2 Corinthians 12:9 — Early Morning Prayer for Healing, Strength, and Breakthrough in Illness

5 A.M. Release — Recorded live here in London, England — from London to São Paulo, from São Paulo to Accra, from Accra to Melbourne — as dawn breaks, the Healer still works.

Scripture (NIV)

“But he said to me, ‘My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.’ Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me.” — 2 Corinthians 12:9 (NIV)

Show Notes

As the world wakes, countless people rise with pain, weakness, or the weight of chronic illness. “Prayer for healing” remains one of the most searched phrases online because every human heart longs to be made whole. But in this verse, God reminds us that His grace doesn’t just remove pain — it redeems it.

From London to São Paulo, Accra to Melbourne, stories of suffering meet the strength of Christ. Where medicine ends, mercy begins. The same grace that carried Paul through trial still carries believers through chemo, surgery, and sleepless nights. His power is not distant; it rests on the weak and renews the weary.

This morning we lift every broken body, every anxious caregiver, every soul waiting for a miracle. Healing flows not only through recovery, but through revelation — that Christ’s strength is enough for today.

And this is the morning prayer. It could be the evening prayer for you. It could be the middle of the night, wherever you are, whatever your time zone is, wherever you are today, the glory of God is over your life. Thank you for joining us for this prayer family as we walk in the power of God. Spirit of the Living God, we come to you right now and we pray for healing. We pray for strength. We pray for breakthrough from illness. Lord, we are bringing the sisters and the brothers, anyone that's not well, we're praying, dear God, for breakthrough right now, and we speak this word over our lives. But he said to me, My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness. Therefore, I will boast all the more gladly about my weakness so that Christ's power may rest on me. Lord, I love that second part of that text, Jesus. I want that Christ's power to rest on me. Father, I pray for the listeners around the world that they will feel the power of Christ resting on them because your grace is sufficient, your love is merciful. And Father, I pray for your power is made perfect in weakness. When I am weak, Lord, that's where I need to be. And right now, Lord, as the world awakes, Lord, countless people rising in pain today, Lord. Father, through weakness, through worry, dear God, through chronic illnesses, through, dear God, sheer pain, the prayer for healing, Lord, we remain strong in our faith. And we bring this before you right now. Father, we pray for breakthrough in the name of Jesus. We bring, dear God, the prayer family before you. Lord God, you remain the same. Your word is the same yesterday, today, and forevermore. And you are the redeeming king. You are the great I am. And Father, we ask you from London to Saint Paolo, all the way, dear God, to Melbourne, all the way, dear God, to the Philippines, from the Philippines to Japan. Father, we pray, dear God, for the Ukraine and Russia, Switzerland, Norway. Lord, let there be breakthrough. But right now, Lord, wherever the human beings are, wherever, dear God, the prayer family is, wherever the born-again, spirit-filled believers are, we pray that grace will carry us, just as grace carried Paul through the trials and the tests, through the sickness, through the fears, through the doubt. Father, we believe that you are carrying people that are going through chemotherapy, surgery, Lord, sleepless nights, pains, motor neuron disease, MS. Father, we pray for COVID to go right now. We ask for back pain to go. We pray for slip discs to be well. We pray for arthritis to bow to the name of Jesus, cancer, worry, anxiety to go right now in the name of Jesus. Father, we lift this up to you at this morning. Father, we pray that every morning, the broken body, the mind that is tired, the anxious caregiver, Lord, that is weary and exhausted, Father, we ask you that every soul waiting for a miracle, we believe in the Father, the Son, the Holy Spirit. We believe in the Lord's Prayer. We thank you for the Lord's Prayer. We thank you, dear God, that our Father is with each and every one of us. We believe in the power, dear God, of the resurrection presence of Jesus Christ in our lives. But we come to you, Lord, almost in desperation. Yes, Lord, actually desperation, because Lord, nothing else is working. And we pray that a healing will flow, that miracles will flow. Lord, that there will be recovery right now, that we will have revelational knowledge and Christ's power and his strength, dear God, to help us through everyday trial. Lord, we need physical healing and strength, emotional recovery at the name of Jesus Christ, healing from chronic pain and sickness, fear to go. Lord, we need God's power to sustain us through weakness, comfort during medical treatment, divine health and restoration, healing from trauma and loss, sickness, dear God, to go. Hope during recovery. Lord, we need you today. Oh my Lord, do we need you today, Lord? Because we're weary and we're tired and we need the grace of God. Father, we thank you that grace is with us always. Lord, turn your face to us. We thank you that your grace is sufficient for us and your power rests on our lives today. Lord, I thank you for your love and your mercy. Heal us today. The call to action is share this prayer with someone that is facing sickness and disease. May God bless you. My name's Reverend Ben Cooper. Until tomorrow.
