8. Prayers for Hearts Turned Toward God
Slide 8 of 8
Dear God,
Lastly, we pray that people would yield their hearts to You during this time. We know that when life brings trial, be it from natural disasters or hardships, we are not without hope. We pray the promise of 1 Peter 5:10 for those in Helene’s aftermath, “And after you have suffered a little while, the God of all grace, who has called you to his eternal glory in Christ, will himself restore, confirm, strengthen, and establish you.”
Lord, we pray that You would receive the glory and final word of this disaster. We pray that the victims would have a story to tell, not one of defeat but of victory, miracles, and redemption through Your Holy Spirit. We pray that Your comfort in a time of need would be what is remembered and told of this storm. We pray for the kind of accounts that only You could write. We pray hearts, minds, and spirits will come to You in this time, and we pray for the salvation of those who will hear from their reports. Help us to remain diligent in prayer for others during this time and lean upon our spirits as to how You would desire us to be the hands and feet of Jesus in this situation.
In Jesus Name,
Amen
