They wanted only to touch the edge of his clothing

Keep bringing your need to Jesus and ask him directly

Wait until you feel spiritually impressive enough to come

Try to solve everything alone before praying

Ask once and stop if the answer is not immediate

If you would like to receive Jesus, pray this with me: Lord Jesus, I come to you in my sin and need. I have tried to carry life on my own, and I need your mercy. I believe you died for my sins and rose again. I turn from my sin and trust you as my Savior. Be my Lord, draw me near, and make me new. Amen.

Come Near, Lord Jesus

Lord, revive your Church with humble, persistent faith. Where we have grown casual, teach us again to press toward Jesus for help, to trust his mercy, and to bring the hurting and needy before him. Make us a people who do not give up in prayer, in the name of Jesus. Amen.

Renew Our Persistent Faith

Father, I bring before you every person who is reaching out for healing, relief, or strength. Let your compassion meet them, and let those who are weak receive the help they need. Teach us to keep coming to Jesus with confidence, in the name of Jesus. Amen.

Healing for the Needy

Pray for: people living with chronic pain; families waiting for a diagnosis; caregivers who feel worn down; believers to respond with steady compassion and prayer.

Pray for the Hurting Around You

Start by naming one need clearly, then ask Jesus directly for help, and pray again tomorrow if the answer has not yet come.

Bring the Need to Jesus Again

Lord, thank you that you do not turn away those who come to you in need. Thank you for hearing desperate prayers and for bringing healing in your time and way. Help me trust you enough to keep reaching for you, in the name of Jesus. Amen.

Thank You for Hearing the Needy
