Continue to pray

I want to give you an update on Luke. Luke's Mom Sue held Luke most of the night last night in a rocking chair and just poured out the love and prayers that only a mother can provide. Sue went to the apartment and is resting right now, pray that she will get some much needed deep restful sleep.

Luke's temprature is normal, this is good, as a fever would be an indication of pneumonia. There is a great deal of fluid still building in the throat and nasal passages. Luke still needs to cough and swallow. He coughs some and it helps, but he needs to cough more and then swallow to get rid of the secretions.

I appreciate each and every one of you that has agreed to fast and pray for Luke this day. He is a fighter and at this moment, he is hanging in there strong. I dont know where we will be at the end of this day, and I will most likely be coming again to ask for more prayer for Luke. This I do know, we serve the one true God that created this universe, he is the same yesterday, today and forevermore. My faith in God and His love for me is more stronger now then it ever has been.

By the way, I just want to say Hi to a 5th grade class in Highland, CA that heard about Luke and are following on the web. As Luke's Dad, I want to say Thank You for caring about little Luke and I hope and pray that some day you will get a chance to meet the little boy that has changed us all.

Hi,Luke's Dad and Mom, This past weekend Shane, my husband told me that I needed to send you guys this song by Mark Schultz...I have thought that this must be the way you are feeling! The song is called...He's My Son... We are still praying for Little Luke! Blessings to you and all your family and people that love Luke so much. Julie in NC

Lyrics:
I’m down on my knees again tonight
I’m hoping this prayer will turn out right
See there is a boy that needs your help
I’ve done all that I can do myself
His mother is tired
I’m sure you can understand
Each night as he sleeps
She goes in to hold his hand
And she tries not to cry
As the tears fill her eyes

Chorus:
Can you hear me?
Am I getting through tonight?
Can you see him?
Can you make him feel all right?
If you can hear me
Let me take his place somehow
See, he’s not just anyone
He’s my son

Sometimes late at night I watch him sleep
I dream of the boy he’d like to be
I try to be strong and see him through
But God who he needs right now is You
Let him grow old
Live life without this fear
What would I be
Living without him here
He’s so tired and he’s scared
Let him know that You’re there
Chorus

Can you hear me?
Am I getting through tonight?
Can you see him?
Can you make him feel all right?
If you can hear me
Let me take his place somehow
See, he’s not just anyone
He’s my son



Instrumental Interlude


Can you hear me?
Can you see him?
Please don’t leave him
He’s my son

We know that in the midst of any storm there will come strong waves; ups and downs. We also know that when the Master is in the boat He calms the winds and the waves with a simple word. Praise God for His word and for the fact that although Luke faces ups and downs; the Master is in the boat calming the storms and our fears with a simple, "peace, be still."
We will continue to hold you and Sue's arms up, like Aaron and Hur in the midst of this battle through prayer and fasting. We take comfort because this battle truly is the Lord's.
As mere mortals we can get disheartened by the "bad reports" but we are not to be surprised by the tactics of our enemy. He sees how God is using this horrid situation, and tries to counter-attack with fearful reports. We continue to have faith: "the substance of things hoped for; the evidence of things not seen." Faith in our God who shall do valiantly....

Last night, my 18 month old was coughing in his sleep and I thought "That's right Max, show Luke how to cough!" Gordon, I'm praying for Luke every way I know how. He's come so far in just one short week, but I can imagine that it feels like a decade for you and Sue. Stay strong, Lisa D.

