“During this time of the season there are so many veterans and service members that are going through health issues and the healing process. Whether its PTSD, TBI, MST, or other Invisible Disabilities these are very challenging times for those individuals. Let’s keep all of them in our prayers for continued healing therapy and comfortable convalescence during the holidays. May all those wonderful veterans and individuals going through health and healing tribulations know that we are thinking of them and wishing them the very best in their process of healing; may they all have a positive attitude toward that goal of being free from pain; may your mind, body, and soul be opened to grace, goodness, peace, forgiveness, and a bountiful life of purpose; and keep your family safe, secure, happy, and healthy. If the mind can heal the body but the body can’t heal the mind, then the mind must be stronger than the body.” – COL (Ret) Mikel Burroughs

I expect that you are aware that the LORD healed you completely from sin and HE justified YOU at your personal salvation from the Atonement of Jesus the Christ. The LORD God designed our bodies to heal from most sicknesses and injuries and even cancer cells forming. The lymphatic system in our bodies and the white blood cells are part of God’s design for healing in our bodies. 'He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, that we might die to sin and live to righteousness. By his wounds you have been healed.’ [1 Peter 2:24 ESV], my brother-in-Christ SrA Alvin Cook
Lord God, I pray that YOU bless the medical researchers, manufacturers and testers as well as volunteers being tested for various diseases including SARS-Cov-2 with wisdom and insight to develop effective and efficient treatments for cancers and vaccines for SARS-Cov-2.
I pray for healing of family relationships. LORD I pray YOU motivate confession and forgiveness for past family incidents among the body of Christ. Enable and empower the living to come to peace with those who have died already. ‘Therefore, confess your sins to one another, and pray for one another so that you may be healed. The effective prayer of a righteous man can accomplish much.’ [James 5:15-16 ESV]
I lift those tormented with PTSD and nightmares and those suffering from severe depression to YOU LORD. I pray that YOU bless those suffering from repetitive nightmares with peaceful night’s rest.
For those are in sick beds, I pray that you notify your pastor and ask him/her to either come to anoint with oil or pray over the phone if sickness is contagious. ‘Is anyone among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the church, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord. And the prayer of faith will save the one who is sick, and the Lord will raise him up.’ James 5:14-15 ESV]
I pray that you and your family members are healthy.
By the power and authority of the Name above all names, Jesus the Christ

Good morning Col Burroughs. As a counselor and mental health provider, I love the topic. We all have a right to be healthy and to ask for what we need to be so. None of us can do it alone; we need to reach out to others for support. If this pandemic taught us anything it should be how our health and wellness is connected to our ability to connect and be supported by others.
