Healing Prayer Template

We have access to multitudes through social media, email and video chatting. While there are benefits and backfires to these technological interactions, we can communicate the same powerful love of God to a virtual world in which these multitudes have settled. As communication methods are on the rise, mediums of ministering, encouraging, edifying, and releasing the kingdom are now at our fingertips.

I have seen emails come in the system asking for prayer for those who are in critical condition. I typed a prayer for healing in response. The next day, the first email I read was uncharacteristically joyful and began with: GOD IS A MIRACLE GOD! Both men were healed and doctors were stunned, baffled, and in awe of the sudden recovery!

Without faith, it is impossible to please God. Faith comes by hearing and hearing by the Word. God's Word is Spirit and can bend reality to conform to His perfect will, so that all men can know salvation (Greek: sozo; saved, healed, and delivered). These New Covenant rights reflect the completed work of the cross. Sins, like our sicknesses, have been forgiven, as our bodies have been healed. All bought, once and once for all, by the Blood of Jesus: the God-man!

Below is a template for a prayer of healing you can email or message those who are sick. There is no formula... Just faith! Feel free to adjust for personal prayer, like the name of the victim of infirmity and the condition of which they suffer. Whenever Jesus commissioned someone to preach the gospel, He commanded them to heal the sick. You are called to do the same out of love!

Dear Lord Jesus,

We thank you that You are the Word (John 1:1-5, 14) and You are the same yesterday, today, and forevermore (Hebrews 13:8). You didn’t do anything without seeing the Father do it first (John 5:19-20), and, by that, you knew the kingdom and will of God. You demonstrated that kingdom by healing all those that were sick (Matthew4:23-25, 15:30-31, Acts 10:38). You commissioned Your disciples to do as You did (Matthew 10:7-8, Mark 16:15-20, John 14:12). As You endured the cross, You not only took our sins, but by Your stripes we were healed (Isaiah 53:4-5, I Peter 2:24).

Your unchanging Word says that the prayer of faith shall save the sick (James 5:15) and that when two agree on earth concerning anything we ask, the Father in heaven will do it (Matthew 18:19).

We agree for complete healing in Jesus’ name! We command the body to come into perfect alignment just as you created it to be and we bind all sickness and pain in the name of Jesus Christ (Matthew 18:18).

You established these promises in the Word. We thank you for complete healing and the testimony to follow! We thank you for the New Covenant that you have given Your people through the finished work of the cross and Your resurrection! We thank you that your kingdom is empty of sickness, infirmities, diseases, and illness. We thank you Your kingdom is righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit (Romans 14:17). You came to give life and life in abundance (John 10:10).

Just as you said, “It is finished,” we receive the complete work by faith in Jesus’ name-

Amen
