Dear all,
David will be admitted to SGH this Thur for a minor surgery to remove a small growth on his right foot. The growth is about the size of a small fishball, near his ankle. Please pray:
1. that growth is just some benign tissues
2. successful operation without any complications, wisdom & skills of the team performing the op
3. quick recovery from general anesthesia
4. protection from all kinds of infections, esp H1N1 during his stay in the hospital (understand it should just be a 2 day 1 night stay)
5. peace and faith to trust God that David is in His good hands and will be safe and well.
We were blessed last Sunday to sit under the teaching of Pastor Benny Ho as he brought God's word to us during church service yesterday. The topic was "The position we pray from". It is important to know that we have the authority and the Holy Spirit can help us activate that authority to take back from the enemy everything he has stolen - health, relationships, possessions, joy, hope, effective service etc.
It is so powerful to truly understand:
- Luke 10:19
"I have given you authority to trample on snakes and scorpions and to overcome all the power of the enemy; nothing will harm you."
and
- Ephesians 2:4-6
"But because of his great love for us, God, who is rich in mercy, made us alive with Christ even when we were dead in transgressions—it is by grace you have been saved. And God raised us up with Christ and seated us with him in the heavenly realms in Christ Jesus".
Let us pray with renewed faith for David and other pressing issues we may have in the position of authority that our Father's will be done and that each of us will emerge the "Victor" and "Overcomer" we were called to be.
Please also pray for my god-mother who is hospitalised with suspected pneumonia, headache, giddiness and breathlessness. Initial diagnosis is not clear and suspected one of her lungs could be harden. Please pray for healing and restoration for her and for another friend who has gone through numerous rounds of chemotherapy to treat her tongue cancer. By faith we declare:
"...the Spirit of God lives in you... And if Christ is in you, your body is dead because of sin, yet your spirit is alive because of righteousness. And if the Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead is living in you, he who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through his Spirit, who lives in you." Romans 8:9-11
Thanks & God bless,
