This powerful but short prayer for cancer patients can be used for yourself or others in your life to help through the struggle and bring them back to God. I have example prayers and advice on how you can use them to help through this difficult time.

Prayer moves mountains and cancer is no exception. A prayer of faith in God by a righteous man could heal them if it is according to god’s will.

Glory be to Thee, O Lord my God! I beg of Thee by Thy Name through which He Who is Thy Beauty hath been stablished upon the throne of Thy Cause, and by Thy Name through which Thou changest all things, and gatherest together all things, and callest to account all things, and rewardest all things, and preservest all things, and sustainest all things — I beg of Thee to guard this handmaiden who hath fled for refuge to Thee, and hath sought the shelter of Him in Whom Thou Thyself art manifest, and hath put her whole trust and confidence in Thee.

“She is sick, O my God, and hath entered beneath the shadow of the Tree of Thy healing; afflicted, and hath fled to the City of Thy protection; diseased, and hath sought the Fountainhead of Thy favors; sorely vexed, and hath hasted to attain the Wellspring of Thy tranquillity; burdened with sin, and hath set her face toward the court of Thy forgiveness.

“Attire her, by Thy sovereignty and Thy loving-kindness, O my God and my Beloved, with the raiment of Thy balm and Thy healing, and make her quaff of the cup of Thy mercy and Thy favors. Protect her, moreover, from every affliction and ailment, from all pain and sickness, and from whatsoever may be abhorrent unto Thee.

“Thou, in truth, art immensely exalted above all else except Thyself. Thou art, verily, the Healer, the All-Sufficing, the Preserver, the Ever-Forgiving, the Most Merciful.“

When praying for them, intercede to God to forgive them of whatever might be the cause of their grieving. Sometimes it’s the things we have done unapologetically that get us to problems. Some we know some we don’t. For the ones the patient know, ask them to repent for them. For those they don’t know, ask the Holy Spirit to intercede for them. Then God will forgive the faults and heal them.

It can be a struggle in times like this and there’s no such thing as too much prayer. If it helps, I’ve also posted a short prayer for healing and recovery which you might want to use as well.

Some cancer patients are ready to die while some are not. The patient needs to make peace with whatever situation they may face. Those who are not ready could be because they feel bad for leaving their loved ones, some are unsaved and do not want to go to hell while some would be having unfinished business with those they are living. Ask God to give the patient strength to make things right during the last minutes, intercede for their saving, plead with God to forgive them for whatever heaviness they would be having, ask God to help them forgive those who have wronged them and make peace with everything they would be unsettled about. To those who are ready, ask God to save them also, encourage them that there is life after death, continue giving them the peace of mind and rest their soul in peace.

While praying along with the patients, ensure that your prayer gives them hope. Sometimes they might hear prayer and become more fainthearted than they were. This would be harm than help. When you pray, ask God to heal them, save them, be with them, forgive them and take lead in their life. This would encourage them that no matter what would happen it’s for the good and would encourage them that their end would still be God guided.
