We lift up this dear close relative before the throne of grace, asking for Your mighty hand of healing to rest upon them. Father, 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 promise from Jeremiah 30:17, "For I will restore health to you, and I will heal you of your wounds, says Yahweh." Let this be a testimony of Your faithfulness and power in their life.
Lord, we ask that You not only restore their physical strength but also grant them a few more years to walk in the purpose You have for them. May this season of recovery be a time of drawing nearer to You, of reflecting on Your goodness, and of surrendering their life fully to Your will. We pray that if they have not yet placed their trust in Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior, that this time of vulnerability would soften their heart to receive the gift of salvation. Open their eyes to see their need for You, and let them experience the peace that comes from knowing You as their Redeemer. Acts 4:12 reminds us, "There is salvation in none other, for neither is there any other name under heaven, that is given among men, by which we must be saved."
We rebuke any spirit of fear, doubt, or despair that may be trying to take hold during this time. We declare that Your perfect love casts out all fear, and we stand on Your Word that says, "By His stripes, we are healed" (Isaiah 53:5). Let Your healing virtue flow through every cell, organ, and system in their body, bringing complete restoration. We also pray for wisdom and discernment for the medical team treating them, that You would guide their hands and decisions according to Your perfect plan.
Father, we ask that You surround this family with Your peace that surpasses all understanding. Comfort them in moments of anxiety, strengthen them in times of weariness, and remind them that You are their ever-present help in trouble. May this trial draw them closer to You and to one another, fostering a deeper dependence on Your grace.
We pray all these things in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, the Author and Perfecter of our faith, who lives and reigns with You and the Holy Spirit, one God, forever and ever. Amen.
