Prayer For Sick Mother
God of All Comfort, as my mom is dealing with sickness, I pray that You would comfort her. I am sure that she is fighting against a million fearful thoughts about how serious the sickness is. Lord, I pray that You would be next to her and go before her. Be her comfort and her rock that she does not fear. I also pray, Lord, that it isn't something serious, but is instead just a temporary cold that runs its course quickly. In Jesus', name I pray, Amen.
Jesus, the Great Physician, I just heard the news that my mom is sick. She is laid up in bed and can't go about her normal routine. I know how much she loves to be active and to move around the house and the neighborhood. Jesus, I pray that You would heal her and allow her to return to full health. Inactivity must be very demoralizing for her. I pray that You would also ease and pain or discomfort she has during this time until she is healed. In Jesus' name, I pray, Amen.
Jehovah Rapha, my Healer, I pray against the side effects of the medicine that my mom has to take. I have read they can be brutal, and I know she is scared. I pray that You would ease her pain and take away her fear. Make the drugs effective and the side effects at a minimum. In Jesus' name, I pray, Amen.
Oh God of my Salvation, I pray that You would be with the medicine my mom has to take over the next few weeks as she tries to heal. Help her to remember to take it every day, and I pray that it would do the job of healing her body. Thank You, Jesus, that she was able to get the medicine she needed, now I pray that it would work. In Jesus' name, I pray, Amen.
God of Loving Devotion, thank You that my mom is finally willing to go to the doctor to see what has been making her so sick. I pray now that You would grant patience to the doctors so that they listen to my mother instead of trying to quickly get through the appointment with her. Give them the wisdom to figure out what is wrong with my mom. I pray that all the right tests would be run and that they would give a clear picture of what needs to be done for my mom to be cured and return to a state of wellness. In Jesus' name, I pray, Amen.
Lord, Chain-Breaker, please convince my mom that she needs to go to the doctor. She has been sick for so long and has neglected her health. She can be stubborn at times, Lord, and refuses to go see a doctor. I have done all I can to convince her to go. It is up to You now, Lord, to persuade her that she needs to go to the doctor, and soon. Please humble her, take away all fear that she might be feeling, and give me the words to overcome all of her objections. In Jesus' name, I pray, Amen.
Maker of Heaven and Earth, I pray that You would be with my mom as she battles boredom while she is trying to get better. Getting older has forced her to slow down, and there are many days she does not feel well. She is often tired and does not want to do much. She spends a lot of time watching TV or playing games on her phone. Now that she has gotten sick, she is miserable in her boredom, and she seems to have given up on life. It must be difficult for her, Lord. Give me the grace to understand how hard it must be for her, and patience with her when she complains. Give me the thoughts and words to guide her to activities she can do while she is recuperating, and those she can do after she gets better to make this last chapter of her life one filled with meaning. In Jesus' name, I pray, Amen.
