Healing Prayer:
Heavenly Abba, I know You are the Abba of mercies and the YHVH of all comfort. I ask You to bring comfort to me during this time of grief and mourning in my life. Thank You for Your promise to bind up my broken heart and to bring comfort to me as I mourn. I believe Your Word and I receive Your comfort as I pray, because I know Your Word brings life and comfort to me. When I walk through the valley of the shadow of the death, I will fear no evil because I know You my Adonai and my YHVH, is with me. Your Shepherd’s rod and staff bring comfort to me. Thank You Abba, for being my Shepherd. I know that Yeshua is my High Priest and He is touched with the feelings of my grief and mourning. Realizing this Abba, I come boldly unto Your throne of grace, fully believing it is there that I will receive Your mercy and find Your grace to help me in my time of need. The promises of Your Word help me to know Abba, that I have no reason to fear or despair, because I know You are with me. You are my YHVH. You are strengthening me and upholding me with the right hand of Your righteousness. Thank You Abba. Therefore, I ask You to give me beauty in place of ashes and Your oil of joy for my mourning. I will wear the garment of praise that You have provided for me. Abba, as I draw closer to You through praise and singing, I receive Your gladness and joy and I know that my mourning and sorrow will flee. You turned David’s mourning into dancing and I know that You can do it for me as well. Your joy dear YHVH, is my strength during this difficult time. I love You Abba and I know that You love me. In the wonderful Name of Yeshua I pray, amen.