Precious Brother in Christ, as tears flow down my face I can picture your sweet wife loving on her boy all night. I watched my precious sister hold her boy in the hospital after a drowning and words cannot express the sorrow............As I fast and pray God has shown me so many sweet things about Him in His word this morning...I am convinced of one thing. He is a faithful trustworthy Father we can cling to... This may be a repeat but awesome Truth.................. Isaiah 40:28-31 Do you not know? Have you not heard? The Everlasting God, the Lord, the Creator of the ends of the earth Does not become weary or tired (we do) His understanding is inscrutable. (ours isn't)He gives strength to the weary, And to him who lacks might He increases power....vs.31 YET THOSE WHO WAIT FOR THE LORD WILL GAIN NEW STRENGTH; They will mount up with wings like eagles, They will run and not get tired, They will walk and not become weary.............. Do not fear precious brother and sister for He is with you, do not anxiously look about you, for He is your God. He will strengthen you, and help you. He will uphold you with His righteous right hand. Loving you all in AZ, CF

Although the medical reports say that Luke's situation is "impossible," it is not impossible for God; EVERYTHING is possible for God (Mark 10:27).

Medical science offers no hope, but our hope is in the LORD who made the heavens and the earth with the power of His VOICE. The centurian recognized the authority and command of that Voice: "But say the word, and my servant will be healed." Psalm 107:20 says, "He sent His word and healed them".

I'm joining with you in fasting and prayer today. It's almost 10:00AM, so I'd better sign off so I can join the "top of the hour" prayer team.

I love you all.

We are all still with you. The vision of Luke's mom in a chair with her son is a loving one. It is good that Isaiah continues to post his prayers for Luke here. They help him and Luke both.

Hi Luke, It's another day and you are still fighting hard. Good boy. Try coughing a bit more for your mom and dad. Two more teddies are being 'sent' today. People care about you.

Luke say's hi Grandpa. I replied by telling him that I love him and am praying for him.

Last night while reading all the comments, my family in Jesus Christ, were sending from around the world, I read of all hunting and needs they had and still praying for my grandson Luke. I started crying out in praise to God, then while praying I had a feeling from God that HE knows of all the needs and healing you all need. I asked what I could do and I felted to pray for all of you. I prayed that evryone of you and all your family hurts, relationship and personal needs will be touch by God, Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit will touch you. My God is every were and I believe He wants to do more than we are willing to ask Him to do.

I know that God loves all of us, HE tells us so (John 3:16).

There is so much more I could say so I'll just say that I and Grandma Miller love you. I will close how and pray first for Luke than for you all.

Dad, Grandpa (PaPa) Ray Miller

Gordy and Sue,

Just a quick note to tell you that I submitted a request for prayer on the Brooklyn Tabernacle web site. As you may know, they have a 24-hour "Prayer Band," and the church holds a standing-room-only prayer meeting every Tuesday night. As a response to my submission, the website returned the following note, which I am including in its entirety, for your encouragement:
____________________

"The Brooklyn Tabernacle Prayer Band has received your request and will be lifting it up before the Lord for the next 30 days. We are believing God along with you.

'This is the confidence we have in approaching God: that if we ask anything according to his will, he hears us. And if we know that he hears us--whatever we ask--we know that we have what we asked of him.'
(1 John 5:14-15)

Remember to Persist in Prayer

'Then Jesus told his disciples a parable to show them that they should always pray and not give up. He said: "In a certain town there was a judge who neither feared God nor cared about men. And there was a widow in that town who kept coming to him with the plea, 'Grant me justice against my adversary.'
"For some time he refused. But finally he said to himself, 'Even though I don't fear God or care about men, yet because this widow keeps bothering me, I will see that she gets justice, so that she won't eventually wear me out with her coming!' "
And the Lord said, "Listen to what the unjust judge says. And will not God bring about justice for his chosen ones, who cry out to him day and night? Will he keep putting them off? I tell you, he will see that they get justice, and quickly. However, when the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on the earth?' (Luke 18:1-8)"

