Prayer for an Infant

I pray right now, that you would heal her little body. Keep the family calm. Cancel their anxieties. I pray for supernatural healing over her, that you would pour out your Holy Spirit’s healing on this little baby’s delicate frame. This gorgeous infant that you’ve created, so beautifully, in her mother’s womb, is meant to thrive! Thank you for all her days, which you have numbered. Bring supernatural healing for her and restoration for whatever is going on in her little body! May she be surrounded with your angels. Thank you for being a God who hears us when we pray. You are sovereign! You are holy! You are mighty to save! May this child to healed. I want this to just be part of her testimony of faith that she will share with others one day.

In Jesus’s name, I thank you for being the author and perfecter of our faith. Greater faith is being built, every day, inside of us. I praise you, Lord, and thank you for “…by your stripes, we are healed.” (Isaiah 53:5) Make all of her organs are whole. Breathe your life into her! I pray that her body would be able to function like the body is designed to function, with good health.

I pray against the schemes of the enemy, that you would bind up the workers of evil, that there would be no foothold of any kind in this family‘s life that could have room for destruction. Continue to surround them with songs of praise! I pray that we would be able to report miraculous occurrences in Jesus’ name. Jesus, thank you for bringing peace. Grant the doctors wisdom to respond quickly to the needs of the situation. I ask that the medical professionals would be able to help efficiently as is desperately needed.

Thank you for the beautiful couple that you brought together in a wonderful marriage. The fruit of their marriage brought forth this baby. Bless the child’s father and give him strength beyond measure. Remind him of his calling to “…set the captives free.” (Isaiah 61:1) Set a holy fire of creativity inside of him. For the child’s mother, fill her with reassurance of God’s promises, that they never fail. Nothing is too hard for you, Lord. Your arm extends to the darkest of situations. Your heart has an endless supply of compassion for all who call on your name with sincerity. Forgiveness is so close, if people just but ask for it.

I am reminded of a time when a sister in the faith had a vision of the veil separating earth from Heaven. She said it was much closer than people realized. It was within touching distance, an arms length. Lord, I want to live with deeper intentionality. Every day is such a gift and I pray for the people around me to be inspired to seek your holiness, to desire to worship more. Thank you for the friends that you have given me. Embrace each one of them with your perfect kindness, gentleness, and love.

Submission to your will is not always easy. However, disobedience has worse consequences. I pray for the bride of Christ, the church, to not be blinded by things that hold no eternal value. We want to see you, Lord, and behold your beloved presence. I rest in your power, your purpose, and your “perfect love” which “casts out fear.” (1 John 4:18) Thank you for all the good and beautiful things in the world. The good, with time, will conquer all the darkness that knows its times is dwindling near to an end.

Amen. 🙏
