Prayer request for a friend
Pat

Posted on 06/24/2008 12:53:19 PM PDT by SwinneySwitch

Leanna has been in the hospital for a week with pain and fever. So far all the blood tests have come back negative ruling out many, many possibilities. The tests that were sent to the CDC in Atlanta should have results today/tomorrow. At this point, the doctors figure she has a viral infection (NOT expected to be contagious) that may have possibly been contracted during her vacation abroad(to Italy, Greece & Turkey). The doctors think that the infection will have to work its way out over a period of time from exposure. She seemed just slightly better over the weekend.

Leanna is having another test done today to rule out any infection in the heart valves. Spoke with her for a short time this morning & she still sounded pretty bad. Please continue to remember her in your prayers.

May your friend find comfort and encouragement in this Healing Prayer, first said by a beloved husband for his wife, Patsy. May Leanna, like Patsy, be restored to the fullness of health, to the Glory of His Name.

HEALING CONFESSION

Heavenly Father, I thank You for Your Living Word. You said that Your Word is Life to those who find it and medicine to all their flesh. Today, by my confession, I apply Your Word to our body by giving voice to it. You said in Psalm 139:14 that we are fearfully and wonderfully made and that Your works are marvelous. I declare that You made us and we are a marvelous creation.

I speak to sickness and disease today and proclaim that according to Philippians 2:10 that they must bow down to the mighty name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Every name in Heaven, on earth, and under the earth bows its knee to Jesus’ name.

I speak to our body today and declare that we have authority over it. I command it to receive the Word of God. Matthew 8:17 proclaims that Jesus bore our sickness and took our infirmities. Heavenly Father, I thank you that the same Spirit that raised Jesus from the dead dwells in us and makes alive our mortal body.

I speak to our immune system and command it to line up with the Word of God. Our immune system will destroy sickness and disease in our body and perform its job, for this is what You created it to do. I thank you, Father, that every cell in our body responds to Your Word. Your Word permeates our body from the top of our head to the bottom of our feet. I confess that the Word of God is being made flesh in us. Psalm 103:3 declares that You, Father, forgave all our iniquities and healed all our diseases. Father, that is Your confession and I make it my confession, also. We don't judge by the sight of our eyes; we judge by Your Living Word. It is Your Word that lives in us and brings health and healing to every part of our body.

Heavenly Father, I rejoice at Your promise of divine health. You said it and I believe it. Today I declare that we will see Your promise of healing manifest in our body.

Healing is ours because Jesus paid the price two thousand years ago. God so loved us that He sent His Son to die on the cross so that we could experience life on God's terms. His abundant life is manifesting in us. Make us whole ~ body, soul, and spirit. Amen ...

Psalm 118:17-18 ~ “I shall not die, but I shall live, and recount the deeds of the Lord. The Lord has chastened me sorely, but he has not given me over to death.”

Update:

Leanna just called. They finally diagnosed her with 2 different viral infections...I didn’t catch the names clearly...will advise later. The doctor said she is NOT contagious & they are sending her home from the hospital today. She will be permitted to work as much as her strength will allow till the viruses work their way out. Leanna still feels pretty bad, but a little better each day than previously. Please continue to pray for her returned strength as she is SO done with this crud & wants to get back to work. She’s already been working on an allocation spreadsheet with L. via the internet.

P.

Update:

Leanna went to work this afternoon for 1/2 day. PTL! Has CMV and EBV viruses. Doctors say that it may take 6 to 8 weeks to work through it. She jokes about having jungle fever, but could have caught it on the plane or here in Texas.
