How to pray for the sick?

Prayers for the sick can provide comfort and support to those who are suffering from illness or injury, and can help us hold onto hope that they will get well. Whether we are praying for ourselves or someone we love, the power of asking God can help us find the strength and resilience we need to face difficult times. In these prayers for the sick, we ask for guidance on how to support our loved ones, the courage to face whatever comes our way, and the blessings of healing and recovery.

We will print and place your prayer request on the Stone of Anointing; the place where Christ’ body was laid down after being removed from the crucifix and prepared for burial.

Praise and thanks be to God!! And I thank all of you for your prayers for my boyfriend. His doctor finally found a medication that works for his disease! He has been on it for over a year now and is back to living a normal life. Hallelujah!!

God Bless you all for doing what you do! I never could have imagined being able to pray at Jesus’s tomb and by you offering this service, I feel he heard me just the same if I was actually there. Please know how much I appreciate you! God Bless.

Praise God Almighty!My prayers were answered.I suffered hemorrhoids for a month.I prayed very hard and send my petitions to Holy Land Prayer. Truly, the God of Israel is faithful to his promise that I am the God that health thee. I'm thankful for having this service.

Norma

I must give you my testimony of miracles after requesting prayer. Regarding my finances. I have received “supernatural” favor on my job with relation to increase in my hours at work after a long “drought” in that department. Favor with my taxes. And I’am now keeping a record of this in my prayer journal. Expecting more to come!!! Thank-you so much.

Tracey

I would like to thank you so very much for your wonderful service! I was amazed when I saw the video of the candle that was lit on my behalf at the Holy Sepulcher complete with my prayer request to JESUS! It made me so happy to know that my Request has reached the Holiest place on Earth and I am sure that GOD honored me the faith that he gave me!

Scott

All thanks and glory to God. My husband and I went through a very hard time I'm 2019, I sent a couple of prayers and through his grace they were answered. I just wanted to thank you from the bottom of our hearts, thank you for giving us the opportunity to have our prayers read at the most holiest place. It has given us so much comfort. May God bless you all. God is good ❤
