Prayer For A Very Sick Child
It's hard to imagine a love that trumps a mother's for her child, especially when they are sick. When they miss out on fun things or are in pain, our hearts ache for them. We would do almost anything, sacrifice what we could, to heal them, make them smile again, see them well. The love of God surpasses what we can comprehend. The Father that gave His own Son, can be trusted to heal our littles. Father, bless and heal our children of their sicknesses. Restore their laughter, and let them play. Stir us to trust You more, and seek You harder. For just as You know us, You know our children. We are entrusted with them as mothers, but they are Yours. And You love them with the same extravagant love. In Jesus' Name, Amen.
O Holy Spirit please come like a dove Shield and protect now the one that I love. Cover their wounds with Your grace feathered wings, Shield them from sorrow, breathe hope songs within. Tend with Your goodness the pain that they bear Heal now their sickness with miracle care. Carry them high far above till they see Your rainbow of promise, real hope lies ahead. I love them so dearly, so help me to be All that you, Jesus, would give out through me.
Father, Thank you that when your Son graced this earth He welcomed the children and blessed them. Thank you that the same power that raised Him from the dead Is at work within N. now. Lord, we give you N. We invite you to come by the power of the Holy Spirit and restore this beautiful child to life. Come and pulse through his body by your Spirit. Bring your healing and strengthen his being. We ask that in the name of Jesus this sickness would leave his body now. Thank you that you hear our prayer and no matter what happens You cherish N. and hold him in the palm of your hand now and always. Amen.
