Prayer for This World

Heavenly Father,

We come before You today in awe of Your greatness and grace. We acknowledge that You are the Creator of this world and that all things are under Your control.

We give You thanks for the blessings You have bestowed upon us, and for the many ways You have guided and protected us.

We humbly ask that You would continue to guide and protect those who are in positions of leadership and that Your will would be done on earth as it is in heaven. We pray for peace and unity among the nations, and for an end to the divisions and conflicts that cause so much suffering.

We also lift up those who are suffering, whether it be due to poverty, illness, or persecution, and ask that You would bring them comfort and healing.

We pray for the strength to be Your hands and feet in the world, to love and serve those around us, and to be a light to those who are lost.

And in all things, we pray that Your glory would be revealed and that many would come to know You as their Savior.

We ask this in the name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.

Prayer of Healing for the Sick

Heavenly Father,

We come before You today with a heavy heart. Our loved one is suffering from illness. We trust in Your loving kindness and tender mercies. You, O Lord, are the Great Physician. We ask that You would heal this sickness if it is Your will. Restore our loved one to full health.

If healing is not Your will, we trust that You have a greater plan and purpose for this situation. Give us the strength and grace to accept it. We also ask for Your provision for all the needs that come along with this illness: physical, emotional, and financial.

We believe that nothing is impossible for You, and we put our faith and trust in You. Give our loved one the strength and courage to endure this trial, and surround them with Your peace. We also ask that You would give wisdom and guidance to the doctors and medical professionals treating our loved one. May they have the knowledge and skills needed to make the right decisions for their care.

We lift this prayer up to You in the name of Jesus, who bore our infirmities and carried our sorrows. Amen.
