PLEASE PRAY: My very dear friend Lori Campbell Sillmann needs prayers as she is going through Chemo and having a very very hard time with it. Please take a minute to say a prayer for her. This woman means the world to me and so many others. She's got one of the most beautiful hearts I've ever known. Let's lift her up. Thank you
I am so sorry to hear of your friend's Cancer diagnoses and ordeal. Please understand that there is a reason for EVERYTHING that God allows and does in our lives and what we may consider as bad or evil may not be what we think it is. For example, when Jesus was persecuted and crucified (for our sins) we thought it was a bad and unjust thing, but he nor did God thought that is was, because one man suffered and died for the entire past, present and future human race sins (i.e., those who repented or repents of their sins that is) who now have a chance to obtain "Eternal Life" via Salvation because of Jesus' sacrifice on man's behalf.
My point is, that not all sickness, pain, suffering, and death is a bad thing, IF we understand it the way Jesus, the Bible and God understands it. So, there may be many reasons for your friend's Cancer and suffering, which you, Lori, others, nor I understand right now.
So, my advice and instructions to you and Lori is this...
- READ the book of Job (the first few chapters and then the last chapter; or read the entire book of Job) and learn of Job's troubles, sufferings, pain, losses and faith, so that you and Lori may be encouraged and understand some things. And Google other Bible verses or stories of many other people in the Bible who have suffered painful illnesses, had many problems and or died for one reason or another. This will help you to understand some things about God and why and how He allows people to experience misfortunes in their lives.
- PRAY that God's will be done for Lori (whatever God's will may be for her even if it means death as a result of her illness).
- PRAISE & THANK God often (always) for His help, blessings, Mercy, Grace, and even for Lori's sickness and situation (even though you or Lori and even others may not understand it, just do it from a sincere heart of faith in God).
- ACCEPT whatever God allows for Lori for however long He wants Lori to experience what she is going through.
- Ask Lori to pray for other sick people within or outside the hospital that she is aware of.
- WAIT on God to show you His plan and will for Lori and her sickness or situation. He will, if you ask and or believe He will.
You see, sometimes God uses sickness to humble us; to get our attention; to draw us closer to Him; to discipline or punish us for our sins; to test us; to be a Light and witness to others suffering that they might come to trust and turn to God in a relationship of faith, love and even Salvation; to glorify God by our positive attitude of the situation, sickness and faith in Him while we are suffering. And, sometimes it's God's way to say it's time for you to leave the world via death (which we will all have to succumb to eventually sooner or later and somehow). This as you and Lori already knows is a part of life's cycle (of birth; life and death).
That said, DON'T lose faith or give-up on God, because He is right there with you and Lori 24/7-365 and He knows EVERYTHING that's going on with you and Lori. Just be patient and wait on God to accomplish His will, plan and purpose in Lori's life, which He definitely has for her, you and EVERYONE (whose good; bad; saved; lost; evil; sinful; etc.). Trust me, God knows what He is doing and what's best for Lori and every life on planet earth and He knows how and when to fix, heal, save, punish, destroy, repair, etc. all that needs it of Him. Amen. HalleluYah!
So, I pray for and with you for your dear friend Lori. Please tell her to confess her sins to God, ask Him to forgive her sins, and repent of all her sins, if any that's unconfessed or recently committed (she must stop doing or committing them) if she has any active sins in her thoughts and life. Also, take some "Olive Oil" (a small amount) into the palm of your hands and place it on Lori's head, or on or near the area where the Cancer is located (if possible) and...
PRAY and believe this prayer with FAITH in God...
Great and Almighty Heavenly Father and God Yahweh (or Jehovah); the only true living God, Healer, Lord, Savior, etc. (IF He is such to you and or Lori and you believe this prayer; if not, then pray what you believe in your heart to God). or continue praying, ...
I praise and thank you for all of your blessings and help you have given to me. I appreciate them all, including your forgiveness of my (and or Lori's) sins, which is active in my and or Lori's life right. Please forgive my (or our) sins. Thank you. And, I humbly ask for your blessings upon Lori right now that you would heal her body of the Cancer within her completely; or help her to understand and endure her situation, pain and suffering that you are allowing her to experience in her life and body as a result of her Cancer and or sins (you willing), so that she (and or I and others) may be a witness to others of your great power, love, grace, compassion, and mercy which you show to all who turn to you for help. And, whether you answer my and or others prayers for Lori with Yes or No. I ask that your will be done as you know best for Lori. And, I thank you, praise you, and love you merciful and loving God (Yahweh-Hebrew or Jehovah-English). In Jesus' name I ask and pray that "Your Will Be Done" for Lori. Thank you. Amen (so be it). HalleluYah! (Praise Yahweh/Jehovah–God!).
Now, just wait on God and continue thanking and praising God as often as you desire to, and thank Him for answering your prayers for Lori and allowing His will to be done (for as long as He wants it done in sickness or in health or in life or via death). Amen. HalleluYah!
P.S.,
This prayer and advice has no expiration date and can be effectively applied to anyone's problems, sickness, disease, pain, sufferings, etc., because God ALWAYS answers prayer, which He may respond with an answer of Yes, No, Not Now, or later to you. Amen. HalleluYah!
Have faith in God. Trust Him and be patient with Him. He loves you more than you know and will ALWAYS do what's best for you and everyone. So, DON'T worry about anything, because God (your Almighty and Loving God) is on "The Great Throne in Heaven" and is ALWAYS in control of everything, including you (us). Amen. HalleluYah!
