Order of Prayer when Praying for Ourselves and Others
(by Angie Lake)

Preparation for Prayer

Dear Lord Jesus, Please forgive me of my sins and wash me clean in your precious blood.  Allow me to bring the Good News of your salvation to the ones I will pray for.  For those who are in darkness, please let me bring your light of truth.  For those who are in need of healing please manifest your love and miracle power to remove disease and distress of all kinds.  Amen.

Blessing with oil by a Lay Person (Not a Sacrament but a Sacramental)
Use oil blessed by a Priest for this purpose

Dear Lord, we are confident that we can enter into your throne room not by our own worthiness, but on the most holy and precious blood of Jesus, to receive mercy and grace for (name).  I Bless (name) with this oil, In the Name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.  (Lay your hands on the person you are praying for.  Simply make your request known out loud to the Father in a prayer from your heart for the person.  Pray in tongues quietly if you have a prayer language.  In silence ask the Lord for discernment or help.  Listen to what the Lord speaks to your heart.  Tell the person what you sense if there is anything.  After the prayer, bless the person with the sign of the cross.)  Amen.
