My husband woke me this morning before he went off to work, his tooth is badly abscessed and one side of his face is badly swollen. He is taking an antibiotic and the swelling should be down by the morning. His teeth are really bad. Since he was about 25 his teeth have gotten progressively worse. Now at 35 he needs them all pulled and dentures. The problem is that we are uninsured. We can hardly afford even a monthly payment to a dentist. Please pray for his health and for the financial ability to have his teeth taken care of. And while your at it, pray for me, I worry about him and this new financial burden.

I just got done praying for you and I know that by the name of Jesus Christ, the one true son of God, that he will be healed, and that your problems will be corrected, and the enemy will be blinded.

In the Name of Jesus Christ Pray to you oh father that all of the problems of this family be healed and fixed.

In Jesus's Name, Amen.

Sky, I pray that God will meet every need in your family, financially, physically and spiritually. [Prayer]

Father, make a way where there seems to be no way for Jim. And heal him and cause his teeth to be restored so that his teeth will not be a continual hindrance to his health. Look upon Wonderful Sky with favor and bestow a financial blessing upon her and her family.
All according to Your will Abba, Father. I pray in the Name of Jesus Amen.

I stand in agreement for you. As I try to take care of my own health with very little in the way of medical coverage, your situation strikes a cord with me.

Lord you are the Great Physician, please see Jim through this medical ordeal. His problem is not trivial, though those in the medical profession have made the climate of care so cold with their bureaucracies and yes, greed. Jim's health is most important, Father, as he strives to serve you and the loving wife you have obviously blessed him with. Let the path be cleared to his recovery, and let the healing begin, Lord. I pray in Christ's name, amen.
