A Special Prayer

Someone gave me this prayer to say when I had lung cancer.  I am still saying it every morning, for myself and for others, and it means so much to me that I want to share it with everyone I know:

Heavenly Father, I call on you right now in a special way.  It is through your power that I was created.  Every breath I take every morning I wake and every moment of every hour I live under your power.  Father, I ask you now to touch me with that same power.  For if you created me from nothing, you can certainly recreate me.  Fill me with the healing power of your spirit.  Cast out anything that should not be in me.  Mend what is broken.  Root out any unproductive cells.  Open my blocked arteries or veins and rebuild any damaged areas.  Remove all inflammation and cleanse any infection.  Let the warmth of your healing love pass through my body to make new any unhealthy areas so that my body will function the way you created it to function.  And, Father, restore me to full health in mind and body so that I may serve you the rest of my life.  I ask this through Christ our Lord.  Amen.

  1. Thank you for sharing the prayer....and i claim it for any physical, mental/emotional and spiritual damage for myself and my family.

    In a poem i once memorized the final line is "to each an end and then a new beginning."...like the "problem" did its work and so can end, to bring about the new beginning.:) mk
