James 5:14-15 - "Is anyone among you sick? Let them call the elders of the church to pray over them and anoint them with oil in the name of the Lord. And the prayer offered in faith will make the sick person well; the Lord will raise them up. If they have sinned, they will be forgiven."
Prayer:
Heavenly Father, we come before you in faith, believing in the power of your anointing oil to bring healing and restoration. We ask that you would bless this oil and consecrate it for your use. May it be a symbol of your presence and power in our lives.
As we anoint ourselves or others with this oil, we pray for your healing touch to be upon us. May your Spirit move in power, bringing physical, emotional, and spiritual healing to all who are in need. We trust in your promise that the prayer offered in faith will make the sick person well.
We also ask for forgiveness for any sins that may have contributed to our sickness or distress. May your grace and mercy wash over us, cleansing us from all unrighteousness.
We thank you, Lord, for your love and compassion towards us. May this anointing oil be a reminder of your presence and your promise to always be with us. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
