God can deliver, heal, and help anyone to recover quickly after surgery, including you, the one reading this post.
All it takes is some faith, not a lot, mind you, even a small amount as tiny as a mustard seed … is enough.
God loves you, and He wants to shower you with comfort, strength, healing, and mercy.
You’re God’s child, and an ideal candidate for healing, and especially if you or a loved one is recovering from surgery, finding this comfort, strength and healing is essential.
As such, in this blog post, I will explore a collection of powerful Bible verses that can provide solace, hope, and encouragement during this challenging time.
Let these verses serve as a source of inspiration as you seek physical and spiritual healing.
But first, allow me to take a quick look at what I consider possibly the best bible verse for healing after surgery:
Jerimiah 30:27: “But I will restore you to health and heal your wounds, declares the Lord.” And even…
Jeremiah 17:15 “Heal me, Lord, and I will be healed; save me and I will be saved, for you are the one I praise.”
Both verses reveal how the Lord has bound himself by his words to heal and restore your health after surgery.
No matter the current state of your spirit, mind, or body, God has promised to heal you.
Your heavenly Father is faithful, forgiving, merciful, loving, and compassionate.
He is with you, and I invite you to prayerfully read and meditate on each after-surgery scripture.
Daily reading of these healing scriptures after surgery can help to build your faith and draw you closer to God faster than you think.
Do you have a friend preparing to undergo surgery?
Invite them to read any of my powerful collection of pre-surgery scriptures or simply be a good Samaritan and share these verses with them.
They will thank you for it later, it’s God’s word and they need to hear it.
But for now, I would encourage you to pray for your friend.
Even a short prayer for your friend before surgery can go a long way to bring peace, hope and comfort to their spirit and soul.
God can help your friend, and He certainly can help you.
He will not fail you, as he was with you before surgery, so he will be with you after the surgery.
For this reason, allow God’s words to stir your faith as you pray for speedy recovery after a successful surgery.
God knows your post-surgery pain, feelings, and thoughts you imagine daily.
You’ve gone through “hell and back.” Maybe you came face to face with death and thought this is it, you’re not coming back.
Or maybe you had an encounter with angels or even Jesus and he told you that you will live to declare his words.
Either way, you’re still going through a lot, but don’t lose heart, your faith in God will see you through this season of anguish and pain.
It wasn’t easy preparing for your operation, and I’m sure that you of all persons would know this too well, but thank God you’ve made it out alive.
The Bible has a word for everyone, and these words express God’s thoughts and will for our lives at various stages of life.
“Healing is your portion.” It was made available to anyone who believes in the finished work of Jesus Christ our Lord.
Do you believe that the Lord can heal and restore you speedily? I dare you to believe it.
Moreover, you’re not alone; many other believers found themselves in similar situations where they underwent major surgeries and then had to believe in God for their healing.
And this wasn’t the easiest thing for them to do, given that they were constantly in pain.
But to God be the glory, they believed and confessed these scriptures and saw miraculous results. You too can do the same starting today.
I’ve compiled a collection of comforting after-surgery scriptures that you can use to invite God’s healing power to restore your health.
Bible Verses After Surgery for Healing
God loves you, he has your best interest at heart, he is with you, and as such, we’ve rounded up the following 19 Bible verses for healing after surgery to build your faith strong in God.
Isaiah 41:10
“Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.”
Isaiah 40:29
“He giveth power to the faint; and to them that have no might he increaseth strength.”
Isaiah 38:17
“Behold, for peace I had great bitterness: but thou hast in love to my soul delivered it from the pit of corruption: for thou hast cast all my sins behind thy back.”
Isaiah 57:18-19
“I have seen his ways, and will heal him: I will lead him also, and restore comforts unto him and to his mourners.

Jeremiah 30:17 – God will restore your health
“But I will restore you to health and heal your wounds, declares the Lord.”
God is not a man that He should lie to you, nor is He the son of man that He should change His mind.
Let’s begin this list with a good Bible verse after surgery (Jeremiah 30:17) “But I will restore you to health and heal your wounds, declares the Lord.”
God will restore your health, whether you are recovering from cancer, kidney failure, or heart surgery, you can rest assured that God will help you to recover quickly.
The Lord is faithful, his promises are yea and amen, and his words are settled in heaven.
Call on the Lord today so that his words can be established in your life.
Psalm 31:9, 14-15 – God is merciful
“Be merciful to me, Lord, for I am in distress; my eyes grow weak with sorrow, my soul and body with grief.” “But I trust in you, Lord; I say, ‘You are my God.’ My times are in your hands.”
Healing and recovery may look a long way off, but God will see you through this journey.
