We lift you up before the Father in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, our Healer and Redeemer, knowing that by His stripes we are healed. Your suffering is not unseen by our Lord, who bore our infirmities and carried our diseases. We stand in agreement with you, declaring that the same power that raised Christ from the dead is at work in your body, bringing restoration and wholeness.
The Scriptures remind us in **Psalm 103:2-3**, *"Praise Yahweh, my soul, and don’t forget all his benefits—who forgives all your iniquities and who heals all your diseases."* And in **Isaiah 53:5**, we are assured, *"But he was pierced for our transgressions. He was crushed for our iniquities. The punishment that brought our peace was on him; and by his wounds we are healed."* This is not merely a promise for the future but a present reality for those who trust in Him. We also recall the words of Jesus in **Matthew 8:17**, *"that it might be fulfilled which was spoken through Isaiah the prophet, saying, 'He took our infirmities and bore our diseases.'"*
Yet we must also consider whether there is any unconfessed sin, unresolved bitterness, or lack of trust in the Lord that may hinder your healing. The Scriptures urge us in **James 5:15-16**, *"The prayer of faith will save the sick, and the Lord will raise him up. If he has committed sins, he will be forgiven. Confess your offenses to one another and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The insistent prayer of a righteous person is powerfully effective."* We encourage you to examine your heart before the Lord, repent of anything that may grieve the Holy Spirit, and walk in obedience to His Word.
We also urge you to seek wisdom in this season. Have you consulted godly medical professionals who can provide care while trusting the Lord for your healing? Proverbs 11:14 tells us, *"Where there is no wise guidance, the nation falls, but in the multitude of counselors there is victory."* Do not neglect the means the Lord has provided, whether through medicine, therapy, or rest, while placing your ultimate faith in Him.
Now, let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus, lifting up our brother/sister who is experiencing pain and discomfort in their neck, shoulder, and arm. Lord, You are the Great Physician, the One who formed their body in their mother’s womb and knows every nerve, muscle, and bone. We ask that You stretch out Your hand and touch them with Your healing power. Let every nerve be restored, every muscle relaxed, and every joint aligned according to Your perfect design. Remove all numbness and tingling, and let Your peace, which surpasses all understanding, guard their heart and mind in Christ Jesus.
We rebuke this pain and discomfort in the name of Jesus, commanding it to flee, for it has no authority over a child of God. We declare that the blood of Jesus covers them, and no weapon formed against them shall prosper. Lord, if there is any area of their life that needs surrender or repentance, reveal it to them by Your Holy Spirit. Give them the strength to walk in obedience and the faith to trust You completely.
We thank You, Father, for Your goodness and mercy. We thank You that You are working all things together for their good, even in this season of physical trial. Strengthen them, Lord, and let them feel Your presence in a mighty way. May this time of waiting draw them closer to You, deepening their dependence on Your grace.
We ask all these things in the powerful and matchless name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
Stand firm in your faith, dear one. The Lord is near to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit. Trust in Him, for He has not forgotten you. Keep your eyes fixed on Jesus, the author and finisher of your faith, and let this trial be a testimony of His faithfulness. We are praying with you and believe that the Lord will bring you complete healing in His perfect timing.
