O Lord, I feel weary in my spirit, soul, and body. I need to be renewed, and I ask You to send forth the power of Your Holy Spirit upon me now. Spirit of the Living God, fall afresh on me! Fill me O Lord, with Your power, Your presence, Your divine energy, and Your everlasting grace.
You are the Father of Glory, and You live in unapproachable light. You are eternal, omnipotent, all-knowing, and omnipresent. Heaven and earth are full of Your glory!

They that hope in the LORD will renew their strength, they will soar as with eagles' wings; They will run and not grow weary, walk and not grow faint. -Isaiah 40:31
In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.
Prayers for Spiritual Healing - From Psalm 51
Have mercy on me, God, in your goodness; in your abundant compassion blot out my offense. Wash away all my guilt; from my sin cleanse me. A clean heart create for me, God; renew in me a steadfast spirit. Do not drive me from your presence, nor take from me your holy spirit. Restore my joy in your salvation; sustain in me a willing spirit.

Prayer for the restoration of health
Dear God, You are my Father, who cares for my every need. You are all good, all knowing, and all compassionate. You have a plan for my life, a plan to give me a future full of hope.
Restore me to health, according to Your Will, O God, for I am weak and weary. Only You can make me whole, Lord Jesus.
Just as You stretched out Your hand and healed the broken, needy, and sick, so I ask You to stretch forth Your mighty arm now, and heal me.
Dear Lord, I want to serve You more devotedly than ever before. In my sickness You have drawn me closer to Yourself, and reminded me that You are my closest and dearest Friend. I want to be well and strong and filled with Your vitality and Spirit. I am excited about getting back into the swing of things, according to Your Will and for the sake of Your glory.
Lord, if for some reason it is not Your perfect Will that I be restored to health at this time, please give me the grace to accept Your Will, the humility to receive others' help, and the joy of knowing I am safe in Your arms, now and for all eternity. To You be all the honor, glory, and praise, through Christ Our Lord, in union with Our Blessed Mother and all the saints. Amen.
