Prayer Before a Major Surgery

Entrusting a serious operation into God's hands

1 min read

Facing a major surgery brings real fear alongside the hope of healing. This prayer places the whole event — the surgeon's hands, the outcome, the recovery — into God's care.

Lord, tomorrow's surgery is more serious than I want to admit, and I am afraid. Guide the hands and mind of every person involved in my care. Let the surgery go well, and let my body heal as it should afterward. Whatever happens, let me know that you were with me every step, from the waiting room to recovery. Amen.
