I'm asking the prayer warriors on this site to please say a prayer for my nephew, Alex. He's 7 and was just diagnosed last night with MRSA. They cleaned the spot out (on his little behind) and have begun anti-biotics and are waiting for the culture to come back before they begin a more aggressive treatment.

Prayers up. What is MRSA?
Prayers for Alex.
That antibiotic resistant staph infection
It’s a nasty staph infection that patients used to get in hospitals due to poor worker hygiene. It’s been unleashed on the public recently and is spreading rapidly. It’s bad stuff. The kind of thing that’s reported to the health department.
My brother went into the hospital 5 years ago for a simple gall bladder surgery and wound up with it. Darn near killed him. It’s highly resistent to current antibiotics.
WASH YOUR HANDS!
Dear Lord, please watch over Alex and other children with this affliction. We know the evil one will use anything to try and destroy our faith in You.
We will triumph over this tragedy, as we have many times in the past.
Give Alex’s family peace and encouragement. In Jesus’ name we pray. Amen.
Almighty Lord, I pray for Your hand upon this little one in healing. In Jesus name...Amen.
Prayers up! Please keep us updated!
ALmighty Father, I ask you to cleanse Alex’s body of the infection, heal him, and make him whole. I ask this in Jesus’ Holy Name, Amen.
Praying for Alex!
O Great Merciful God,
You are the Creator of all, of the heavens and the earth, the Creator of calms as well as storms. You alone, are worthy of praise and you allow your servants the privilege to utter both our praises and our concerns before you. Happy are we who lift our voices to praise your name!
Now, O Lord of Perfect Majesty, I call unto you for your kind consideration. Not that we are deserving of your thoughtfulness, but because you are a merciful God. I humbly bring this petition before you as I know you control the winds of the heavens, that you control the paths of storms and the tides of the seas. You heal the infirmed and raise the Dead and bring strength to the weary. Now, O Lord, I plead that you consider this afflicted one, I plead with the hope you may find it pleasing to lengthen the days of your servant so that all may see you are mighty among your people, that we may stand amazed at your wonderful works, and that we may glorify your name as our Creator, our God.
I plead this cause before you, not because of any worthiness found among men, but because you are always righteous in your judgements and yet merciful in your dealings with those who call upon your most holy name. Help us, O Lord, only to seek your precious will for our lives and your servants will be satisfied.
I plead as your humble servant, hidden in Christ my Lord.
Prayers for Alex that his health is quickly restored.
Father God, we ask you to touch little Alex and heal his body. There is no healing but from You God, so in Your mercy please touch him right now and remove all infection from him. In Jesus name, Amen.
