  • The following prayer is often titled:

    "The Most Powerful Healing Prayer" by St. Padre Pio

    Does anyone know if Padre Pio actually wrote this prayer??


    Heavenly Father, I thank you for loving me.
    I thank you for sending your Son,
    Our Lord Jesus Christ, to the world to save and to set me free.
    I trust in your power and grace that sustain and restore me.
     
    Loving Father,
    touch me now with your healing hands,
    for I believe that your will is for me to be well in mind, body, soul and spirit.
    Cover me with the most precious blood of your Son,
    our Lord, Jesus Christ from the top of my head to the soles of my feet.
    Cast anything that should not be in me.
    Root out any unhealthy and abnormal cells.
    Open any blocked arteries or veins and rebuild and replenish any damaged areas.
    Remove all inflammation and cleanse any infection
    by the power of Jesus’ precious blood.
    Let the fire of your healing love pass through my entire body
    to heal and make new any diseased areas
    so that my body will function the way you created it to function.
    Touch also my mind and my emotion,
    even the deepest recesses of my heart.
     
    Saturate my entire being with your presence,
    love, joy and peace and draw me ever closer to you every moment of my life.
    And Father, fill me with your Holy Spirit
    and empower me to do your works
    so that my life will bring glory and honour to your holy name.
    I ask this in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ.
     
    Amen.
    If any one saith that true and natural water is not of necessity for baptism, and on that account wrests to some sort of metaphor those words of Our Lord Jesus Christ, "Unless a man be born again of water and the Holy Ghost...,"  Let Him Be Anathama.  -COUNCIL OF TRENT Sess VII Canon II “On Baptism"

  • My little opinion about that "powerful" prayer is that it seems very natural, almost all of it. How 'bout mentioning that God's will be adored, accomplished etc. 
    (I like this short prayer: "Only one life will soon be past; only what's done for Christ will last!"

    I see Padre Pio's Prayer to his Guardian Angel, in French, but Google translated.
    should read:
    "....defend me against the tricks of the Evil One..."

    What a great 'saint' he was. Somewhere there is a photo of + Lefebvre speaking with him.
    Pray.

    La mesure de l'amour, c'est d'aimer sans mesure.
    The measure of love is to love without measure.
