We come before the Lord with heavy hearts, lifting up your pain and discomfort to Him who is the Great Physician. The Bible tells us in Psalm 34:18-19, "Yahweh is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves those who have a crushed spirit. Many are the afflictions of the righteous, but Yahweh delivers him out of them all." We know that the Lord sees your suffering and is close to you in this time of need.
Father God, we ask that You would touch this dear one’s mouth with Your healing hand. You created every part of our bodies, and You know the intricate details of our teeth, gums, and nerves. We pray that You would bring relief from this pain and accelerate the healing process. Lord, we ask that You would soothe the soreness and restore strength to their mouth. Give them patience and peace as they wait for Your healing touch.
We also pray for wisdom for the medical professionals involved in their care. Guide the hands of the dentists and specialists, that they may provide the right treatment and relief. May Your peace, which surpasses all understanding, guard their heart and mind in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:7).
In James 5:14-15, we are reminded, "Is any among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the church, 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 stand in faith, believing that You hear our prayers and will answer according to Your will.
We rebuke any spirit of fear or anxiety that may be trying to take hold in this situation. We declare that God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and self-control (2 Timothy 1:7). We trust in Your goodness and Your perfect timing.
May this time of healing draw them closer to You, Lord. Help them to lean on You for strength and comfort, knowing that You are their refuge and fortress (Psalm 91:2). We pray all these things in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, for it is only through Him that we have access to Your throne of grace. Amen.
