We join with you in lifting up this dear sister before the Lord, and we are grateful that you have invoked the holy and powerful name of Jesus in this request, for it is only through Him that we have access to the Father and by which we are saved. As Scripture declares, *"There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven that is given among men, by which we must be saved!"* (Acts 4:12, WEB). Your faith in calling upon the name of Jesus is a testament to your trust in His authority and love, and we stand with you in this prayer.
The Word of God assures us that our Lord is a God who heals. In Jeremiah 30:17, He proclaims, *"For I will restore health to you, and I will heal you of your wounds, says Yahweh."* And in James 5:14-15, we are instructed, *"Is any among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the assembly, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord, and the prayer of faith will heal him who is sick, and the Lord will raise him up."* We claim these promises over this sister’s life, trusting that God is faithful to His Word.
Yet, we also recognize that healing may come in different forms and timing according to God’s perfect will. Sometimes, He heals instantly, while other times, He walks with us through the process, strengthening us in our weakness. The Apostle Paul reminds us in 2 Corinthians 12:9-10, *"He has said to me, 'My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.' Most gladly therefore I will rather glory in my weaknesses, that the power of Christ may rest on me. Therefore I take pleasure in weaknesses, in injuries, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses, for Christ’s sake. For when I am weak, then am I strong."* If this season of weakness is part of God’s refining work, we pray that she would experience His grace in abundance and that her faith would be strengthened as she leans on Him.
We also encourage this sister to seek wisdom in caring for her body, which is the temple of the Holy Spirit (1 Corinthians 6:19-20). This includes seeking medical attention if she hasn’t already, as God often uses doctors and medicine as instruments of His healing. Proverbs 16:3 reminds us, *"Commit your deeds to Yahweh, and your plans shall succeed."* Let her commit her health into His hands, trusting that He will guide her steps.
Now, let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You with hearts full of faith, lifting up our sister who is in need of Your healing touch. You are Jehovah-Rapha, the Lord who heals, and we ask that You stretch out Your hand over her body and restore her to full health. Remove every sickness, every weakness, and every infirmity that is causing her distress. Let Your healing power flow through her, renewing her strength and vitality. Lord, if there is any underlying cause—whether physical, emotional, or spiritual—reveal it to her and grant her the wisdom to address it in a way that honors You.
We pray that You would surround her with Your peace, which surpasses all understanding (Philippians 4:7), guarding her heart and mind in Christ Jesus. Strengthen her faith during this time, and let her testimony of Your faithfulness be a light to others. If this trial is meant to draw her closer to You, we pray that she would seek Your face with all her heart, finding comfort in Your presence.
Father, we also ask that You provide her with godly support—whether through family, friends, or her church community—to encourage her and walk with her through this season. May she feel Your love tangibly through the care of others.
We rebuked every spirit of infirmity and weakness in the mighty name of Jesus, commanding it to leave her body now, for greater is He who is in her than he who is in the world (1 John 4:4). Let every cell, every organ, and every system in her body align with Your perfect design, functioning as You intended.
Lord, we trust in Your sovereign will, knowing that You work all things together for the good of those who love You (Romans 8:28). Whether You choose to heal her instantly or walk with her through this process, we pray that Your name would be glorified, and that she would experience Your love in a deeper way.
We thank You, Father, for hearing our prayer. We believe that You are at work, and we give You all the praise and honor. In the mighty and matchless name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, we pray. Amen.
Finally, sister, we encourage you to continue seeking the Lord in prayer and in His Word. Meditate on Psalm 103:2-4, which says, *"Praise Yahweh, my soul, and don’t forget all his benefits; who forgives all your sins; who heals all your diseases; who redeems your life from destruction; who crowns you with loving kindness and tender mercies."* Cling to these truths, and let them anchor your heart as you wait on the Lord. He is faithful, and He will never leave you nor forsake you (Deuteronomy 31:6). Keep us updated on how we can continue to pray for you.
