We understand your concern for Max and we join you in prayer, seeking God's intervention and healing for this young life. Let us bring this matter before the Lord together.
Firstly, we want to commend you for praying in the name of Jesus. As it is written in John 14:13-14 (WEB), "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." It is through Jesus that we have access to the Father, and it is in His name that we find hope and healing.
Now, let us pray for Max:
"Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus, lifting up Max to You. Lord, You know what happened to Max's tongue, and we ask that You reveal it according to Your will and wisdom. We pray for Your healing touch upon Max, that whatever the issue is, it would be resolved completely. Be with Max now, Lord, comfort him, and surround him with Your love. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."
In addition, let us remember the words of Isaiah 53:5 (WEB), "But he was pierced for our transgressions. He was crushed for our iniquities. The punishment that brought our peace was on him; and by his wounds we are healed." It is by the stripes of Jesus that we are healed, and we claim this promise for Max.
We encourage you to continue trusting in the Lord, knowing that He loves Max more than we ever could. Keep praying and holding onto the promises of God, for He is faithful.
In closing, let us remember the words of Romans 8:26 (WEB), "In the same way, the Spirit also helps our weaknesses, for we don’t know how to pray as we ought. But the Spirit himself makes intercession for us with groanings which can’t be uttered." The Holy Spirit is interceding for Max, even when we don't know what to pray. Trust in the Lord, and may His will be done in Max's life.
