In keeping with the Spurgeon theme...
I have a great need for Christ, I have a great Christ for my need.

A "Prayer Tip" from Charles Spurgeon:
"How are we to handle this sword of 'It is written'? First, with deepest reverence. Let every word that God has spoken be law and gospel to you. Never trifle with it; never try to evade its force or change its meaning. God speaks to you in this book as much as if he came to the top of Sinai and lifted up his voice with thunder.
I like to open the Bible and pray, 'Lord God, let the words leap off the page into my soul; make them vivid, powerful, and fresh to my heart.'"
Our Lord Himself felt the power of the Word. It was not so much the devil who felt the power of 'It is written" as Christ Himself. The manhood of Christ felt an awe of the Word of God, and so the Word became a power to Christ. To trifle with Scripture is to deprive yourself of its aid. Reverence it, and look up to God with devout gratitude for having given it to you.

Prayer For Health and Healing
Father, in the name of Jesus, we confess Your Word concerning the healing of ALL GOD'S PEOPLE. As we do this, I believe and say that Your Word will not return to You void in ALL GOD'S PEOPLE'S behalf, but will accomplish what Your Word says it will.
Therefore, we believe in the name of Jesus that ALL GOD'S PEOPLE are healed, totally and completely, from the top of their heads to the soles of their feet, according to 1 Peter 2:24.
It is written in Your Word that Jesus Himself took our infirmities and bore our sicknesses. Therefore, with great boldness and confidence we say on the authority of the written Word that ALL GOD'S PEOPLE IN THE EARTH, WORLD, UNIVERSE are redeemed from the curse of sickness, and we refuse to tolerate it.
1 Peter, Chapter 2:24: Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed.
