Praying for Friends in Need: A 5-Day Study by Asheritah CiuciuSample

THOSE WHO ARE SICK

“Heal me, Lord, and I will be healed; save me and I will be saved,

for you are the one I praise.”

JEREMIAH 17:14

RECITE GOD’S GOODNESS

Creator of Heaven and Earth, You are the One who made us and sustains us—

every cell in our bodies must submit to Your sovereign will. One word from

You and the sick are healed and the dead come to life! Nothing is impossible

with You!

EXPRESS YOUR NEEDINESS

Lord, like the friends of the paralytic lowered through the roof, I bring to You

my friend who’s battling this sickness. I cannot help her, but You can. Do what

only You can do, Lord. Bring healing to her body, health to her bones, peace to

her heart, and restoration to her soul.

SEEK HIS STILLNESS

Picture yourself carrying your friend to Jesus. Imagine His response to her . . . to you.

What does God want to say to you? Let His presence flow over you and fill you with

His peace.

TRUST HIS FAITHFULNESS

Lord God, You who know the very number of hairs on our heads—help us

trust You even in these unexpected times. You know how much we long for

physical healing, but we trust You to do what is best. May Your will be done in

our lives here on earth, as it is in heaven.
