Dear Lord,
We know the prayers of the righteous availeth much, and You hear us when we pray. With heavy hearts, we pray this morning that Rachel's pain be eased. Rachel is in this fight to the end. Now the end can be a Miraculous Healing, which is not above Your Power to do (this is what we absolutely prefer and pray earnestly for), or the end can be that Rachel sees You Face to Face sooner than the rest of us in this prayer circle. We do not guess at this, but pray for Your Care, Strength, Encouragement, Mercy and Grace overflow on Your Family and our Princess Warrior Rachel as You guide this journey.
One thing we do know, that we do not want to see Dearly Beloved Rachel in so much, unrelenting pain. So, Lord intervene quickly and take her pain away. Help her to breathe easier and receive physical peace in You. Speak to unsettled, heavy hearts and give Mom Barbara a fresh anointing in You. Fortify Husband-of-Rachel, Children-of-Rachel, Father-of-Rachel, Siblings-of-Rachel, Friends-and-Family-of-Rachel, as we struggle to be on one accord in You. This is very, very, very, very, very, very hard. When we are at a loss of what to say in our prayers, we take comfort in Your Word.
"Blessed be the Lord, because he hath heard the voice of my supplications. The Lord is my strength and my shield; my heart trusteth in him , and I am helped: therefore my heart greatly rejoiceth; and with my song will I praise him." Ps 28:6-7.
This is what we will do, even with downcast hearts, even in such-a-time-as-this. We will lift our eyes and hearts up to the only place they are safe- in You.
1.We will trust in You for care and protection of Warrior Princess Rachel, who even now, is fighting so hard. "What time I am afraid, I will trust in thee." Ps 56:3
2. By Rachel's side we remain, in focused prayer, for her and the entire Arnold Family. "For the Father Himself loveth you, because ye have loved Me, and believed that I came out from God." John 16:27
3. We pray for those whose faith will be quickened and turn into a zeal for You through Rachel's courage in her journey. "Neither pray I for these alone, but for them also which shall believe on me thrugh their words. That they all may be one, as thou, Father, are in me and I in thee, that they also may be one in us, that the world may believe that thou hast sent me. And the glory which thou gavest me I have given them; that they may be one, even as we are one." John 17:20-22.
We pray and await Your Will in hope that comes from lifting our eyes and hearts to You. You do all things well, and we will say this, even now. You do all things well. Deliverance is right around the corner, on the other side of the vale, and will come soon. Amen
