PRAYER FOR CRITICAL EVENT IN OUR NATION – FLOODING IN OUR NATION

Psalm 29:10-11
The Lord sits enthroned over the flood;
the Lord is enthroned as King forever.
11 The Lord gives strength to his people;
the Lord blesses his people with peace

Lord, we bring all who have been affected by the floods across this nation to You.

We pray for Your presence and comfort to be upon each of them who have lost their homes and property and are currently displaced.

We also pray for those who have been left stranded to be able to get help as soon as possible.

We pray especially for the sick, elderly and mothers with babies and young children to be kept safe under Your protection.

We pray for the government and its agencies as well as churches and NGOs to be able to mobilize food, clothing and medical attention quickly as well as open shelters for those who need them.

We also pray for the safety and protection of the volunteer and rescue teams.

We pray for the flood waters to recede and for good weather in the coming days so that people can return to their homes and recovery works can take place.

We pray all these in Jesus’ name, amen.
