PRAYING THE WORD OF TRUTH Duane Sheriff's grandson, Urias, was born under traumatic circumstances that, in most cases, would have resulted in tragedy. In fact, Urias was born dead and was without breath for between 20 and 30 minutes. Even after the initial miracle of coming back to life, the medical teams gave him a grim prognosis. But God mobilized prayer warriors to stand in the gap believing for a miracle. Today, Urias is a healthy, thriving boy who is a testimony to the power of the living God. The community of Victory Life Church came together that day and in the months to come to pray the Word of God over Urias in faith. We want to share this prayer with you should the need arise for you to stand in the gap for a family member or friend. Heavenly Father, Your Word says that our children are an inheritance and a blessing from you (Psalm 127:3), and that __________________ is fearfully and wonderfully made (Psalm 139:14), intricately woven together in his/her mother’s womb (Psalm 139:15-16), and that you called him/her according to Your purpose before he/she was born (Jeremiah 1:5) for Your Kingdom and for Your glory.
We proclaim that the assignment to kill, steal, and destroy __________________ ’s future (John 10:10) is cancelled and cannot succeed, for no weapon formed against him/her shall prosper, and every tongue or prognosis that rises against his/her health and full recovery shall be proven wrong (Isaiah 54:17). We speak to the mountains that __________________ will be facing: (diagnosis/prognosis) and command them to be uprooted and cast into the sea. We do not doubt the power of Your Word and the name of Jesus (Mark 11:24), for You promised that where two of us agree on earth about ANYTHING we ask, it will be done for us by You, Father (Matthew 18:19). We agree together touching the mind and body of __________________, declaring that he/she is healed by the stripes of Jesus (Isaiah 53:5) and the healing will manifest in spirit, soul, and body, that he/she will live a full and healthy life, and recount the wonderful deeds of the Lord (Psalm 118:17). We speak into __________________’s mind and body the Word of the Lord that is sent to heal and to deliver him/her from ALL destruction (Psalm 107:20).
We command __________________’s body to function fully according to God’s design and exceedingly and abundantly above the doctors’ expectations (Ephesians 3:20). We believe __________________’s healing will bring glory to the name of Jesus (Ephesians 3:21), for the name of Jesus is above any sickness, disease, or damage (Philippians 2:9). This is the confidence we have in Christ Jesus: that if we ask anything according to Your will, You hear us. And if we know You hear us in whatever we ask, we know that we have the requests that we have asked of You (1 John 5:14-15). For __________________ to make a full and healthy recovery is Your will and we are confident we will see him/her whole, in Jesus’ name. We pray for divine wisdom and inspiration for the doctors and nurses who are caring for __________________, beyond their natural understanding or abilities (James 1:5). We thank you for Your peace being given to our family (John 14:27), peace that comforts and dispels fear from us.

We pray together as one for Your Kingdom to come, and Your will to be done perfectly and completely in this trial as it is in heaven (Matthew 6:10). Despite this attack from the enemy, we believe that You, Father, will work all things together for the good of __________________ and our family (Romans 8:28), who are more than conquerors because of the love and power of Jesus (Romans 8:37), who already has overcome the enemy (John 16:33), and has given that victory to __________________ and our whole family (1 Corinthians 15:57). With You, Lord, we shall do valiantly; it is You, Jesus, who treads down our foes (Psalm 60:12). You will turn the strategy of Satan on his own head (Psalm 27:2), and will make a show of him openly in his defeat once again (Colossians 2:15). Holy Spirit, bring comfort (John 14:16) and power (Romans 15:13) to our family to see this victory all the way through to the end. We declare that Yours is the Kingdom, and the power, and Yours is the glory, now in this trial, and forever. Amen.
