Day 197 How to pray for a withered hand?

In today's reading Jeroboam's hand shrivels up (a stroke?). He ask for prayer by a man of God to restore his hand. The request or order went like this..."And the king said to the man of God, “Entreat now the favor of the Lord your God, and pray for me, that my hand may be restored to me.” And the man of God entreated the Lord, and the king's hand was restored to him and became as it was before." The man of God had nothing to do with his sinful life. He left quickly and refused fine dining. A very interesting story.
