Prayer for Ellison

Heavenly Father, You are intimately aware of the illness that Ellison is experiencing -- the pain he is feeling, and the despair his family must be feeling. You know the desire of my heart and the families heart for Ellison to be healed of this illness. I ask now for Your healing touch. I know that You are able and that just like in Bible times, You can heal Ellison. “I also understand that You will chose what is best for this young child. I pray that through this trial, the family will draw close to You -- that You will supply them with comfort and strength. I pray that ultimately, whatever happens, You will be glorified through Ellison. I pray this in Jesus’ name, amen.”


In - James 5:14-16 Is any one of you sick? He should call the elders of the church to pray over him and anoint him with oil in the name of the Lord. And the prayer offered in faith will make the sick person well; the Lord will raise him up. If he has sinned, he will be forgiven. NIV

Thanks alot. He had a doctor appt yesterday. Still isn't doing well, but I'm believing in God. Ellison is a leader and a fighter. He will fight for his place as a leader.
