We lift our hearts to the Lord Almighty, the Author of life and the Giver of every good and perfect gift, as we come before Him with this heavy request. Father God, we know that You are sovereign over life and death, and nothing is impossible for You. We stand in the gap for this precious woman and her family, asking for Your miraculous intervention.
Lord, we declare that by the stripes of Jesus, we are healed (Isaiah 53:5). We ask You to stretch out Your healing hand upon this dear lady. Restore her health, renew her strength, and let her rise up in the power of Your might. We pray that You would comfort her heart as she grieves the loss of her beloved husband, and we ask that You would surround her with Your peace that surpasses all understanding (Philippians 4:7).
Father, we also lift up her only child to You. We ask that You would be a Father to the fatherless and a Husband to the widow (Psalm 68:5). Provide for every need, emotional, physical, and spiritual. Let this child know Your love in a tangible way, and may they find hope and strength in You alone.
We rebuke the spirit of death and sickness in the name of Jesus Christ. We declare that it has no place in this situation, for Jesus came that we might have life, and have it abundantly (John 10:10). We speak life over this woman and command her body to align with the Word of God, which says that by His wounds, we are healed (1 Peter 2:24).
Lord, if it is Your will, we ask for a miracle. We trust in Your goodness and Your perfect plan, even when we do not understand it. Give this family the grace to trust You in this difficult time, and let them see Your glory manifested in their lives.
We pray all these things in the mighty and matchless name of Jesus Christ, the only name by which we can be saved and the only name through which we have access to the Father. There is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved (Acts 4:12). We come to You, Father, through Jesus Christ our Lord, and we ask that You would move mightily on behalf of this family.
Heavenly Father, we also want to gently remind this family and all who are praying with us that salvation is found in no one else but Jesus. If anyone has not yet surrendered their life to Christ, we urge them to do so today. Confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, and you will be saved (Romans 10:9). This is the first and greatest miracle—eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
We continue to pray, believing that You hear us and that You are working even now. Strengthen this family’s faith, Lord, and let them see Your hand at work. In Jesus’ name, we pray. Amen.