Gordy and Sue,
Our computer has been down for a few days so our friend calls us and read us the updates. Thank you for your calls as it of course helps us know specifically what to pray forand how you are doing. How precious to see Luke's little picture with his Teddy and no breathing tube! We are agreeing with you in fasting and prayer for our Gracious Heavenly Father to do a Mighty Healing in Luke's body!
What a beautiful thing to be a part of the body of Christ. I have walked with Him for 17 years and have often been amazed at the love of Jesus extended to us among the family of believers in times of need but I have NEVER seen the love of Jesus poured out to this extent: ie. around the world. I think of that song How beautiful is the body of Christ. I know our phone rings off the hook of loved ones calling to pray together or find out about Luke and it just amazes me how much people care- That is Christ at work as he says his people have the mind of Christ= which gives people that kind of compassion and burden bearing even for people they have never met. We love you and look forward to praise reports of God's touch on Luke.
Isaiah 58: Is this not the fast that I have chosen:
.... to share your bread with the hungry, And that you bring to your house the poor who are cast out: When you see the naked, that you cover him ... (your family has been so obedient to the Lord in fulfilling all these things as you are constantly reaching out and ministering to others) Then your light shall break forth like the morning, your healing shall spring forth speedily and your righteousness shall go before you and The glory of the Lord shall be your rear guard.
Father God we ask you to bring forth Luke's healing speedily in Yeshua's Name! Love, Mary

I wish I did not know what your family is experiencing now, but our family has walked the halls you find yourselves today. It brings tears to me now while praying for Luke and his family for the healing, strength, love, comfort, and medical knowledge of the team caring for Luke that God gives freely.

Celebrate Luke's life and continue to hear the lessons even in these hardest of times. Every child is a miricle every moment of their lives. I pray for Luke's recovery and for strength and comfort for his Mom and Dad and all those so close and dear to Luke.

This message is to Papa Miller, Lukes Grandpa. We love you and are praying for you. I will never forget the sadness my parents went through with the loss of my precious nephew, their grandson.(May 2003) They not only had their own loss but suffered watching their daughter, son in law and grandchildren as well. My heart breaks for all of your big family. For the Grandparents, Aunties, Uncles and cousins involved. May God hold all of you. May He give you an extra blessing and filling of the Holy Spirit as He equips you to help support the Searles family. Our hearts continues to lift up precious Luke for a full recovery in prayer and fasting.

Hi Searles-
I just wanted to say that everyone here at Northwest College and Shoreline Community are praying for Luke and the family. I think this blog has been an amazing testimony of your faith and it is awesome how God has used even this situation to touch many lives. I just want to leave you with one of my favorite verses that has helped me in times of need.

"I remember my affliction and my wandering, the bitterness and the gall. I well remember them, and my soul is downcast within me. YET this I call to mind and therefore I have hope: Because of the LORD's great love we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail. They are new every morning; great is your faithfulness. I say to myself, 'The LORD is my portion; therefore I will wait for him.' The LORD is good to those whose hope is in him, to the one who seeks him"
*Lamentations 3:19-25*

Remember that because of his awesome, amazing, undeserved love for us, we are not consumed by anything that comes against us. You faith is encouraging. Keep trusting in Him.

Ever since I found out about what happened, I have been praying for you. Even though I didn't know your name I figured that God knew who you were.

We don't know or understand God's ways or timing on things, we can take comfort in his word.

And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.

God bless you with comfort and I pray that your son will return to you soon.

Last night as I prayed for Luke and your family....all that I kept thinking and praying was that you (Sue) could HOLD Luke and rock him so he could feel his MOMMYS loving arms....and that you would be able to pour out the love and prayers that only a mommy can...just Like Gordy has reported to us that you were able to do ...God is awesome ......God has amazingly bonded us all together through prayer....and today as we continue to fast and pray for Luke God is going to do incredible things.

