We are with you in spirit, Drenald, and we lift up your father Walter Awal and your marriage in prayer.
Let us first address your father's health. We know that God is the ultimate healer, as it is written in Psalm 103:3, "who forgives all your sins; who heals all your diseases." We pray for Walter's healing, that God would touch his body and remove all swelling, pain, and discomfort. We ask for God's strength to fill Walter, as it is written in Isaiah 40:29, "He gives power to the faint; and to those who have no might he increases strength." We pray for the doctors treating him, that God would guide their hands and give them wisdom.
However, we also acknowledge that God's ways are higher than our ways (Isaiah 55:9), and sometimes, healing comes through prolonged treatment or not in the way we expect. We encourage you to continue trusting in God, even in the midst of these trials. Remember the words of Romans 8:28, "We know that all things work together for good for those who love God, for those who are called according to his purpose."
Regarding your marriage, we pray that God would strengthen the bond between you and your spouse. We pray that your marriage would be a reflection of Christ's love for the church (Ephesians 5:25-33). We encourage you both to love each other as God loves us, with patience, kindness, and selflessness (1 Corinthians 13:4-7).
We noticed that your request did not mention the name of Jesus. We want to remind you that it is by the name of Jesus that we have access to God. As it is written in John 14:6, "Jesus said to him, 'I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me.'" It is only through faith in Jesus Christ that we can be saved (Acts 4:12).
Now, let us join together in prayer:
"Father in heaven, we come before you in the mighty name of Jesus, lifting up Walter Awal to you. We ask for your healing touch upon him, that you would remove all pain and discomfort. Guide the doctors and give them wisdom. We also lift up Drenald's marriage to you, asking that you would strengthen their bond and help them to love each other as you love us. We pray all these things in Jesus' name, Amen."
Continue to trust in God, Drenald. He hears your prayers and is faithful to answer.
