I didn’t write this but thought it was worth sharing. I was diagnosed with breast cancer in May 2022 and this prayer is a powerful reminder of who my healer is.

Heavenly Father, we thank You for Your steadfast love and kindness. Thank You for sending Your Son, Jesus Christ, to heal us of our infirmities and diseases. Thank You for watching over us and our families. You are a wonderful God and we love You. We give thanks to You, Lord, for You are good. Your faithful love endures forever. Our souls bless You and remember all of Your benefits. You are the One who forgives all our sins, heals us from diseases, redeems our lives from destruction and crowns us with tender mercies. You satisfy our mouths with good things so that our youth is renewed like the eagle’s. O Lord, our Lord, Your majestic Name fills the earth!

Awesome Father, it is Your will that we live free from all diseases. Your thoughts towards us are of peace and not evil, to give us a future and a hope. You sent Your Word to heal and deliver us from destruction. Your Word says that Jesus carried our sicknesses and pains. He was pierced for our rebellion and crushed for our sins. He was beaten so that we could be whole and whipped so that we could be healed. Today, we accept what Jesus has done for us and we decree that by His stripes, (name the person that has been diagnosed) is healed.

Holy Spirit, please increase the wisdom, knowledge and understanding to medical doctors, nurses, researchers, technicians and healthcare personnel who conduct breast cancer research and studies and administer treatment to breast cancer patients. Fill those who are undergoing breast cancer treatment with Your strength, courage and patience. Strengthen their immune systems and protect their bodies as they undergo chemotherapy, radiation therapy, biological therapy, hormone therapy, surgery, cryosurgery and other procedures. Holy Spirit, comfort and strengthen their family members. Help them to cast all their cares upon You because You are the One who cares for us all. Remind their loved ones to have faith and to believe God for healing and a cure. With people, some things are impossible. But, with You, all things are possible.

Loving Father, forgive those diagnosed with breast cancer of all acts of sinfulness. Forgive those who have not been good stewards of their bodies and lifestyles. Forgive those who ignored the warning signs and symptoms. Forgive those who have not trusted You or Your Word. Forgive our nation for not always providing adequate funding and resources for women’s health issues. Father, please extend Your mercy to us all. Lord, forgive me for (list any sins that you have committed). Holy Spirit, remind those who have been diagnosed with cancer to forgive and help them to be quick to forgive. As for me, Holy Spirit, bring to my remembrance those I need to forgive. (Take a moment and ask the Holy Spirit to reveal names or faces of people that you may need to forgive. As He reveals them, say, “I forgive name of person(s).” Now, trust the Lord to heal any wounds in your soul caused by unforgiveness.)
