Prayer Requested for Jack Laws
In case there’s anyone who hasn’t heard, Jack Laws (of the Smoky Mountain Reunion) was hospitalized on Monday due to 2 leaking heart valves. He is needing the valves replaced, and the doctors are wanting to do some bypasses. I’ve been burdened for Brother Jack and would like to ask prayer warriors everywhere to please join me in interceding on his behalf. There is no such thing as “routine” surgery. It is God who guides surgeons and gives doctors wisdom and we need to ask Him to do both of those things. I don’t know when these things will take place but I do know that they don’t typically perform surgery unless a patient is strong enough to undergo it so pray for that as well.
This is not meant to alarm anyone. Troy Burns posted yesterday that Jack was doing better. I just know he has a long road ahead to recovery and I’m sure he’d appreciate our prayers on his behalf. Too often, we save prayer as a last ditch effort when God should be the first person we look to in times like these.
Father God, I ask that you will touch Brother Jack right now. Fill his room with Your presence. Give him and those around him peace to know that You are in control. Life and death are in Your hands, and I ask that you will be merciful and leave Jack with us a while longer. Give him the strength he needs to go through the surgeries that You prescribe. Give the doctors wisdom concerning what to do and when to do it. I pray for Archie Watkins, Troy Burns, Marlin Shubert and Eddie Dietz as they minister this week. Fill their hearts with Your peace that they may effectively minister to the people who come to their concerts. Thank You, Father, for the work You are doing. May You receive the glory in everything. I love You and trust You. In Jesus’ name, Amen!
