Prayer For Someone After Surgery
O merciful Father in heaven, thank You for being with (name of person) while he/she was in surgery. Thank You for blessing the surgeon with the skill and knowledge needed to do his/her work and safely bringing (name person) through this operation. O gracious Father, bring healing to (name person) and bless him/her with the best care possible as he/she recovers. Continue to bless him/her with your tender care. Grant him/her patience during his/her recuperation, help him/her grow in strength each day, and bring him/her to full recovery quickly, without any setbacks. Amen.
Father, praise You for this life. As we prepare for surgery to the body You have given us, many things flow into our minds and out of our hearts as we lie in wait. Yet, You reassure us in Exodus 15:26: I am the Lord who heals you.
We have an end picture in our minds as to what healed looks like for us, and desperately look to You for assurance that our lives and our pain will be healed. You are above all, see all, know all, and are capable of healing all. When Jesus walked the earth, He healed by the touch of His hand and the sound of His voice. We pray to feel Your healing hand upon us, Lord, and hear Your voice of peace and tranquility boom over the loud pain that throbs through our minds and bodies.
Thank You for a life that is valuable to us and to those around us. We are worth enough to worry about, and thankful enough for the life we've been blessed with on this earth to covet our return to it and full restoration of it. With grateful hearts we come to You in praise for the gift of being able to trod this earth and experience Your love.
Forgive us, Father, for doubting our purpose on earth. We confess just how often we run from what You are calling us to do because we feel it is too hard. And now, as we await the outcome of surgery, we feel compelled to reach back and grab every opportunity that has ever passed us by to walk behind Your Son in pursuit of Your will for our lives. Please forgive our disobedience, and lack of respect for Your timing and Your plans. Help us to place our current and future ambitions on bringing You glory, and the love of Your Son to all who know us.
Father, we trust You with our lives. For You promise us: Lord my God, I called to you for help, and you healed me. (Psalm 30:2) Bless the surgeons and medical staff that will operate on us. Be with them and equip them to be extensions of Your healing hand. Remain present with me, Lord, even when I fall asleep from the pain medication. Help me to feel Your presence, and remember that You are always with me. Never leaving. Always faithful. Loving me more than I'm capable of understanding.
And now for the hardest part: Truly trusting the outcome of my life in Your hands. For it's when our plans for healing don't look the same as Yours that we become frustrated, and faith threatens to pull out of our hearts. Doubt can seep in through the cracks in unexpected circumstances. In those moments, Lord Jesus, strengthen us to remember You. Your ways are not our ways, because only You can claim true love for us. Only You know what is perfect and just in the daily happenings of our lives. Our time here is so fleeting, but our belief in You, Jesus, sets us apart and ensures us life everlasting. Pain free and full of peace.
Help us to hold on to that belief. To hold onto You. As we travel this road of uncertainty, send Your Holy Spirit to inspire our heart's memory of Your sweet words of promise. Help us to recall and repeat the promises You have given us through Your Word. Be with our families and friends as they worry and wonder what the outcome will be. Inspire Your love in their hearts and assure them that my life is in Your hands.
Father, let all who know me witness my peace in this process, and know that it is from You. Thank You for life, God. Bless and heal me today through this surgery. Whether You bring me through these ailments to restore me upright on this earth, or take me through to You, I trust You today, and always. In Jesus' Name, Amen.
O Lord, guide and protect my friend during this time. Thank you for allowing her/him to successfully complete her surgery. Bless the doctors who have done and continue to do so much. Give them the compassion and wisdom that they need to help my friend. In your mercy, protect my friend from pain and anxiety. I pray that you will grant my beloved friend a speedy recovery to good health. Amen.
May you have peace and tranquility within your heart. May God send his angels to surround your bed throughout the day and night. With each day that passes, may God bring new healing with the dawn. May he restore your energy and work to heal your wounds. May God inspire your heart to have hope and strength as you recover. I pray that you will soon be well and that God will give you a speedy recovery. May you soon be healthy enough to live, love and enjoy life fully. Amen.
Dear Father, Thank you for watching my loved one through surgery. Thank you for the care they receive as they recover. Bless their bodies with your spirit that they might heal now In body, mind and soul. Thank you Lord, Amen.
Come Holy Spirit, come and fill my friend with healing power. As they convalesce, entwine their days with rest, with hope, with gentle joy And restoration hour by hour. Come Holy Spirit, come and touch My friend with grace and love. As they find new strength, uplift each moment fresh with rising faith And bright new vision, from above. Come Holy Spirit, come and bless my friend with joy and health As they wait in prayer, hold them close and safe, Within your embrace and riches bright with kingdom wealth. Come Holy Spirit, Come! Amen.
Father God,
I pray for my loved one in this hour of need. May they be aware of your hand holding them and encouraging them as they now rest and allow their healing to begin. Please heal them of the symptoms of this illness and touch and restore them right at the cause of this sickness. Lord help them to change areas in their lives that would aid healing.
Come renew not only their bodies but their minds and hearts also. May they find new peace.
Amen.
