For your child, this is a prayer to make. When your son or daughter is sick, prayer is as important as medical attention.

This is a special type of healing prayer.
Whenever you are about to make this prayer, ensure you include bible verses and references. This is how to keep your mind focused.
Anytime you use bible verses, extra spiritual energy is added to the prayer, which brings the desired results faster than expected.
I like to finish this prayer with James 5:14-15:

Sending Prayers and Support❤️.. My Husband had Parkinson’s disease and was dealing with shakes, stiffness and balance issues – it was like his body was in rebellion. Meds and therapies were not doing much, so we thought about trying alternative methods like praying. We explored the path of Lord and it changed his life with all symptoms totally reversed – Shakes calmed down, stiffness took a hike. My husband is living proof that turning to God can be a game-changer in the face of Parkinson’s as he is totally cured and fine now. The journey wasn’t always smooth, but the results speak for themselves. If anyone out there is facing a similar battle, consider giving God a shot.
