10 Powerful Prayer For A Dying Person

Spread the love

The prayer for a dying person is one of the prayers that seek to comfort the hearts of both the person who is about to depart from this world, as well as for family and friends, who are reluctant to accept this departure process.

It is for this reason that prayer for a dying person is very important, because it allows the whole family to accept and assimilate death as part of life, and thus be prepared in the midst of this type of painful circumstance, which is to say goodbye to a loved one when it is time to leave.

Why Prayer for a dying person?

When the subject of death is discussed, it is rarely commented on by anyone, because nobody likes to talk about that moment when a person they love is fired.

Therefore, when praying for a dying person, you can comfort the relatives.

It is being able to face this moment of farewell, breaking the stigma that God’s consolation brings to the soul of the dying, and to their relatives.

Consecrate the person to God

For each one of the believers in God, they should know that when a person is dying, be it a family member or a friend, they have to be consecrated on the heavenly altar.

This is due to two reasons, the first is so that he can be healed if it is the will of the Lord, or so that he can go to the heavenly abode in tranquillity and peace.

It is imperative to know that according to the Holy Scriptures it says that through Jesus you can have an abundant life.

Referring to that eternal life that he promises to those who believe in Him, that is why a person when he is in his last moments on earth, it is necessary that he consecrate himself before Him.

“Truly, truly, I say to you, whoever believes in me has eternal life” (John 6:47)

Give Hope of Eternal Salvation

When praying for someone who is dying, it should give them hope.

It is being able to tell him about the good news of salvation, and it will help him remember that from the earth he will be able to have an encounter with the Lord in heaven, who will receive him so that he may receive eternal rest in his divine abode.

And through the word that is to this prayer, they will be able to have that hope to which all believers must cling, and that is to know that all who depart in Christ will rest in his presence.

“Neither do we want you, brothers, to be ignorant about those who sleep so that you do not grieve like others who have no hope” (1 Thessalonians 4:13)
