PLEASE PRAY FOR MELISSA
Dear Friends and Family,
Melissa had another surgery on Thursday (5/8) to place a shunt inside her body to allow brain fluid to drain to her stomach. Friday morning the doctor adjusted the shunt valve to compensate for more brain swelling.
Melissa’s high fever is the biggest concern for her doctor. The fever began Wednesday and by Friday reached the highest it’s been … 105.4°F (40.8°C). At 11:00 p.m. Friday her fever was still over 103.1°F (39.5°C). Additionally, her heart rate remains very high … between 150 to 173. We really need to pray for her fever to lower and heart beat drop to below 110.
God has sent us to prayer school to shape our faith and spirit through Melissa’s situation, let us stand in the gap and continue to pray until this battle is won.
In the Old Testament, God answers Joshua’s prayer on the day the Lord gave the Amorites over to Israel, by making the sun stand still over Gibeon, and the moon stop over the Valley of Aijalon. (Joshua 10:12-13). We believe in and serve the same God, He who is the same yesterday and today and forever (Hebrews 13:8), and we proclaim by faith through our prayers to command Melissa’s fever and heart beat to lower. Please say “Amen” in agreement with me in this.
We implore God to supply us with His grace and strength hour-by-hour to enable us to face all difficulty and challenge that lies before us. Thank you for all of you who stand with us together as one Body of Christ. I feel that God loves to see this ... may He be glorified.
I believe God will give Marlene the most wonderful Mother's day blessing ... to see Melissa on the way to recovery. I wish all the sisters in Christ have a most blessed Mother's day ever.
"The peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." Philippians 4:7
In Love and In Him,
Michael
