Prayer For Memory
Dear Lord, I love my Mom so much but it is so sad to see the way that she has been losing her memory over the last months, and is getting to the point where she is becoming so confused that she often does not remember our names or even recognize who we are.
Lord this degenerative process and loss of memoryisso painful.. and at times I just want to sob my eyes out as my own precious Mom is becoming so frail and vulnerable. And yet as I watch her I also have a heart filled with thanksgiving and praise, that You ordained that she would be my mother and I would be her child and I praise and thank You that the day is coming when we will be together with glorified bodies and living in Your presence. Thank You for the blessed hope that we have in You, and the glorious day whenYouhave promised to wipe away all our tears from our eyes and heal all our pain.
How I praise and thank You for that blessed hope..but in themeantimeI ask that You would give us all the grace and patience to love my precious mother through her failing memory and may Your joy and peace remain in her heart
Amen
It is so hard Lord to see my dad starting to become so forgetful and seems to be losing his memory, and I pray that in Your grace and mercy You would show us what to do to prevent this from advancing any further.. and even to reverse the problem.
Lord, You are the one Who designed our minds and our bodies and You are the only one that can truly help him and heal him at this time. Open our eyes to discover if there is anything that we can do to address this issue whether it is with diet or exercise or medication or anything else. Give us the wisdom we pray to help my dad, as we don't want this to advance any further it is so painful.
I pray that You would draw very close to him throughout both the day and the night-time hours. Guide his hesitating steps, keep him from stumbling, protect him when he is in unfamiliar surroundings and prevent him from becoming agitated, upset and frustrated, when he is unable to clearly communicate his needs and wishes to us.
Help my dad.. and all of us, to be willing to accept the advancing years and the deterioration of our health and failing memories. May the angel of Your presence encamp around him and may he feel You every closer to himself in his advancing years in Jesus name we pray,
Amen
Loving Lord, we ask You to hear our prayer for those with Alzheimer's disease and pray that You would grant them You perfect peace in their heart and a loving and secure environment in which to live, where they can be properly cared for, cherished and looked after in a safe and secure environment - with dignity and human respect
We pray that those whose minds are in the process of shutting down would not become fearful or disoriented - and that those whose memory has already become closed off to their nearest and dearest, would be granted His perfect peace deep within their soul and may the joy of the Lord flood their hearts.
We ask for Your blessing and grace on all who care for patients or relatives with Alzheimer's disease, knowing that this sort of degenerative condition can be extremely taxing and frustrating. Give each care-worker and every family member the strength, patienceandgrace to deal with this type of severe memory loss, in Jesus name we pray,
Amen.
Oh Lord, We come toYouto lift up all those who have been involved in a vehicle accident and are having to face the devastating consequences of long-term memory loss and on-going physical pain
We ask for Your comfort, grace, strengthandsupport for all who are having to completely rearrange their lives and rethink their future, as a result of such a traumatic misfortune. Draw close to each one we pray, whose memory has been affected, and we ask that You would be very close to all who have had to suffer in this way. We pray that they might find You to be their ever-present help in time of trouble and know Your presence with them each moment of the day.
Look down in pity and mercy we pray - not only on the victims whose lives have been changed socruelly,but on all family members and friends who have been severely impacted by such a devastating blow. Give them wisdom to know what to do and the grace to face the future with confidence knowing that through it all..You have promised to never leave them nor forsake them.
Supply each one with Your sufficient grace and may they discover through this experience an intimacy with You that they might otherwise have missed this we ask in Jesus name,
Amen
Dear Lord,
Help me to be focused and make my mind sharp today.
Father, I trust in you to give me guidance and show me the way, and in the moment I should forget something Lord, please show me the things I need to see and help me to remember the things I need to remember.
For you are my light, my eyes, my all.
I pray this in your most loving name God Amen
Dear God,I'm grateful for Your love for us. Thank You because You never forget, and thank You for infusing Your very essence and nature into us afresh, through Your Holy Spirit. You are a faithful God. May we grow to be more and more like You.
Lord, You promised in John 14:26 that the Holy Spirit that resides in us our Comforter will also be our Teacher, bringing everything to our remembrance. I believe it, and I praise You because this is the reality that Your son/daughter, _____ lives in.
Help _____ to stay focused on the things that matter today and always, and consistently meditate on Your Word. As Your servant David boldly declared, help _____ keep Your Word in his/her heart so that he/she can live above sin.
Dear God, please place reminders and pointers all around _____, so that when he/she sees, hears or perceives them, he/she can remember those important things he/she needs to do, say or write in every situation.
Lord, You are _____'s Helper, and so he/she will never fret or be put to shame.
I ask that whenever he/she forgets a vital point, You remind him/her of Philippians 4:6, and that peace, instead of anxiety, will flood his/her heart.
May _____ stay aware of Your presence that is constantly with him/her, just as You promised in Joshua 1:9, and may this assurance give him/her courage in the face of fearful situations.
Let Your peace overwhelm him/her. May he/she never throw away his/her confidence in which lies the great reward You have for him/her, as You have commanded in Hebrews 10:35.
In 1 Kings 4:29-30, Your Word tells us how You gave Solomon divine, unmatched and indescribable wisdom and understanding, and a memory as endless as the sand on a beach.
This is my desire for Your son/daughter, _____. In difficult and trying situations, let he/she receive clarity and insight, directly from You, on what to do.
I come against every effort of the enemy to introduce confusion into the mind of Your son/daughter. I pull down every evil imagination that tries to take precedence in his/her mind.
And above all, I ask that You take away every memory of faults, pain, hurt and wrongs. Let Your goodness and mercy be all that _____ can think about.
I pray in Jesus' mighty Name.Amen.
Heavenly Father, it is so hard to come to terms with therealization thatour loved ones have been struck down with some sort of dementia or loss of memory. And Lord it seems even harder to have to accept that the personYouloved so dearly has become
a stranger in Your midst.. with little or no recollection of who you are.
We pray for all who are having to go through this painful experience, and the grief and loss they feel,asthe one they loved so dearly has become estranged and distant from them. We pray for strength andsupport forall
who are having to mourn this tragic loss, despite their physical presence.. and ask that You would comfort and strengthen all in this difficult situation.
But we also pray for those who have lost their memory and the internal confusion and difficulty that must go with losingonesmemories.. forgetting who you are and not even recognizing those that are your close loved
ones. We pray that You would draw very close to all who are suffering memory loss at this time, and we pray that You would touch the inner reaches of their heart and mind and give them the special comfort and precious peace
that only comes from You. This we ask in the name of Jesus our Saviour and God,
Amen.
