Specific prayers for sick children
Tender Healer, Guardian of Little Ones and Source of All Life,
As this child battles illness, we lift our trembling hearts to You—
not because fear is absent, but because Your compassion overflows.
We thank You for warriors in white coats.
For doctors who study with Your wisdom,
For nurses whose gentleness mirrors Your touch,
For machines that monitor with tireless precision.
"Let the little children come to Me."
Rebuild this fragile body cell by cell.
Where infection rages, bring swift peace;
Where organs struggle, restore rhythm;
Where pain screams, pour out Your balm of relief.
"I have heard your prayer; I have seen your tears."
Hold parents in their terror.
When sleep flees and statistics haunt,
Whisper: "Cast all your anxiety on Me,"
And turn hospital vigils into altars of trust.
Turn IV drips into liquid prayers.
Let every medication carry Your healing power,
Every scan reveal pathways to wholeness,
And every tiny smile spark celestial hope.
"Your faith has made you whole."
Transform this trial into testimony.
May monitors one day sing redemption’s story,
Scars become badges of divine deliverance,
And this child’s laughter drown out night’s worst fears.
Jesus, Friend of children who said "Let them come,"
Wrap Your arms around this precious life.
May we declare with healed Jairus: "My child lives!"
In Your life-giving name, we pray. Amen.
