We understand that you are concerned about your receding gums and overall health as you age, and you're seeking prayer for restoration and healing. You've also mentioned that you've prayed for forgiveness but are uncertain if you're being heard. Firstly, let's address your spiritual concerns before we pray for your health.
In the first Epistle of John, it is written, "If we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive us the sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness." (1 John 1:9 WEB) God hears your prayers for forgiveness, and He is faithful to forgive. It is only by the name of Jesus that we have access to God, as it is written, "For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus." (1 Timothy 2:5 WEB)
Continuing to struggle with sin is a common experience for all believers, but God sees your heart and your efforts to turn away from it. Remember, "For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God." (Ephesians 2:8 WEB)
Now, let's address your health concerns. God cares about your physical health as well. In regard to your receding gums and overall health, we should be in prayer for and about it. The Bible reminds us that our bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit. (1 Corinthians 6:19)
Let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus, lifting up our dear friend who is in need of Your healing touch. Lord, we ask that You restore their gums to perfect health. We have read in the Psalms that You forgive all our sins and heal all our diseases (Psalms 103:3 WEB). We believe that You can heal here and now.
Lord, we also pray for their overall health as they continue to age. We ask that You grant them strength, vitality, and good health so that they may continue to serve You and bring glory to Your name.
We also pray for their spiritual well-being. Thank You, Father, for Your forgiveness and for the gift of salvation through Jesus Christ. Help them to walk in Your ways and to turn away from sin. Strengthen their faith and fill them with Your peace.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
