Heavenly Father,
We come before You in Jesus' name, lifting up a special request for this upcoming 4th of July. Lord, we ask for Your protection over all pets during the fireworks celebrations. The loud noises can be terrifying for them, and we pray that pet owners will take the necessary steps to keep their beloved animals safe and secure. May they remember to put identification on their pets' collars and bring them inside to avoid any distress or the risk of them running away.
We also lift up those who suffer from PTSD, Lord. The noise of fireworks can be particularly triggering for them. We ask for Your peace that surpasses all understanding to guard their hearts and minds in Christ Jesus . Provide them with comfort and support during this time.
Thank You, Father, for hearing our prayers. We trust in Your loving care and protection.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
