CLAY, Ala. — A high school student in Alabama jumped to his feet and took the podium Thursday night to lead those gathered for the senior graduation ceremony in prayer as a medical emergency took place in the stands.

According to reports, a family member of a graduating student fell ill as the Clay-Chalkville High School graduation ceremony was underway in the stands of the Cougar Stadium.

Christian Crawford, the senior class president, approached the podium as he felt led to pray, not knowing what was taking place.

“Everybody, can I have your attention real quick?” he said. “We don’t know what’s going on, but we will pray. We know that prayer is power, and that God is able. Let’s pray.

“And in the name of Jesus, we declare and decree in the name of Jesus that whatever is going on shall be fixed, because you are a God who is a fixer,” Crawford continued. “You are a God who is a healer. Jehovah God, Jehovah-jireh, Jehovah-nissi, Jehovah-shiloh. Fix it, Jesus. In Jesus’ name, Amen.”

“What an awesome young man, and what a great crowd,” one commenter named Matt wrote.

“Yes! Pray son! [Jesus] said if you be ashamed of Me before man, I will be ashamed of you before My Father. You just showed the world that you are not ashamed!” another named Kanitra said. “I don’t know you, but I’m mighty glad to say, I love you in Jesus! God bless you.”
