Healing for God's Glory

Father, I'm praying for (name one or more) and others in my circle of family and friends in need of Your healing touch...

For these who are sick, have medical conditions, or have suffered accidents, I ask You to look upon them with Your mercy and compassion. I know our days are numbered and sometimes You have a different plan, but You have taught us that sometimes we don't have what's needed because we haven't asked, and so I ask for healing. May Your Spirit help me when I don't know what to ask, and above all, may Your will be done. (Romans 9:15; Psalm 139:16; James 4:2b; Romans 8:26; Matthew 6:10)

Heal those with the personal faith to be healed, and those whose friends who have the faith to ask on their behalf. (Matthew 9:20–22; 8:5–13)

If any are ill as a consequence of sin, I ask You to be merciful, to forgive and heal—as You healed the paralyzed man whose friends lowered him through the roof. Sometimes sickness or a condition may be caused by an evil spirit; if that is the case, set them free. At times disease comes as discipline; where that is true, I ask that in Your love and mercy, You grant repentance and healing. Sometimes an illness is meant to bring You glory; may it be so for these I'm praying for. (Exodus 15:26; Psalm 25:6; 2 Timothy 2:25; Matthew 17:15–18; Luke 13:11–13; John 11:4)

In Jesus' name, Amen.
