This announcement was posted on Dr. Mohler blog a short while ago, requesting prayer on his behalf:

Dr. Mohler’s health has sustained a setback. Over the past 36 hours Dr. Mohler has suffered from unrelenting pain. This unusual degree of pain signaled concern for the attending physicians and prompted additional tests this afternoon. In the past hour these tests have revealed that Dr. Mohler is suffering from pulmonary emboli in both lungs. His condition is quite serious and he has been moved to the intensive care unit of Baptist East Hospital in Louisville, KY for immediate treatment.

Please make this a matter of urgent prayer. Thank you once again for your concern and support during these days.

If you didn’t know Dr. Mohler was in the hospital, here is a little background, posted yesterday:

Dr. Mohler continues to recuperate from abdominal surgery at Baptist East Hospital in Louisville, KY. Daily he is gaining strength and making progress, but he still has a good deal of recovery before him. Please continue to pray for his complete and expedient recovery and for the Lord to grant him abundant grace during this time of convalescence.

Dr. Al Mohler is a friend to Sovereign Grace Ministries, and we have been very well served by his teaching and writings.  Please pray that God would miraculously intervene, and that He would work through the common grace of medicine to restore Dr. Mohler to full health.

“…pray for one another, that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous person has great power as it is working.”  (James 5:16)
