Scripture for Hospital Visitation
For me, there is nothing more important in conducting a hospital visit with a patient than sharing an appropriate verse of Scripture. Sharing the right Bible verse will provide encouragement and hope for a Christian hospital patient and family.
Here, I want to share some Bible verses for you to choose from to share on your visit. You can share it direct by simply saying, “I want to read a verse for you” or you can include it in a prayer that you offer before leaving. However you share it is up to you and the Holy Spirit’s prompting but here are some verses to choose from…
