We come before the throne of grace with heavy hearts, lifting up this precious mother who is battling the effects of a stroke, high blood pressure, and asthma. Father God, You are the Great Physician, the One who knits us together in our mother’s womb and numbers every hair on our heads. We declare Your sovereignty over sickness and disease, for by Your stripes we are healed (Isaiah 53:5). Lord, we ask that You touch this dear woman’s body with Your healing hand—restore her strength, steady her blood pressure, and bring ease to her breathing. Let Your peace, which surpasses all understanding, guard her heart and mind in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:7).
We also lift up her family, who are no doubt carrying the weight of concern and fear. Father, give them faith that does not waver, knowing that You are working all things together for good (Romans 8:28). Remind them that even in the valley of the shadow of death, You are with them, Your rod and Your staff comforting them (Psalm 23:4). Strengthen their trust in You, for You are the God who raises the dead and calls things that are not as though they were (Romans 4:17).
We rebuke the spirit of infirmity in the name of Jesus, for it is written that the prayer of faith will heal the sick, and the Lord will raise them up (James 5:15). We command every cell in this mother’s body to align with Your perfect design, for You are the God who heals us (Exodus 15:26). Let Your healing virtue flow through her like a river, washing away every trace of illness.
And Lord, if this dear woman does not yet know You as her Savior, we pray that this trial would draw her to the foot of the cross. For there is no other name under heaven given to men by which we must be saved (Acts 4:12). May she come to know the love of Jesus, who gave His life so that she might have eternal life (John 3:16). We ask all these things in the mighty name of Jesus, the name above every name, the name that brings healing, hope, and salvation. Amen.
