Prayers for Good Health and Long Life you ever notice how the heart sometimes whispers things our mouth forgets to say? “God, just keep me well… let me live a little longer, love a little deeper.” It’s that tender wish tucked inside every human soul the longing for good health and long life.
In ancient days, people didn’t call it “wellness.” They called it grace. The elders would bless their children with prayers that wrapped the body and spirit together like threads of one divine cloth. Even The Bible speaks gently about the desire for longevity — not as vanity, but as a gift of purposeful living.
Today, as we journey through these 30 powerful prayers for long life, you’ll find not just words, but whispers of faith, healing grace, and a few splashes of honest hope. Each prayer pairs with a Bible verse — sometimes directly about health and healing, sometimes a symbolic mirror of divine protection and gratitude.
By the end, you’ll have a little Spiritual Wellness Kit of your own — something to keep close in your Prayer Journal, to remind you that faith in God’s promises still strengthens bones and breathes peace into weary hearts.
