“O God, the source of all health; So fill [Our] hearts with faith in your love, that with calm expectancy [We] may make room for your power to possess [Us], and gracefully accept your healing; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.”

“O God of heavenly powers, by the might of your command you drive away from our bodies all sickness and all infirmity: Be present in your goodness with your servant N, that her weakness may be banished and her strength restored; and that, her health being renewed, she may bless your holy Name; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.”

“Sanctify, O Lord, those whom you have called to the study and practice of the arts of healing, and to the prevention of disease and pain. Strengthen them by your life-giving Spirit, that by their ministries the health of the community may be promoted and your creation glorified; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.” 

These prayers from The Book of Common Prayer remind me there’s one ‘Insurer’ who charges no premium and accepts all applicants’ claims.
