We come before the Lord together, lifting up this request for healing from osteoarthritis pain and inflammation. Father God, we know that You are the Great Physician, the One who heals all our diseases (Psalm 103:2-3). We ask for Your divine touch upon this body, that the pain and inflammation would be eased and that strength and mobility would be restored. Lord, we trust in Your power to bring relief and comfort, for You are near to the brokenhearted and save those who have a contrite spirit (Psalm 34:18).
We also recognize that physical suffering can weigh heavily on the heart and mind. We pray for peace that surpasses all understanding to guard this heart and mind in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:7). May there be a deep sense of Your presence and comfort during this time of struggle. Help this one to cast all anxieties on You, knowing that You care deeply (1 Peter 5:7).
Lord, we ask for wisdom for the medical professionals involved in this care. Guide their hands and minds as they seek to provide treatment and relief. May they be instruments of Your healing grace. We also pray for patience and perseverance, knowing that healing may come in ways we do not expect or on a timeline different from our own.
Father, we rebuke the spirit of infirmity in the name of Jesus. We declare that by His stripes, we are healed (Isaiah 53:5). We stand on Your promises and trust in Your faithfulness. May this trial draw this one closer to You, deepening faith and reliance on Your strength.
We pray all these things in the mighty and precious name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, for it is in His name alone that we have access to You and find healing and hope. Amen.
