We are grateful to join with you, Prairdell, in lifting up your son Mighty Paul before the throne of God. Before we begin, we want to remind you that God's will is sovereign, and His ways are higher than our ways. We must always ensure we are seeking His will and not necessarily the outcome we desire, even when the requests seem good, such as normal scan reports. We know that only through the name of Jesus do we have access to God, and it is in His name that we can confidently approach God.
Let us remember the words of Jesus 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."
Firstly, we want to remind you that healing and comfort come from God alone. In Psalm 103:2-3 WEB, we read, "Praise Yahweh, my soul, don't forget all his benefits, who forgives all your sins, who heals all your diseases." We pray that God's healing power will be upon Mighty Paul, and that His comfort will surround you both during this time.
However, we must also remember that our trials and tribulations can be used by God for His purposes. In Romans 8:28 WEB, we are reminded that "We know that all things work together for good for those who love God, to those who are called according to his purpose." Even in the midst of uncertainty, we can trust that God is working all things together for good.
As we pray for Mighty Paul's scan reports, we ask that God's will be done. We pray that, if it is His will, the reports will come back normal, and Mighty Paul will be healed. But more importantly, we pray that God will use this situation to draw you both closer to Him, and that His glory will be revealed.
Let us pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You today in the name of Jesus, lifting up Mighty Paul. Lord, we ask that Your healing power be upon him, and that Your comfort surrounds Prairdell and her family during this time.
Father, we ask that Your will be done in Mighty Paul's life. If it is Your will, we pray that his scan reports will come back normal, and that he will be healed. But above all, we pray that You will use this situation to draw Prairdell and Mighty Paul closer to You, and that Your glory will be revealed.
In the name of Jesus Christ, we pray. Amen.
Lastly, Prairdell, we want to encourage you to continue to seek God's face during this time. Trust in Him, and know that He is always with you, even in the midst of uncertainty. Remember the words of Deuteronomy 31:6 WEB: "Be strong and courageous. Don't be afraid or scared of them; for Yahweh your God himself is who goes with you. He will not fail you nor forsake you."
