A prayer before surgery

Lord, as I go into surgery, steady the hands that will care for me. Give the doctors and nurses clear minds, sharp eyes and calm hearts. Quiet the fear that rises in me tonight, and let me rest in knowing I am held by You before, during and after. Bring healing to my body, patience for the recovery, and peace to everyone waiting for news. I place this day in Your hands. In Jesus' name, Amen.

The night before surgery is often harder than the surgery itself. If your mind keeps running through what could go wrong, it's okay to say that to God plainly. You don't need perfect words.

If someone you love is the one going in, pray it for them by putting their name where it says "me", or send them a prayer written just for them.

Questions people ask

Can I pray for someone else's surgery?

Yes. Pray for the person by name, for the surgical team, and for their recovery. Pray Up can also write a prayer for them and text it to them from you.

Is there a Bible verse for surgery?

Many people hold onto Isaiah 41:10: "Don't you be afraid, for I am with you. Don't be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you. Yes, I will help you."
