A PRAYER FOR THE PHYSICAL.
Father, we thank you for blessing us with bodies that were intricately and specifically designed for us. We thank you because you said that we were “fearfully and wonderfully made”. Lord, we thank you for your intentionality. We thank you God for all that you have trusted within us, Lord.
We thank you for our physical bodies. Lord God, we thank you for health and we thank you for the times of affliction that have drawn us closer to you and the times of affliction that have given us a better understanding of your son Jesus’ suffering. We know that you work all things together for the good of those who love you and those that are called according to your purpose. Father, if there is anything in our body that is not of you, we ask that you would remove it right now. Any illness, any spirit of affliction, Father we ask that you would remove it immediately.
Father, reveal your purpose for our bodies. Reveal to us what you intended for our bodies.
God, we rebuke the lies of the devil that tell us that our bodies are our own. we rebuke the lies of the enemy that try to tell us that our bodies are something separate from your innate desire and will for our lives. God, we come against every lie that says that our bodies are not perfect in their design.
Father, you have called our bodies temples, help us to see our bodies the way that you do- as holy ground. Father, in moments of fasting and praying… Remind us that we are to fill ourselves with you and your word. In times of weakness, remind us that we are made strong in that very essence. Help us to rely on you, Lord.
Father, we ask that you would give us new revelation and insights into the call you’ve placed on our earthly bodies. In Jesus’ name, Amen!
