In the Bible, there are some accounts of relationships that worth emulating. For instance, the relationship between Jonathan and David.
That of Jesus Christ, Mary and Martha. The relationship between Jesus Christ & Lazarus, even when Lazarus was found dead.
These are relationships that worth knowing and at the same time put in practice. You know what Jonathan did when his friend David was in trouble. He rise up and showed compassion.
At the cross, where our Lord Jesus Christ was crucified, Mary & Martha stood besides His grave to mourn is temporary demise. They were there pouring their hearts out.
When Lazarus was found dead, his relatives went to inform the closest friends of Jesus and told them to let Jesus know about the death of His friend Lazarus. Jesus intervened and Lazarus was brought back to life.
You see, in all the relationships mentioned above, there were sacrifices and compassion over the health status of their friend.
Do you have such a friend who is that close to you like a blood brother or sister? As for me, I have one and he’s like a confidant to me.
A week won’t pass-by without hearing from him. If I didn’t call him, I’ll make sure I chat him up either on Facebook or WhatsApp.
But in all of these, I made sure I put him in my prayers because I know that prayer works. I know you may ask for the reason why I do this. But the answer is straight & simple, he played a vital role in my life.
With that being said, some friend(s) is like a brother or sister, especially those who care and support you in the time of need. Those who loved you unconditionally, when all dejected you.
Hence, such an individual, when in distress, needs your prayers, even though financially you’re not upright, God understands.
Committing him or her into the hands of God usually makes a difference. Remember, Bible made us to know that the fervent prayers of a righteous man or woman availeth much.
Make sure the HOLY SPIRIT is with you before making your prayers so that your prayers can be answered.
It’s important to equally know that the Holy Spirit helps us build our faith in God, and He wants us to come in faith. They are the prerequisite for an answered prayers (Holiness & Faith).
As a Christian, whenever you’re in spirit, you will know. There is this confidence you have when appearing before Jesus Christ as your personal Lord and saviour. Have you observed that before?
With that being said, let’s consider a prayer for healing of a friend. Let’s pray.
Father, according to your Word, we are meant to understand that whenever we asked, it shall be given to us and whenever we prayer, you as our Heavenly father will answer us.
Thus, your Word made us also to know that your mercies will be our portions and you are God of second chance.
However, if there is any way or forms by which my friend has sinned against you knowingly or unknowingly, oh Lord forgive him or her and show forth your mercy over his or health.
You said, we will fulfill our years here on earth with good health and sound mind. Oh Lord, restore the health of my friend and never allow the plans & weapons of the enemies to prevail over his or her life.
I call upon the blood of Jesus Christ over the life of my friend, in the morning, after and night. Let the blood make him/her whole & strong like the man at the pool of water for 38-years.
Jehovah God, Your Word said “We will not die but live to declare the goodness of God in the land of the living” and your word standeth sure.
Therefore, any power that wants to cut the life of my friend short is already condemned in Jesus name, AMEN!.
God, as you restored the dried bones, in the same way, restore the health of my friend and let the consuming fire destroy any spirit of sickness in his or her life permanently.
In all, perfect HEALING is of the Children of God. Do this oh Lord and let your name be glorified in Jesus Name, AMEN!
Hallelujah, it’s done just have faith in God over your prayers & supplications. With God, all things are possible.
Thanks, see you in my next article.
