Thank you, Sunil, for reaching out and submitting your prayer request. We appreciate your faith in the power of prayer and your trust in Jesus to bring you the help you seek.. Let us first focus on the precious name of Jesus that was mentioned as we come to God for your needs. Jesus came and died on the cross for our sins, was buried, and rose the third day. "In whom we have boldness and access with confidence through faith in him" Ephesians 3:12 WEB. That means you both need to first make sure of your own salvation and have believed that "If you will confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus, and believe in your heart that God has raised him from the dead, you will be saved." Jesus is the one and only way to eternal life with God.
Moving on, we stand with you Sunil in Jesus name praying for complete recovery from your coughs and colds that both you and your wife Pratibha are going through this time. As per your request Sunil we want to remind you it is only through your own faith in God's word you will see the physical response from the LORD for the healing to happen. If necessary consider reading James chapter 5 and read verses 13-15, "13 Is any among you suffering? Let him pray. Is any cheerful? Let him sing praises. 14 Is any among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the assembly, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord, 15 and the prayer of faith will save him who is sick, and the Lord will raise him up. If he has committed sins, he will be forgiven." Therefore, seek healing by faith. Believing and accepting God's will both good and bad knowing that "And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to his purpose." Romans 8:28 WEB. Accept this time to maybe pray and learn to grow closer to Him together. Be encouraging one another knowing with thanksgiving of this promise to faithful servants, "That he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, that you may be strengthened with power through his Spirit in the inner man; 17 that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith" from Ephesians 3:16 WEB.
Both you and Pratibha pray and put your trust in Jesus knowing by His stripes both of you are already healed. A lot of times these type sicknesses are there because of worry or doubts about something else and your body takes advantage of your distress. Don't give the devil control. Know that healing of body and mind was made possible to believers by God because Jesus took on our stripes before he went to the cross. The original intent of healing of the soul (salvation) was also meant to include our body, not just soul. But, you must believe. When healing doesn't happen then it means either our lack of faith in Jesus or this is a time of tribulation for correction. God has a way of getting our attention so be open to it and let Him change you. Try to learn the truth so your situation can be more clear. Take "Let us search and try our ways, and turn again to Yahweh" from Lamentations 3:40 WEB. Let's join in prayer to God almighty for His purpose.
Lord Jesus, you know Sunil and Pratibha's need and understand the pain they are going through with these illnesses. Have mercy on them. Provide them relief, healing, and protection. We believe your words Lord in Mark 10:27 WEB that "With men it is impossible, but not with God, for all things are possible with God." So if you can feed the thousands of people with 2 fish and 5 loaves of bread, you can definitely take away a simple illness as well if you choose. Help them to get rid of these physical problems by seeking your face. Give them grace, patience, and strength to endure, encouraging them to bring their burdens and rest in you for peace and healing. Help Sunil and Pratibha to find joy in the Lord and give thanks as per First Thessalonians 5:18 "in everything give thanks, for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus toward you". Help them get to know you more deeply and obey your purpose for their lives. They should obey Your ways and be humble by focusing on knowing more about You, for You to glorify Yourself through their lives. Use this time to change and encourage others through Sunil and Pratibha in how they are suffering today. We believe by the stripes Jesus bore before he was punished on the cross we can have healing of our physical bodies as well. Your Word says in Proverbs 4:20 WEB "My son, attend to my words. Turn your ear to my sayings." Be more dependant on Your Words Sunil and Pratibha. Have both you and Pratibha meditate in and consume His word in the spirit and by constant bible reading, study, prayer, and fellowship to correct yourself so your wills may align with that of Gods and praise Him. Bless both Sunil and Pratibha knowing healing was made possible by Your means Jesus.
