20 Healing Bible Verses - Therapeutic Scripture Quotes

Scriptures about the Healing of God

By Jen Grice

Life doesn’t always give us what we expect or even hope for.  Unfortunately, it is common for us to know what it’s like to be emotionally hurt by friends, family, or even a spouse. Many more know what it is like to live with a disorder, illness, or chronic pain that continually plagues us. We all need healing in some way or another, may these healing Bible verses aid your recovery.

We can rely on God’s power, to not only heal our emotional pain but to grant physical healing as well. These are Bible verses about healing to meditate on. I hope they assist you with whatever emotional, spiritual, or physical healing you need today.

Prayer for Health and Healing

Almighty God, you are the only source of health and healing. In you there is calm, and the only true peace in the universe. Grant to each one of us your children an awareness of your presence, and give us perfect confidence in you.

In all pain and weariness and anxiety teach us to yield ourselves to your never-failing care, knowing that your love and power surround us, trusting in your wisdom and providence to give us health and strength and peace when your time is best; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. (Source)