Gordy, Sue, Luke, and family,

God is awesome. I seem to be praying 24/7. I have never felt more in touch with God than I do now. Every time I wake I am praying. Worship songs are always in my mind and heart. Luke is a miracle, because God used him to touch my heart. I don't think there are words to express my heart for you all. God has mended my heart and allowed me to be free to love. I can't tell you enough, or often enough how much I love you all. You know my prayers are with you, and I am rejoicing in God's love for you. God, you know my heart for these loved ones. I ask that you show them more love, more blessings, more strength, and more rest. Fill their hearts with peace. Let all those that are praying be a blessing to them as they have been a blessing to all of us. God please take care of Luke. He is your angel, and he has ministered to so many. We thank you for him. Lord hear our prayers and comfort Gordy, Sue, and their children. Give them peace beyond peace and Love beyond Love. I pray these things in your Holy name Jesus Christ. Amen ~ Bob Hart

I don't know if this means much, but ever since last Tuesday, when I am praying for Luke the song "Jesus loves me" keeps going through my head! Every single time! Because when God's children are weak The Lord is STRONG!Our God is such an awesome God and is with you all and Luke every day, every hour, every minute, every second!!!! He is ALWAYS there. He cannot leave you because he can't! He loves you all SO desperatly to leave! I know it pains Him to see Luke like that, but I believe he's saying "Just wait, just wait! Wait till you see MY finshed work!" AMEN! Love and many prayers, Nicole J.

I, too, as I was praying late last eve saw Sue holding Baby Luke, rocking, stroking and singing to him. There is nothing more special than a mother's touch, unless, of course, it is the most wonderful touch from our Lord. And, we all know he is touching Luke, all of you and all of us who are sharing this with you. Yes, we are sharing your burdon in so many ways, hoping to lighten your load just a bit. I don't know all the words to this song....but...THE BATTLE BELONGS TO THE LORD. And we are so thankful he is battle for Luke. Thank you Jesus for your mercies, comfort and almighty love. I am continuing to...pray and love....

Hey Luke...I sure love you little friend. I know how comfortable and cozy you were with Mommy last night. She loves you a whole bunch too, so does Daddy and all your brother and sisters...I want you to know that there are a whole lot of people around the world who love you too. But the most important love is the love your Father in Heaven has for you. Cuddle tight with Mommy and your sweet Teddy....

As with everyone who lives at this blog waiting eagerly for the latest update, our hearts ache and our minds are consumed with thoughts and prayers for Luke. This really hits home for those of us who have little ones at home. I can't stop thinking about my own inability to carry myself through something like this without divine intervention. You guys are an awesome example for the rest of us to follow. We pray that God continues to pour out His peace upon you and that we begin to see the start of Luke's complete restoration soon.

It is about perspective. You can go there and read it, its a little long to post here but it goes along with the scripture that my wife Jenni posted above.

Your family is constantly on my mind and in my prayers as our family went through a very similar situation with my mother just this May while I was in my 7th month of pregnancy. We prayed and fasted while yielding Mama to His will. This did not turn the hand of the Lord, but rather turned our hearts to Him in acceptance of His will. God did not choose to send Mama back to us, but we are sincerely praying that your Luke will be restored to you in perfect health with a testimony that will draw many to salvation.
Sincerely,

Luke's Parents, Family, Friends, & Brothers & Sisters in Christ,

I have personally witnessed God's Miracles in my life. My youngest son, who was born 3 months premature at just 24 weeks justation; was given no chance for survival. I have no doubt that it is the prayers of the many that moved our Lord to reach out his hand and touch my little Jereme (he weighed 1.12 lbs. My little boy not only survived but he thrived and he touched many lives with the love of Jesus before returning home to be with the Lord at age 12 in Sept. 2002.
I am eternally grateful to the Lord for those 12 precious years and to the faithful who were moved to pray and believe for a miracle on his behalf. We should never take for granted the power of prayer. So, to the precious family of little Luke, I stand with you as a sister in Christ believing for his miracle! I further believe that one that has come so close to returning home to be with the Lord, comes back to us with the faith and the ability to move many towards eternal salvation. This is my prayer for you! Please believe that it is God's desire to bring all things to his glory, and I believe he will bring this situation to his glory!
