Prayer request
🧘Mental/Physical Health 🏋🏼♂️
My son's father-in-law is undergoing open heart surgery right now. I ask for prayers for a safe and successful operation, with no complications. (he had a heart attack about a week ago. He is less than 60 with no prior heart condition, and his blood work appeared good. He had covid two years ago. I personally believe that both the covid shots, and covid itself, has produced coronary problems for many people.)
I will post a follow-up message later today (operation is going to be at least 5 hours).
Thank you all!
Dear Lord, let the surgeons be extensions of your healing hands to bring this beloved father-in-law back to health & healing, and to the glory of your Holy name. Strengthen him & his loved ones with your presence, draw them to salvation through Christ Jesus, and fill them with your Spirit and your peace. I ask this in Jesus' Mighty name, Amen.
Your prayers are so beautiful.
❤️ I tried to reply to you, but it ended up as a separate post, so I'm moving it here. Here's what I said: My Pastor used the phrase "extension of your healing hands" in a prayer once and that image struck me as a perfect representation of what we ask for in prayers of healing. It is Jesus touching the blind man's eyes, but this time we are asking him to touch this man's heart. God also comforts us so that we may comfort others. I have been the family member waiting for a loved one's heart surgery to be completed. My heart is with this family. May they see God is with them. https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=2+Corinthians+1%3A3-4&version=ESV
Thank you so much for this; so timely and meaningful for me right now.
Amen.
AMEN
Amen.
Amen!
