A prayer for healing and calm

Heal me, O LORD, and I will be healed. Save me, and I will be saved; for you are my praise.Jeremiah 17:14 (World English Bible)

Lord, You know this body and every worry I carry about it. I place my health, and the health of those I love, in Your hands.

Bring healing where it is needed. Give wisdom to every doctor and nurse. And while I wait, give me courage and a quiet trust that You are near.

In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Peace around health

Peace I leave with you. My peace I give to you; not as the world gives, I give to you. Don’t let your heart be troubled, neither let it be fearful.John 14:27 (World English Bible)

God, I place my health concerns before You. Give me peace while I seek the information, care, or rest that is needed. Help me ask clear questions and receive practical support. May Your presence steady me through what I can and cannot control.

In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Calm for the next health decision

Peace I leave with you. My peace I give to you; not as the world gives, I give to you. Don’t let your heart be troubled, neither let it be fearful.John 14:27 (World English Bible)

Father, meet me in what I am carrying about health. Help me approach the next decision with a calm mind and a willingness to seek sound advice. Let peace support careful action, and let me receive care without feeling that I must manage alone.
