Prayer and Fasting

Regan is back in the hospital for his third round of Chemo. He went in the Tuesday after Christmas. Todd and Regan surprised the family by coming home Christmas Eve. What a celebration we had! It was a precious gift from the Lord to be together as a family celebrating the birth of our Savior Jesus.

Todd and I were impressed of the Lord to fast the first 21 days of the new year. The Lord reminded us of Daniel when he prayed and fasted for Jerusalem and an angel of the Lord appeared to him saying, "Do not fear, Daniel, for from the first day that you set your heart to understand, and to humble yourself before your God, your words were heard; and I have come because of your words." But it doesn't end there, the angel goes on to say he was delayed 21 days and needed help from Michael who is a senior angel. Daniel's prayer coupled with fasting brought about change. The angel says to him again in Daniel 10:19 "O man greatly beloved, fear not! Peace be to you; be strong, yes, be strong!"
We know our prayers for Regan have been heard and that healing is coming! We are continuing steadfast in prayer with fasting, knowing that God is faithful to His word. I have included some scriptures that people got for Regan as well as prayer meetings that are happening daily based on Acts 12:5 "but constant prayer was offered to God for him by the church." We know the 'effectual fervent prayer of the righteous man avails much!' We are so thankful for our church family who are standing in faith with us for Regan's healing to manifest.
Constant prayer for Regan:

Word from the Lord:

Phil 4:6&7- Be anxious for nothing... With Thanksgiving
