A Prayer of Healing

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.
