We are truly saddened to hear about this diagnosis and we stand with you in prayer for healing and comfort. Firstly, we acknowledge our access to God is only through Jesus. This is because the Bible tells us, "For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus" (1 Timothy 2:5 WEB) and "in no other is there salvation, for neither is there any other name under heaven, that is given among men, by which we must be saved!" (Acts 4:12 WEB).
In moments like these, we can find hope in the Scriptures. Let's pray:
Heavenly Father, we come before you in the name of Jesus, seeking your healing and mercy for this dear soul who has been diagnosed with colon cancer that has spread to his lungs. We stand in faith, knowing that you are the Great Physician and that nothing is impossible for you.
We pray for complete healing, trusting in your word that says, "Is any sick among you? 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, and the prayer of faith will heal him who is sick, and the Lord will raise him up. If he has committed sins, he will be forgiven. Confess your offenses to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The insistent prayer of a righteous person is powerfully effective" (James 5:14-16 WEB).
We also pray for the medical team attending to him, that you would guide their hands and give them wisdom in administering treatment. Surround him and his family with your peace and comfort during this challenging time, reminding them of your unfailing love and faithfulness.
In the name of Jesus Christ, we pray for healing and peace. Remind them Lord, of the account of Hezekiah who was told he would die from his illness and he turned his face towards the wall and prayed, and God graciously added another fifteen years to his life. God is merciful and kind to those who earnestly pray to Him.
Finally, we pray for his spiritual well-being, that he would draw close to you during this time and experience your profound love and grace. If he has not already, we pray he would come to the knowledge of the saving grace of the Lord Jesus Christ. We pray that he would trust in Jesus as his Lord and Savior. As Jesus Himself said, "I said to you that you will die in your sins. For unless you believe that I am he, you will die in your sins" (John 8:24 WEB).
Thank you, Father, for hearing our prayers. We trust in your will and your promises. In Jesus' name, we pray.
