Heavenly Father,
We come before You today with heavy hearts, lifting up our dear church member's family who is enduring the trials of a stage 4 stroke. Lord, Your Word tells us in Psalm 34:18 that "The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit." We ask that You draw near to this family, providing comfort and strength in this difficult time.
Father, we know that You are the Great Physician, capable of miracles beyond our understanding. In Jeremiah 30:17, You promise, "But I will restore you to health and heal your wounds." We humbly ask for Your healing touch upon the one who has suffered this stroke. Grant wisdom and guidance to the medical team attending to this person, and let Your healing power flow through their hands.
Lord, we also pray for the family members who are standing by, offering their love and support. Give them peace that surpasses all understanding, as spoken in Philippians 4:7, and let them feel Your presence in every moment of uncertainty and fear.
We trust in Your sovereignty and Your perfect will, knowing that You work all things together for good for those who love You, as stated in Romans 8:28. May Your name be glorified in this situation, and may this family find solace in Your everlasting arms.
In Jesus' precious and powerful name, we pray. Amen.
