PRAYER TO ELIMINATE EMOTIONAL PAIN
Heal Their Emotional Anguish Healing prayers
Father, I’m praying for [this individual] and others in my family or circle of friends who are in need of Your healing touch for their broken hearts.
Some of them have suffered from emotional wounds, some of which are severe. Help them to be willing to let you heal their wounds so they don’t become more harmful over time, for You are the Lord who heals.
I come to You with the same sense of helplessness and need that Moses had as he led Your people across the wilderness. They arrived at water, but it was bitter, and the folks had no drink. When Moses cried out to You, You showed him a piece of wood, which he dropped into the river, and the water became sweet.
I’m now speaking on behalf of those who are experiencing emotional distress. I bring the wood of the cross to my heart, asking Christ, who heals the brokenhearted and ties up their wounds, to cure any bitterness He sees in their hearts.
Help them not to become captive to sin because of their wrath, resentment, unforgiveness, or bitterness, regardless of the hurt they’ve endured. May their souls not harden or become calloused, but rather be refreshed in Christ. May they not lose heart, but rather be rejuvenated within day by day. In the name of Jesus, amen.
