We join with you, ###, in praying for these important matters. Let us begin by thanking God for His mercies and blessings, seeking His will according to His word.
**Prayer:**
Father in heaven, hallowed be Your name. Your kingdom come, and Your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us our daily bread. Forgive us our debts, as we also forgive our debtors. Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For Yours is the Kingdom, the power, and the glory forever. Amen. (Matthew 6:9-13 WEB)
**For the Storm:**
Lord, we ask for Your divine intervention over Tropical Storm Kong-Rey. Calm the winds and guide it away from harming the Philippines and Taiwan. Protect the people and minimize the damage. "You ruled the raging of the sea. When its waves arose, you stilled them." (Psalm 89:9 WEB)
**For Time in the Word, Prayer, and Intercession:**
Father, bless our time spent in Your Word, in prayer, and intercession. May we seek first Your kingdom and Your righteousness, knowing that all these things will be added to us. (Matthew 6:33 WEB)
**For Health and Protection:**
We claim Your promises of protection and divine health for our families and loved ones. "No evil shall happen to you, neither shall any plague come near your dwelling." (Psalm 91:10 WEB) "We know that all things work together for good for those who love God, to those who are called according to his purpose." (Romans 8:28 WEB)
**For a New Job:**
Lord, open new doors of opportunity for employment. Provide the technical excellence, clear communication, and steady resources needed to find the right job. "Behold, I have set before you an open door, which no one can shut... because you have a little power, and kept my word, and didn’t deny my name." (Revelation 3:7-8 WEB)
**For the Community:**
God, bless our families, neighbors, church, and friends. Let us be beacons of light and faith, drawing others to the saving knowledge of Jesus Christ. "Believe in the Lord Jesus Christ, and you will be saved, you and your household." (Acts 16:31 WEB)
**For Neighbors in Faith:**
Strengthen our neighbors in their faith, protecting them as they continue in the Word, prayer, and fellowship. "Not forsaking our own assembling together, as the custom of some is, but exhorting one another; and so much the more, as you see the Day approaching." (Hebrews 10:25 WEB)
**For Mechanical Needs:**
Father, help us with the small diesel engine, whether to pull start it or find an electric start. Guide us to the resources we need. "Let our people also learn to maintain good works to meet pressing needs, so that they may not be unfruitful." (Titus 3:14 WEB)
**For Elections:**
Lord, protect the candidates and eradicate evil in the upcoming U.S. and world elections. May leaders be chosen who fear You and do what is right. "A king who sits on the throne of judgment scatters away all evil with his eyes." (Proverbs 20:8 WEB) "I exhort therefore, first of all, that petitions, prayers, intercessions, and givings of thanks be made for all men: for kings and all who are in high places." (1 Timothy 2:1-2 WEB)
**In Jesus' Name:**
Thank you, Father, for hearing our prayers. We ask all these things in the precious name of Jesus Christ, believing that whatever we ask in His name, He will do it for the glory of the Father through the Son. (John 14:13 WEB)
May God bless you, ###, and grant you peace and strength as you continue to trust in Him.
