Sending a request to please be praying for my Fijian brother Jerry Tamanisau. He has faithfully served with YWAM for over ten years and I was blessed to spend last year serving with him in Community Center with Island Breeze Brisbane. He returned to Fiji, married Amanda (an American) last January and has recently been diagnosed with cancer in the stomach. It has progressed quickly and he now needs a liver transplant, has lost weight and is unable to walk etc. As we are praying for healing and miracles we are also keeping Amanda in our prayers as she cares for him in his family's home.
After having been through some frustrations with my own body, I can sympathize all too much and feel the agony that they must be going through. I praise God for my own health and well being and continue to pray for those who suffer from long term pain or illness. Our God is a god creator, and a God who can heal. Sometimes this is through our medical knowledge, technology and doctors...but other times its through that special touch of the Holy Spirit.
The Bible says God needs only to send His word and healing can spread throughout the land
""He sent His word and healed them, and delivered them from their destructions." Psalms 107:20
I leave you with one of the verses that has been an encouragement to me:
"Many are the afflictions of the righteous, but the Lord delivers him out of them all. He guards all his bones; not one of them is broken." (Psalm 34:19)
Thank you!
