Prayer for Healing of Body, Mind and Spirit

Dear Lord,

I know that there is no sickness

You cannot heal.

You know all things, You can do all things

and I know You love me very much.

With faith in Your promise

that whatever we ask in prayer,

You will grant us if it will be good for our soul,

I come before You to ask for the healing

of my body, mind, emotions and spirit.

Touch me now where I am hurting most.

Only You know what kind of healing

I need most right now.

Let the grace of Your divine love flow

and spread to the different parts

of my body reaching the inner recesses of my being.

Comfort me in my pain and anguish.

Correct any malfunctioning of my body organs.

Melt with Your healing love any abnormal growths.

Arrest all further spreading of all sick cells

and replace them with healthy cells.

Root out all unresolved hurts, resentments,

fears and feelings of despair and frustration.

Heal all painful memories and repercussions

of traumatic experiences.

Grant me the grace to accept this trial and suffering

as a share in your own sufferings

and offer this for the salvation

of my soul and those of my family and loved ones.

Forgive me for all my sins and fill me

with Your love, peace, joy, kindness and generosity.

Let me realize the deeper meaning

of my sickness and trial and lead me closer to You

as I find comfort in Your loving heart.

Let me find joy and peace amidst my suffering,

and with eyes of faith, see the blessing and victory

that await me. And then, dear Father,

after I have been healed, may I be a witness of

Your healing power and bring glory, honor and praise

to You, this I pray in Jesus  name Amen


HOLY HOUR PRAYERS

1. 

W We encourage you to come to prayer with an attitude of openness and expectancy. Come remember all the ways God has helped you in the past, and come expecting Him to help you even more in the future. Consider the “Holy  Hour" as an intensely loving "power encounter" with our heavenly Father. It 's a time of cleansing, deeper consecration and growth in understanding of the ways of God. Come accepting and expecting His love. Come prepared to experience His goodness and mercy. Come with a yielded heart that says simply, "Lord, change me." Come to be transformed, loosened up, healed and empowered……

 :
Opening Prayer

      " Loving heavenly Father we ask for Your Spirit  to come upon us now to enable us to pray. Increase our longing for You, and our longing for the salvation of people around the world. I pray with the psalmist and say  As the deer pants for streams of water, so my soul pants for You, O God. My soul thirsts for God,  for the living God. (Psalm 42:1-2)

2.Spiritual Warfare 

“For we are not contending against flesh and blood, but against the principalities, against the powers, against the world rulers of this present darkness, against the spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places. ” (Ephesians 6:12)

The Bible reminds us that there are negative spiritual forces that can exert a controlling influence in our lives and diminish our capacity to be free, open and loving people. The Bible also reminds us that we have been given authority to come against the power of the enemy (Mark 16:17).

  

At times in your life you may have inadvertently opened your spirit to some of those influences. It's time to close those doors. It is important when we pray to place ourselves specifically under the Lord's protection and take authority over any powers of evil.

Spiritual Warfare Prayer

      Heavenly Father, I come before You in praise, worship and adoration. Thank You for sending Your Son Jesus to give me life, to give me forgiveness, to give me a place in Your family. Thank You for sending the Holy Spirit to guide me and empower me in my daily life. Heavenly Father, open my eyes that I may see Your greatness, Your majesty, Your victory on my behalf.

   I place myself now under the cross of Jesus Christ and cover myself with the Precious Blood of Jesus.

       I surround myself with the light of Christ and say in the name of Jesus that nothing shall interfere with the Lord's work being accomplished in my life.

  Heavenly Father please show me any way that satan has a hold of my life. I let go of all those ways now.

 \ Any territory I have handed over to satan I now reclaim and place under the Lordship of Jesus Christ.

  In the name of Jesus Christ I seal  all members of my family, relatives, associates and all sources of supply in the Blood of Jesus Christ. In the name of Jesus Christ I forbid every spirit from any source from harming me in any way.

   In the name of Jesus Christ I reject the seductive lure of evil in all its forms and refuse to let sin have dominion over me. I reject satan and all his works and all his empty promises Heavenly Father, I ask forgiveness for myself, my friends, relatives and ancestors for calling upon powers that set themselves up in opposition to Jesus Christ.

    I renounce all openness to the occult, all false worship and all benefits from magical arts.

    I renounce every power apart from God and every form of worship that does not offer true honor to Jesus Christ

   In the name of Jesus, I break any curses that may be coming against me or
    my family, and stop the transmission of those curses through my ancestry.

   Lord , fill me with Your love to replace the fear; fill me with strength to replace the weakness, fill me with your wisdom in Jesus Name I pray Amen

SURRENDER : 

“And for all the work to be done by craftsmen, gold for the things of gold and silver for the things of silver. Who then will offer willingly, consecrating himself today to the LORD?" ” (1 Chronicles 29:5)

Our healing and empowerment begins when we surrender to Jesus. There is nothing more important in your spiritual life than to say "Yes" to Jesus with all your heart and soul, and then to allow the Holy Spirit to work out the meaning of that "Yes" in your life

The more we open up, yield, and simply allow ourselves to be drawn deeply into the Lord's love, the more our lives will come into right order. Will you say "Yes" to Jesus? You may have said "Yes" many times in your life, and yet today He may be calling you to go much deeper., Pray it now, from your heart. Pray not as a ritual, but with an opening of yourself to God.

