Please Pray With Me

I have a prayer that I would like to ask you to please pray with me. Please refer to James 5:13-16 which has to do with the power of prayer.

James 5:13-16 says "Are any of you suffering hardships? You should pray. Are any of you happy? You should sing praises. Are any of you sick? You should call for the elders of the church to come and pray over you, anointing you with oil in the name of the Lord. Such a prayer offered in faith will heal the sick, and the Lord will make you well. And if you have committed any sins, you will be forgiven. Confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The earnest prayer of a righteous person has great power and produces wonderful results.

Please pray with me:
Dear Lord Jesus, we ask you, the creator of the universe and the great physician, to hear our prayer for healing Andrew. We believe that you want him to regain his health, strength, and ability to feel and move and walk. And we pray that you would touch him now with your grace and power. Please forgive us of any sin and remove all obstacles from our lives which could prevent his healing. If we are angry or bitter against anyone, bring their names to our minds now so we can forgive them completely. In your mighty name, give Andrew authority over this sickness and rebuke it. We speak to this illness and command it to leave forever in the name of Jesus Christ. Lord we also recommit our lives to your service, and will glorify you as part of our testimony. Thank you for hearing our prayer. Amen

I prayed this with Andrew this morning and he wanted me to send this out. I will post again later tonight to let everyone know how his day went. God Bless. Joye

Silver back, although things are looking pretty tough right now, you are a strong man. Stay focused, be patient and listen to your doctors and your wife. Pam and I are thinking of you and will see you soon.
