I saw this on the nightly news. Before his face began turning to liquid, Jake was an adorable, smiling, ball-playing six-year-old that anyone would love as a son or grandson. His parents are strong, God-honoring people who are desperate for prayers. Please help!

Time to round up the prayer warriors. Please help!
When I saw this boy on tv tonight, something in his smile reminded me of Logan. Both kids are well-loved, confident, smart-looking, bright-eyed, happy boys....
Jake's face will never be the same, of course, and I'm worried about his eyes, ears, tongue -- and his life.
Necrotizing faciitis crops up here in the Pacific Northwest every year. Very dangerous! But we've prayed some freeper friends through it before and hopefully, we can help Jake too.

A fast-moving infection, usually a very nasty kind of streptococcus but sometimes caused by other bacteria. This is
not one of those that you want to look up on the internet. This is a nasty little bug, but the kid has a good chance now that he's in the hospital.
I hope everything comes out alright.

I've got some crap like this eating up my face, so this boy is not alone.
Prayer is one of, if not THE most effective tool around; however, just mouthing or writing that one is praying while not attempting to would seem to border on blasphemy.
Fortunately, he is at the age where he can still see the angels and little people surrounding him, so one hopes someone can encourage him towards his healing.

May God hold Jake and his family close to Him now and give them peace and strength. May He guide those who care for Jake and restore him to health to live a long life in His service, in Jesus' name.

Heavenly Father, we return to thank You that You know the depth of agony in the hearts of Jake's parents ... were it not for You, O Lord, they would be without hope. They have placed their beloved son in Your loving hands, Merciful Father, and may it be as they pray ... that their son would be restored to the fullness of health, to the Everlasting Glory and Honor of Your Name. Fill Jake's medical team with the greatest wisdom, that they would be instruments of Your healing. Let faith, hope, and encouragement surround this little one and his family, for in Your hand is the life of every living thing, and the breath of all mankind. Job 12:10. In the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ we pray, Amen ...

Heartfelt prayers have just been lifted up. A little boy here had this a few years back - ate up his leg - he was skateboarding and fell.
Praises to our Heavenly King and the ultimate Healer of all for HE has done mighty things and I have prayed that he will do a mighty healing on little Jake.

Prayers from Michigan. What a horrible thing for this family. God, please place Your Healing Hands on this young boy and rid his body of this devestating affliction. Give Your strength and grace to his family so that they may endure whatever is to come.
