Prayer for Cancer Patients- The Power of Words

God, a creator deity, Supreme Being, and the principal object of faith, is our hope. He is miraculous, and we are the part of his divine family, and he is always there to love us. Because of that Supreme Being, we don’t have to worry in a difficult situation, and this is possible only when we trust him. 

God always takes care of our problems and makes a path for the solution. He knows what is best for us. He can see the overall picture and will make the best decision for his children. So we have to keep faith in him, devote ourselves to him, follow him through our prayers. Prayers are the only medium through which God can look at our hearts. 

Paths to Prayer

There are numerous paths to prayer; it just depends on one’s beliefs, though different people have different ways of prayers, all of them have one ultimate goal – which is to connect to God. People who are suffering from cancer can appreciate these prayers though they are apprehensive about their future. Some say that Prayers are so strong that they have the capability to move mountains or cure any tough disease like cancer.

Power of God’s LOVE-Heal Cancer from within

Cancer is not always caused by external factors –like a person who smokes need to get cancer, and others will not. In the end, it’s all about how your body deals with these circumstances. The medical team doesn’t have an eye on the inner power of healing from cancer. They are just involved in destroying the cells, which are causing cancer and ignoring the thought that a cancer patient needs to be morally healed from within first. 

Through prayers, the cancer patients can be healed from within, and that can create resistance towards this disease. God has the power to create harmony, love, and, most importantly, develop the faith that we can fight with any of the severe problems by keeping the optimistic side upfront and obeying the signals received from God.

It would be wrong to say that medical teams are not accurately treating cancer. They are doing their jobs well, but that is like a descriptive procedure, and ignoring the thought that the patient has to be healed from within first than only he will be able to fight with this disease externally. Following Jesus can deprive the fear of the patient of what’s going to be next, what will be his life after death instead will bring the inner confidence and strength to stand and fight this cancer strongly.

Prayers to be followed to fight cancer

May the Spirit of Jesus bring us all health in soul and body, that with joy and thanksgiving, we may praise you for your goodness…”

Following below-mentioned prayer is from one of the Christian cancer patients-

“Lord, You have taught me that faith as small as a mustard seed can grow into an amazing tree. Today I give you my little seed of faith. I place it firmly in the ground of your word. I water it with the truth. The warmth of your love will make it grow. Today I ask by faith that you would bring healing from this cancer. I place my trust in you. May this seed sow healing into every area where the tumor has emerged…”

Prayer from ‘Navajo Community’