Don’t mind the devil and his lies, he is merely trying to get you to doubt God, but don’t believe him, God has you covered.
Also, this Psalm is a wonderful prayer Bible verse for surgery that you can pray after the operation.
It’s your reminder to God that you’re imperfect and helpless without his grace and mercy.
Psalm 147:3 – God will bind up your wounds after surgery
“He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds.”
God has committed himself to healing every broken heart.
No matter the illness, He has healed every sickness and disease through the finished work of Jesus Christ and by the power of the Holy Spirit working in us.
Psalm 6:2-4 – God will answer your prayers
“Have mercy on me, Lord, for I am faint; heal me, Lord, for my bones are in agony. My soul is in deep anguish.
How long, Lord, how long? Turn, Lord, and deliver me; save me because of your unfailing love.”
The Lord will have mercy upon you; his unfailing love is unconditional.
Simply believe and accept his forgiveness, love, healing, and precious promises made available to you.
Psalm 107:19-20 – God is committed to helping you
“Then they cried to the Lord in their trouble, and he saved them from their distress. He sent out his word and healed them.”
Healing is God’s children’s bread. Have faith, obey, and partner with the Holy Spirit to see God’s healing power at work in your life.
Psalm 73:26 – God is your strength
“My flesh and my heart may fail, but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever.”
God is greater than your flesh. Don’t allow your physical condition to undermine your faith in the Lord.
God can bring life into every dead and hopeless situation. So declare this Psalm over your life to see the power of God to heal every sickness and weakness in your body.
Psalm 34: 19-20 – This too will pass
“Many are the afflictions of the righteous, but the LORD delivers him out of them all. He keeps all his bones; not one of them is broken.”
Your afflictions will soon pass; though they may seem overwhelming right now, God will deliver you from them all.
Psalm 16: 1-2 – God will preserve you
“Preserve me, O God, for in you I take refuge. I say to the LORD, ‘You are my Lord; I have no good apart from you.’”
The Lord will preserve you, but I encourage you to make him your only hiding place.
Your heavenly father has you covered; trust and follow him even when you don’t see and feel his presence with you.
Also, you can call on a friend, family member, pastor, or a prayer warrior who is an intercessor to pray for you.
Psalm 41: 4 – God will heal you
“As for me, I said, ‘O LORD, be gracious to me; heal me, for I have sinned against you!’”
Even if you have committed sins, God will have mercy and forgive you; yes, He will heal you if you believe.
There isn’t anything in heaven or on earth that has the power to cause God to stop loving you.
He loves you more than you can ever imagine. See what Romans 8:35–39 has to say about God’s love for you:
“35 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?
36 As it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.
37 Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us.
38 For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come,
39 Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.”
Psalm 109:30 – Give God thanks
“With my mouth, I will give great thanks to the Lord.”
Don’t forget that even in your pain, you need to praise God.
Set aside time to praise our God because, as a child of God, the bible encourages us to always be thankful and to:
“Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, and his courts with praise: be thankful unto him, and bless his name.” Psalm 100:4.
Psalm 23: 1-4 – The Lord is your Shepherd
“The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.
He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake.
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.”
What more can God say; this verse reassures you that God have you covered.
He has committed Himself to be with you, and has sent his holy spirit to guide you no matter what condition you may find yourself in.
I encourage you to obey him and seek his wisdom, knowledge, and understanding.
Jeremiah 17:14 – The Lord will heal and also deliver you
“Heal me, O Lord, and I will be healed; save me and I will be saved, for you are the one I praise.”
Please do not take praising God lightly, as you can see in this verse that healing follows praise.
When praise goes up, the blessings of healing will flow to you quicker than you thought was possible.
Go ahead, Praise the Lord and declare these powerful Sunday blessings to start every new week.
James 5: 14-15 – Ask others to pray for and with you
“Is anyone among you sick? Let them call the elders of the church to pray over them and anoint them with oil in the name of the Lord.
And the prayer offered in faith will make the sick person well; the Lord will raise them up. If they have sinned, they will be forgiven.”
Call on other saints to pray for you; God instructed us to do so, see James 5:17.
Moreover, in Matthew 18:19, Jesus said that if two on earth agree in prayer concerning anything in his name, he will do it.
Exodus 23:25 – The Lord is faithful
“Worship the LORD your God, and his blessing will be on your food and water. I will take away sickness from among you.”
Worship to God is powerful; not only will God heal your body and bring a quick recovery after surgery, but He will bless you in other areas of your life.
Our heavenly father desires that we become like him and be fruitful, which means that he doesn’t only want to heal you but to bless you in every area of your life.
