Healing Prayer
Jesus, I ask you to enter into my heart and release me from those life experiences that torment me. You know me so much better than I know myself. Therefore, bring your love to every corner of my heart.
Wherever you discover the wounded child, touch, console and release me.
Walk back through my life to the very moment when I was conceived. Cleanse my bloodlines and free me from those things which may have exerted a negative influence at that moment. Bless me again as I was being formed within my mother’s womb and remove all barriers to wholeness which may have affected me during those months of confinement.
Bridge the gap between the love that I needed and never perceived receiving.
Jesus, I ask you to surround my infancy with your light and heal those memories which keep me from being free. If I needed more of a mother’s love, send me your Mother, Mary, to provide whatever was lacking. If I needed more of a father’s love and security to assure me that I was wanted and loved very deeply, I ask you to hold me and let me feel your strong, protective arms. Give me renewed confidence and courage to face the trials of the world because I know my Father’s love will support me if I stumble and fall.
Thank you, Lord!
