Prayer For A Loved One
Faithful God, you created all things and you sustain all things. My loved one needs your healing touch. Ease their pain and strengthen them when they feel unable to carry on. When they feel deep anguish would you hear their cry and draw near to them. In your mercy Lord, hear my prayer and turn your face towards them. Your unfailing love towards us can overcome any trouble. May they know your presence throughout this struggle and grow in their faith and experience of your grace. Through Jesus Christ, our Lord, Amen.
Creator God, you made a world with no sickness, pain or death but, because of sin, we now live in a world where we experience those things. We can not control the things that happen to us, we need to cling onto you. Thank you that you care about the people that I love. You love them more than I do. Help them to look to you in their time of need. May we all find peace in the hope that you will return one day to rule over a new creation with no more sadness, pain or tears. Through Jesus Christ, our Lord, Amen.
Gracious heavenly Father, when confronted by health problems, I am reminded how dependent we all are on your sustaining power. I turn away from the worldly wisdom that says I can be in control and turn to you instead. I bring my loved one before you now. You can bring health to their body and nourishment to their bones. You can restore their strength, you can give them hope in their struggle. Thank you that I can entrust everyone I care about in your loving hands. Through Jesus Christ, our Lord, Amen.
Lord Jesus Christ, someone I love needs your help at this moment in time. You said that anyone who is feeling weary and burdened should come to you and you would give them rest. I pray that you would give them rest instead of weariness and strength instead of weakness. Your yoke is easy and your burden is light, in you we can find true rest for our souls. I ask that you restore them with your gentle healing touch. Help me to bring comfort to this situation in your power. Through Jesus Christ, our Lord, Amen.
Heavenly Father, you say that I should ask you for whatever I need. To those who ask, it will be given. To those who seek, it will be found. To those who knock, the door will be opened. I ask you for healing for my loved one right now Lord and pray that you would answer my request. You are a loving, good Father who gives good gifts to his children. You love to give good gifts to those who ask. As your humble child, I ask for the gift of healing today. Through Jesus Christ, our Lord, Amen.
All-Powerful God, you are the ruler of your people. Your children find comfort, peace and rest in you. You said that you heal the brokenhearted, I pray that you would do that for my loved one at this time. You said that you would bind up the wounds of the hurting, I ask that you would restore good health. I look to you for all my needs and for the needs of all those I care about. Through Jesus Christ, our Lord, Amen.
Lord Jesus our healer, you know what it is like to experience pain. You know what it's like to experience sorrow at the suffering of your friends. You wept at the tomb of Lazarus. I thank you that you not only know what it is like but that you have the power to transform those situations. After weeping at the tomb, you raised Lazarus from the dead. Sin, pain and sickness are no match for your healing power. You bore our sins in your body on the tree and by your wounds, we are healed. Through Jesus Christ, our Lord, Amen.
Father God, you alone heal hearts and bodies, minds, and spirits. Today, we ask you to lay your healing hand on our loved ones. We ask for the healing of illness, physical weakness, and of broken hearts and spirits. Your love binds all wounds. You are Jehovah Rophe, the LORD our Healer. Restore our family members and friends to wholeness, erase illnesses, relieve all pain, and even if your desire is different, we will praise you.
If you listen carefully to the Lord your God and do what is right in his eyes, if you pay attention to his commands and keep all his decrees, I will not bring on you any of the diseases I brought on the Egyptians, for I am the Lord, who heals you.
