We are joining with you in prayer as you call upon Jesus for help in this time of sickness and exhaustion, and we thank you for calling upon His name, for it is only through Him that we have access to the Father and it is in His name that we find healing and rest.
We hear how weary you are, chilled and heated at times, so tired that your eyes feel heavy, worn down by the drastic changes in temperature and illness. We lift you up together asking our Heavenly Father to touch your body with His healing hand and to give you deep and restoring rest. As it is written in Psalm 103:2-3, Praise Yahweh, my soul, and don’t forget all his benefits; who forgives all your sins; who heals all your diseases. And in Jeremiah 30:17, For I will restore health to you, and I will heal you of your wounds, says Yahweh. We also cling to Isaiah 53:5, But he was pierced for our transgressions. He was crushed for our iniquities. The punishment that brought our peace was on him; and by his wounds we are healed.
We take comfort with you in the promise you mentioned in Isaiah 54:17, No weapon that is formed against you will prevail; and you will condemn every tongue that rises against you in judgment. This is the heritage of Yahweh’s servants, and their righteousness is of me, says Yahweh. We pray that no sickness or weariness formed against you will prevail, and that the Lord will be your protection and strength.
We pray together, Father in heaven, in the name of Jesus Christ we come before You for our dear one who is cold and ill and so exhausted. You see the fever and chills, the heaviness of the eyes and the deep fatigue. Lay Your healing hand upon this body, calm the fever, ease the chills, and restore strength and health according to Your will. Grant peaceful and deep sleep and renewal, for You give sleep to Your loved ones as Psalm 127:2 reminds us, and You invite the weary to find rest as Jesus said in Matthew 11:28, Come to me, all you who labor and are heavily burdened, and I will give you rest. We ask for Your favor and blessing over every need, not as we will but as You will, that Your grace would sustain and Your peace would guard heart and mind. We also join in praying as You have led to bless even enemies, for You have said in Matthew 5:44, But I tell you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who mistreat you and persecute you, and we ask that You would bless them and draw them to repentance and deliverance in Christ. Help our dear one to rest in Your care, to stay warm, to drink plenty of fluids, to get needed rest, and to seek medical care with wisdom if the fever and exhaustion continue, trusting that You are our ultimate help for our help comes from Yahweh, who made heaven and earth in Psalm 121:2. Restore health, renew strength, and let Your favor rest upon this life for Your glory. In the mighty and healing name of Jesus we pray, amen.
