How to Enjoy Good Health - A Nighttime Prayer


“Dear friend, I pray that you may enjoy good health and that all may go well with you even as your soul is getting along well.” – 3 John 1:2

Please Pray:

Dear Lord, I recognize You as the Great Physician. I pray You will heal my body so that I may use my life to serve to Your glory. But if healing does not come in a miraculous way, I pray that you guide my earthly physicians as they strive to support my good health. Motivate me to lead a healthy lifestyle, and protect me from the maladies that plague this world. Thank You for the caregivers that stand beside me at every age and every stage of life. But most of all, thank You for traveling with me on this journey of life so that my faith does not falter, even if my strength wanes. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
