Heavenly Father,
I come to You today in need of Your healing touch. I lay my burdens at Your feet and ask that You reveal Your power and love to me. I confess my unfaithfulness and ask for Your forgiveness.
I pray for healing in my body, mind, and spirit. I believe that nothing is impossible for You and that You have the power to make all things new. I ask for strength and courage to face any challenges that come my way, even if healing doesn’t come.
I trust in Your goodness, faithfulness and sovereignty. I thank You for Your many blessings. I pray that You fill me with Your peace and joy, and that I may be a testimony of Your healing power to those around me, even if I am not healed physically.
In Jesus’ name, I pray. Amen.
Suggested Bible Readings
James 5:14-15 ESV
Is anyone among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the church, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord. And the prayer of faith will save the one who is sick, and the Lord will raise him up. And if he has committed sins, he will be forgiven.
3 John 2 ESV
Beloved, I pray that all may go well with you and that you may be in good health, as it goes well with your soul.
Isaiah 41:10 ESV
fear not, for I am with you;
be not dismayed, for I am your God;
I will strengthen you, I will help you,
I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.
