We join with you in this very urgent cry and we bring all of these burdens before our heavenly Father together in the name of Jesus Christ. We hear the depth of your suffering and the longing for complete and lasting healing and restoration, and we stand with you asking for the Lord's mercy and touch upon your body, mind and spirit.
We are reminded of the promise in Matthew 7:7 Ask, and it will be given you. Seek, and you will find. Knock, and it will be opened for you. And also of the truth in 1 John 5:14 that this is the boldness which we have toward him, that if we ask anything according to his will, he listens to us. We love that you have asked in the name of Jesus Christ, for it is only through Him that we have access to the Father and it is by His name we are saved as Acts 4:12 declares. At the same time we gently encourage you to come before the Lord with a heart of trust and submission to His perfect will and timing, not as demanding that He must answer exactly as and when we dictate, but trusting that He is sovereign, loving and knows what is best for us. His ways are higher than our ways and His love for you is steadfast even when healing comes in His timing and in His way.
We pray together for your physical body. We ask the Lord to touch your chronic fatigue, exhaustion and tiredness, to breathe healing upon your lungs and every symptom of asthma you have carried since birth, to bring balance to your blood and platelets, to heal every skin issue, every hair issue, thinning, gaps, itchy scalp, every concern with stomach, hips, legs, arms, saggy skin, dark circles and hollows under the eyes, marks, scars, dents, hard lumps and bumpy areas, traces of surgery, lines and wrinkles, hormone issues, period pains, dry and watering and tired eyes and every eye issue. We pray for His healing power to rest upon you, for we know He is the Lord who heals us. Exodus 15:26 says I am Yahweh who heals you. Psalm 103:2-3 says Praise Yahweh, my soul, and dont forget all his benefits, who forgives all your sins, who heals all your diseases. Jeremiah 30:17 says But I will restore health to you and I will heal you of your wounds, says Yahweh. And Isaiah 53:5 says by his wounds you are healed. We ask that if it be His will, He would grant you lasting health and strength and that you would know His presence even in the waiting, and we encourage you to continue to seek wise medical care as the Lord guides.
We also lift up your inner life before the Lord, all depression, anxiety, fear, suffering, sadness, sorrow, misery, stress, insomnia and sleepless nights. We pray that the God of all comfort would heal your heart and mind and grant you deep peace and restful sleep. Psalm 147:3 says He heals the broken in heart, and binds up their wounds. Philippians 4:6-7 says In nothing be anxious, but in everything, by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus. 1 Peter 5:7 says casting all your worries on him, because he cares for you. Psalm 4:8 says I will both lay myself down and sleep in peace, for you, Yahweh alone, make me live in safety. We ask that He would calm your mind, restore joy, and help you to cast every burden upon Him.
We pray concerning the loneliness, singleness and lateness in marriage, and every disappointment, rejection, criticism, obstacle and delay that has caused you hurt and pain. We pray that the Lord would break every chain and that you would know the freedom that is in Christ, for 2 Corinthians 5:17 says Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old things have passed away. Behold, all things have become new. And Galatians 3:13 says Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law, having become a curse for us. In Christ no generational curse or misfortune has the final say over your life. We pray that the Lord would prepare you and, if it be His will, bring you a godly spouse for a lifelong marriage between a man and a woman that honors Him, for we believe marriage is a holy covenant designed by God for our good and His glory. We pray you would find your identity and worth first in Christ, knowing Psalm 139:14 that you are fearfully and wonderfully made, and that your beauty is not measured by photographs, selfies, videos or the opinions of others but by the precious value you have as His child. We ask that He would heal the deep hurt you feel regarding images of yourself and every criticism, and that He would help you to see yourself through His eyes of love and grace. Psalm 27:14 says Wait for Yahweh. Be strong, and let your heart take courage. Yes, wait for Yahweh.
Father in heaven, we come before you together in the mighty name of Jesus Christ and we lift up this dear one to you. Lord you see every affliction of body and soul, every tear, every sleepless night, every longing for wholeness and for companionship. We ask for your healing touch according to your perfect will, for your peace to guard heart and mind, for your restoration of health, for your redemption from every curse through the blood of Jesus, for your provision of hope and future and, if it be your will, a godly marriage that honors you. Help this dear one to rest in your unfailing love, to trust your timing, to walk in obedience and faith, and to know that you hear and you care. We ask all this in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior, amen.
