What to do when you prayed and the loved one passed away. I dedicate this teaching to those who has had a loved one pass away from cancer or Covid 19. In particular this message came the day after a 10 year girl who loved the Lord, her family, her church and went to heaven. She had a brain tumor. It was a twelve month battle. The Lord spoke to my heart when I woke up that Sunday morning on January 10, 2021 – He spoke this word to my heart. “What To Do Now When You Do Not Know Why”. There are several things that the family, my family, and our church family began to do to help us and I trust it may help you or someone that you may know. I said I refuse to let this shipwreck my faith in God. God is not the author of sickness and disease. The enemy comes to steal, kill, and destroy. John 10:10. Because we know God’s will for healing is found in III John 2. I wish above all things that you prosper and be in health even as your soul prospers.
In times when loves ones pass away it is so important to stay connected to God and His Word and to each other by praying for and with each other. I encourage you to have a moment to be silent. Be still and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth! Psalms 46:10 I know in the quiet moments I experience God’s love, His presence, and His comfort. I choose to find a song that will Glorify God and lift up my heart. The Lord is my strength and song, and He has become my salvation; He is my God, and I will praise Him; my father’s God and I will exalt Him. Exodus 15:2 The psalmist stated The Lord will command his lovingkindness in the daytime, and in the night His song shall be with me. Psalms 42:8. “What to doWhat to do when you do not know why” I have decided that I’m going to continue to say “The Lord is my helper; I will not fear. Hebrews 13:6 The Lord will help me one day at a time. One moment at a time. He has grace for you in each passing day. I will see His goodness in the land of living. Psalms 27:13. I will lift up my eyes to the hills – from whence come my help? My help cometh from the Lord, who made heaven and earth. The God who is my helper and comforts me. It is my prayer that you will allow Him to comfort you.
