Pray according to the promises of God. Exercise your faith. Don’t lean on anyone else, not me, not anyone. Don’t ask for as many people to pray as possible. In most cases, it makes things worse when you ask more Christians to pray, because most people pray in unbelief, and their prayers are practically curses against the sick person. Ask for more people to pray with you only if they have faith. Jesus would throw a person’s own family members out of the room. He threw his own disciples out of the room and allowed only several to remain.
Sometimes the sick person has already decided he is going to die because it is “God’s will.” He refuses to listen to God’s word, because apart from God’s word, he has decided what is God’s will for him. Those who teach the doctrine of cessationism will be responsible for his death. Those who teach the perversion of divine sovereignty will have his blood on their hands. These are those who teach that something is up to “God’s will” even though God has already made a promise regarding it. Thus I refer to most of those who teach divine sovereignty. They are murderers. We teach the strongest version of God’s sovereignty, but we also teach that God’s word has been established, so that it is because he is sovereign that we know we shall always be healed when we receive by faith.
Remember that many of the detailed instances of healing in the Gospels say that the sick came to Jesus in faith, and not that they already decided to die or that sickness was God’s will. So this issue might affect the outcome. It is unbelief. It is a demonic stronghold pretending to be pious sound doctrine. Instead of praying and praying and praying, you should first attempt to talk the person out of dying and into believing God’s promises on healing. Preach the gospel to him – the only gospel in the Bible is one that comes with physical healing. If the person has lost consciousness, then there is not much you can do about this part, unless you can command him to regain consciousness in the name of Jesus, so that you can talk to him.
As you pray, focus on what God says, not what I say or what the doctors say. Pray according to God’s word, and you will have no regrets.
