Prayer For Healing Child
Oh Lord our God, this life threatening illness has wreaked havoc on this little baby and it is so distressing to see them so very sick. There is no one but You to whom we may turn, and so we come to plead Your intervention in this sickness, and ask that You restore them to full health and strength.
Lord, give grace to the parents, knowing that this life threatening sickness has caused them so much concern and worry, and we ask Your special comfort to surround them and Your strength to support them so that they may not be tossed about by many negative thoughts, but be enabled to care for their child with clarity of thought and wisdom.
Remove all the pain that this little one is suffering, and keep both parents and child from fearful thoughts. May they set the thoughts of their mind on You, trusting their precious little baby into Your safe-keeping, and may the peace of God guard their hearts and Your reassuring comfort flood their soul. This we ask in Jesus' name,
Amen.
Jesus,
You're with us.
Though you are not seen,
We know that you stay by our side.
Jesus,
You love us,
More than we could know,
And you feel each tear that we cry.
Jesus,
We trust you,
To take hold of our hands,
Until we're recovered and well.
Jesus,
You promise to,
Comfort and care,
Until we are laughing and playing again.
Thank you Jesus.
Amen.

Father, we bow before You in reverence and fear, asking for Your healing touch on the life of this little child. We are concerned Lord, about this chronic illness and pray that in Your grace and mercy, this little baby might be quickly healed and speedily nursed back into full health and strength.
Comfort this little one and ease the suffering and discomfort that they are going through, and we pray that the distressing symptoms of this chronic sickness would soon be reduced and that the baby returns to normal health, in every part of their body.
Give the doctors the wisdom to treat this illness correctly and quickly. Strengthen and help the parents and all who are involved in the nursing care and give them all they may need to continue to look after such a sick child. May they be able to lay all of their worries and concerns down at Your feet, knowing that You are the God Who cares for little children and You are a God Who heals.
May Your peace that passes understanding guard the hearts of the parents in the days that lie ahead, and we will give You all the praise and all the glory. In Jesus' name,
Amen.
