Prayer For End Of Life
Awesome God, because You loved the world, You gave Your only Son, so that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life! With death being an intense reality in life right now, I pray that my faith makes this word an even greater reality. I am promised eternal life in You; even if the doctor proclaims death, You proclaim life! Thank You for Your unwavering love and Your everlasting word, Amen.
Beautiful One, I know that Your Son is the resurrection and the life. Whoever believes in Him will not perish but will have everlasting life. I believe in this word and declare it over my life, I declare it over this situation. Death is close, but Your word is closer, Your word brings truth and brings life to those who believe. Thank You for everlasting life Father; thank You for defeating death, Amen.
Holy Father, You revealed a mystery in 1 Corinthians that states that we shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound and the dead will be raised imperishable, and we shall be changed. I pray that this word brings me peace as I meditate on the fact that this transition into death is but a moment in my life, Amen.
God of Love, help us find comfort in Your word that tells us that neither death nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers, nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord. I pray that even in death we know that we are not separated from You and Your omniscient power, Amen.
Creator of the Heavens and the Earth, for us to live in Christ, and to die is gain. If I am to live in the flesh, that means fruitful labor for me. Yet which I shall choose I cannot tell. I am hard-pressed between the two. My desire is to depart and be with Christ, for that is far better. Lord, You are our desire, we yearn to be with You in death, so please keep us until we go to our place with You in heaven, Amen.
Omnipotent God, the Word declares that the man who remains steadfast under trial is blessed, for when he has stood the test, he will receive the crown of life, which You have promised to those who love You. I thank You in advance for the crown of life! I thank You in advance for the heavenly reward that is so much greater and much more beautiful than I could even comprehend, Amen.
Gracious God, hope of those who call to you,
we pray for our sisters and brothers who are approaching the end of life. Help us to be of comfort to them in their last earthly hours. May they experience freedom from distress, spiritual healing, and true consolation and trust in you. When they take their last breath, receive them to yourself with mercy and love, so that they may share happiness, peace, and the fullness of life with you forever. Through the intercession of Our Lady of Lourdes and in the name of your Son, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit, now and forever. Amen.
