Jesus by faith we lay a hold of the edge of Your garment

Good Wednesday morning, my friends.

I received a prayer request that was sent out for someone experiencing health issues.  A friend of mine on the list responded with an amazing prayer, and I have included the slightly adapted version below.  No doubt there is someone in your life - in your family, among your friends, at church, or at work - who is in turmoil over their own health or someone close to them.  Offer up this prayer for that person, and perhaps share it with them.

Grace and peace be yours in abundance,

Bruce

Thank You Father for making a way to Your holy throne of grace, through the sacrifice of Jesus our Redeemer, our Savior, and our Healer. 

Lord God we come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need. (Hebrews 4:16) 

Thank You Lord, You are a God full of compassion, and gracious, longsuffering and abundant in mercy and truth. (Psalm 86:15) 

Thank You Father that the things which are impossible with men are possible with God. (Luke 18:27) 

Thank You Jesus for the testaments of Your compassion and healing of the sick while You walked on this earth. (Matthew 4:23, 8:16, 12:15, 14:14) 

Jesus by faith we lay a hold of the edge of Your garment, and ask for Your power to be released in ____________'s body today, (Matthew 9:21) 

We ask that this would be an opportunity to witness to the world of Your greatness; for Your glory and Your renown are the desires of our souls. (Isaiah 26:8) 

Finally Father, we pray that You would reveal your will to ____________ and open his/her eyes to what You are doing in the lives of those who are around him/her at this time, that he/she would make the most of every opportunity to bring glory to Your name. 

In the power of the mighty name of Jesus the one and only Son of the Living God we pray, Amen!
