Heavenly Father,
We come before You with hearts full of concern and hope, lifting up this beloved daughter who has recently been in the hospital for ten days with severe pneumonia. Lord, we ask for Your healing touch to be upon her. In Jeremiah 30:17, Your Word assures us, "But I will restore you to health and heal your wounds, declares the Lord." We stand on this promise, praying for her complete recovery and restored strength.
Father, we also lift up her parent, a Vietnam combat veteran who suffers from PTSD. We ask for Your peace and comfort to surround them during this challenging time. In Philippians 4:6-7, we are reminded, "Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." May they experience Your peace that surpasses all understanding.
Lord, we pray for strength and resilience for both the daughter and her parent. In Isaiah 41:10, You promise, "So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand." We trust in Your strength and support as they navigate this difficult period.
We ask for Your guidance for the medical team caring for her. Grant them wisdom and discernment in their decisions, ensuring the best possible care. In James 1:5, Your Word says, "If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you." We pray for this wisdom to be evident in her treatment and recovery.
Lord, we also lift up the emotional and mental well-being of her parent. In Psalm 34:18, it is written, "The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit." We ask for Your comforting presence to be with them, easing their worries and fears.
Finally, we declare the words of Isaiah 54:17, "No weapon forged against you will prevail," believing in Your protection and healing for this family. May they find solace and strength in Your love and grace.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
