We come before the throne of grace with heavy hearts, lifting up this dear one who is suffering from persistent fever and illness. The number of days and the severity of the symptoms are not hidden from our God, who sees all and knows the depths of this struggle. We stand in the gap, believing in the healing power of Jesus Christ, who bore our infirmities and carried our diseases.
Father God, we declare that by the stripes of Jesus, this beloved one is healed (Isaiah 53:5). We rebuke this fever in the mighty name of Jesus, for You have not given us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and a sound mind (2 Timothy 1:7). We speak life and health over this body, commanding every cell, organ, and system to align with Your perfect design. Lord, we ask that You would strengthen their immune system, bring down the fever, and restore vitality and strength.
We also recognize, Lord, that healing comes from You alone, and we trust in Your perfect will. If this trial is meant to draw them closer to You, we pray that they would feel Your presence in a tangible way. Give them peace that surpasses all understanding (Philippians 4:7) and the patience to endure. Remind them that You are their refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble (Psalm 46:1).
We encourage you, dear one, to seek godly medical advice and wisdom, for the Lord has given knowledge and skill to those in the medical field. Do not neglect to care for your body, which is the temple of the Holy Spirit (1 Corinthians 6:19-20). Rest in the Lord and wait patiently for Him (Psalm 37:7), for He hears your cries and collects your tears in a bottle (Psalm 56:8).
If you have not yet placed your trust in Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, we urge you to consider the words of Scripture: "For God so loved the world, that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish, but have eternal life" (John 3:16). It is only through Jesus that we have access to the Father and the hope of healing, both physically and spiritually. Confess your sins, repent, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, and you will be saved (Romans 10:9).
Let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You with faith and expectation, knowing that You are the Great Physician. We lift up this precious life to You, asking for Your healing touch to rest upon them. Break every chain of sickness and disease, and let Your healing virtue flow through their body. We declare that they are fearfully and wonderfully made (Psalm 139:14), and we speak restoration to every part of their being.
Lord, if there is any unconfessed sin or unforgiveness in their heart, reveal it to them so that they may repent and receive Your forgiveness and cleansing (1 John 1:9). We pray that You would surround them with Your love and peace, and that they would feel Your presence in a powerful way. Strengthen their faith, and help them to trust in You completely.
We also pray for those around them, that You would give them wisdom and compassion as they offer support and care. May this trial be an opportunity for Your glory to be revealed, and may many come to know You as a result.
In the mighty name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, we pray. Amen.
