The grandson of late evangelist Billy Graham is currently in critical condition battling COVID-19, but that has not stopped him from sharing the good news of Jesus Christ with the Emergency Room (ER) and Intensive Care Unit (ICU) staff of the hospital he was admitted to in USA.
Jonathan Lotz, who reportedly worked with his grandfather from 1994 through 2002, is still deeply focused on his faith and ministering to others despite his condition, according to a Facebook post by his mother, Anne Graham Lotz, Billy Graham’s daughter.
Anne Graham Lotz took to social media to ask for prayer for her son over the weekend.
“Fifty years ago I could hold my son in my arms. Now I have placed him in the arms of Jesus,” her post read.
“Pray he will not have to go on a ventilator, that his oxygen levels would increase, that his lungs will be strengthened, healed and that his health will be fully restored — with no long-term complications,” continued Anne, 73.
Anne stated she is communicating with Jonathan via text message, adding that he is “physically exhausted yet spiritually overflowing.”
“I am continually pouring over the Psalms of Ascent (120-134) in ICU. I have had the privilege of sharing Jesus with the ER & ICU staff! What a Savior! God is so good!” Jonathan testified to his mother in his update.
The Christian Post reported that Jonathan has continued to honor his grandfather’s legacy as he operates his own ministry. Through Jonathan Lotz Ministries, he preaches the Gospel of Jesus Christ worldwide.
Graham Lotz said her son’s strong faith reminded her of Genesis 41:52. “He is being fruitful in the land of his affliction,” she declared.
The Rev. Billy Graham, who died at age 99 at his North Carolina home in 2018, was remembered as one of the 20th century’s most influential Christian figures for preaching Jesus Christ to some 215 million people in 185 countries over the course of seven decades.
