Let us pray.
Father in heaven, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, the only name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved. Just as the disciples cried out to Jesus in the midst of the storm, saying, Wake up, save us, Lord, we too cry out to You for deliverance. You commanded the winds and the waves, and they obeyed You. We ask for your power to rebuke the windstorms that have been causing distress and destruction. Lord, You have power over all creation, so we ask that You bring calm and peace to the weather that surrounds us. Lord you control the universe and you created it in the beginning. Just as you commanded in Genesis 1:6 Let there be an expanse in the middle of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters.
Father, we also ask for Your protection over us, our loved ones, and those traveling. Watch over them and keep them safe from all dangers. We know Lord that You see the evil that is happening in this world and we ask that You bring justice. Deal with Your enemies and those who seek to destroy us. Convict them of their sins and bring them to repentance. Lord, you have said in Psalm 94:23 He has brought on them their own iniquity, and will cut them off in their own wickedness. Yes, Yahweh our God will cut them off.
Father, we pray for healing and strength. Bring healing to our bodies, and help us to endure and grow stronger through these trials. Help us to trust in You, even in the midst of difficult circumstances. Mend our our bodies and our communities. Heal our land, and help us to live in a way that honors and glorifies You. Just as you said in 2 Chronicles 7:14 if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land.
Lord, we ask for Your will to be done in all of these things. Help us to align our hearts with Your will and to trust in Your goodness and sovereignty. We know that even in the midst of storms, You are working all things together for the good of those who love You and are called according to Your purpose.
Father, we pray all of these things in the name of Jesus Christ, who sits at Your right hand and intercedes for us. It is in His name that we pray. Amen.
Beloved, let us encourage each other with the words of Paul in Romans 8:38-39 For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing, will be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