Prayer :

Loving Father, I surrender to You today with all my heart and soul. Please come into my heart in a deeper way. I say "Yes," to You today. I open all the secret places of my heart to You and say, "Come on in." Jesus, You are Lord of my whole life. I believe in You and receive You as my Lord and Savior. I hold nothing back. Holy Spirit, bring me to a deeper conversion to the person of Jesus Christ. I surrender all to You: my health, my family, my resources, occupation, skills, relationships, time, successes and failures.

I surrender my understanding of how things ought to be, my choices and my will. I surrender to You the promises I kept and the promises I have failed to keep. I surrender my weaknesses and strengths to You. I surrender my emotions, my fears, my insecurities, my body, my career, my ambitions, my desires... Lord, I surrender my entire life to You, the past, the present and the future.,

         I give my Yes to You O Lord

Repentance 

But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus his Son cleanses us from all sin.” (1 John 1:7)

 Loving Father, I am sorry for all the ways I have offended You, knowingly or   unknowingly. I have sinned in thought, word and deed. I have sinned in what I     have done, and in what I have failed to do.

I come before You and ask for the grace of a deeply repentant heart. You know my innermost secrets.

I open my heart to You today and ask You to show me the ways I have blocked the flow of Your love. Forgive me, Father, for all my sins, faults and failures. For all the times I have gone astray and not chosen life, I am deeply sorry.

I repent of lack of faith, acting in fear instead of faith, unbelief in Your goodness, or lack of truly believing in Your love for me.

Lord God, I ask forgiveness for sins against purity: lust, fornication,  unclean books, movies and videos and lustful fantasies.  I turn away from these destructive habits, and  I turn to You to help me to say no to these sinful habits.

Forgive me, Lord. I repent of any compulsive, addictive behavior: drinking, drugs, gambling, sex, food and all other addictions. Thank You, Father, for setting me free. I repent of not taking care of my physical and emotional health: perhaps the unhealthy suppression of emotions. I make a commitment today to take care of myself.

I'm also sorry for the times I have hurt other people.

           I repent of any stealing, lying, deceiving and defrauding. I regret any lack of affirming others, brushing people off, coldness, unloving and inconsiderate behavior. I'm sorry for gossiping, betrayal of confidences and all breaches of faith.

I repent of any envy, hatred, resentment, unforgiveness, jealousy, criticizing or judging others, not receiving love in the way it is offered,

           and withholding expressions of love.

           Loving Father, For these offenses I beg pardon today. I accept Your forgiveness as You change my Heart O God, Amen

Forgiveness  

"And when you stand praying, if you hold anything against anyone, forgive him, so that your Father in heaven may forgive you your sins" (Mark 11:25). 

Alona : please sit down

Prayer of forgiveness

Loving Father, I choose to forgive everyone in my life, including myself, because You have forgiven me.

       Thank You, Lord, for this grace.

       I forgive myself for all my  faults and failures, I forgive myself for not being perfect,

       I accept myself and make a decision to stop picking on myself

       and being my own worst enemy.

       I also forgive any family member  for any negativity and unlove they  may have extended to me, knowingly or unknowingly.

For any abuse of any sort, for neglect, hurt, or negative action I received from any member of my family that  affected my life.  I release forgiveness now.

       I forgive anyone who has hurt me in any way; I forgive all the unfairness, and annoyance in my life from  others.  Heavenly Father, I now choose to forgive,  one friend or   authority figure who has hurt me the most. I now pray you bless them and do something special for each of them today.  Thank You, loving Lord, for setting me free. Amen

Praise and Worship

  “Bless the LORD, O my soul; and all that is within me, bless his holy name! ” (Psalm 103:1)

“O come, let us sing to the LORD; let us make a joyful noise to the rock of our salvation!  Let us come into his presence with thanksgiving; let us make a joyful noise to him with songs of praise! ” (Psalm 95:1-2)

Throughout scripture, God is very insistent about praise. When we praise we are acknowledging His supremacy and authority in our lives. Through praise we are stating that we are weak and He is strong. Praise makes room in our hearts for God's will to be done, and He is sovereign. Our awesome God,  who loves us so much , deserves our adoration and praise. His love for us is beyond comprehension..

There is something special about people who praise.. People of praise are people of faith. Their very lives state to the world that they trust their loving heavenly Father.

The very "sacrifice" of praise - working at it when we don't feel like it - draws us into the presence of the Lord. People of praise discover that this action of the heart, and the mind  increases our capacity to live and grow in love and holiness. Praise draws us into the abundant life in which God created us to live. Let us praise God in all things!  Please stand everyone as we join our choir in praising  God tonight..  for His Amazing Love ! in praising and worshiping our Great, mighty God  and Lord…

Petitions and Intercessions :

:“Let us then with confidence draw near to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need.” (Hebrews 4:16)

 “First of all, then, I urge that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for all men, ” (1 Timothy 2:1)

Say your petitions:  

“Therefore let us be grateful for receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, and thus let us offer to God acceptable worship, with reverence and awe;” (Hebrews 12:28)

“Giving thanks to the Father, who has qualified us to share in the inheritance of the saints in light.” (Colossians 1:12)
