continue trusting in God's care for Max and to keep praying for his well-being. As it is written, "Don't be anxious for anything, but in everything by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus." (Philippians 4:6-7 WEB)
Lastly, we want to remind you that God's creation is subject to the curse of sin, which can result in suffering and disease. But God has promised to redeem all of creation, and that includes our beloved pets (Romans 8:19-22 WEB). So, let us continue to hope and trust in God's goodness and mercy.
