A Prayer for Hurricane Victims
Lord, you who calmed the storm at sea, quiet the fears, ease the pain, tend the grief, and light the darkness of your children. In stunned silence, be their voice In rages against the night, be their balm, In bewilderment, be their hope. Lead rescuers to the lost, shelter the waiting. Sustain those who work to make life’s necessities spring forth in this desert of gloom, Blanket the weary with your tender touch. Shake us from our comforts to share our siblings sorrow and pray them into new life. We ask this in the name of Jesus who suffered.
Amen!

A Prayer For Godly Discernment
Father, You have given to some the spiritual gift of discernment, and for others it’s the years of reading the Scriptures, listening to godly teaching and walking in obedience to You that discernment has characterized our faith journey. We want to be observant, understanding, and discerning about our times, so that we are prepared to do battle with the enemy and show others the way to eternal life. Amen.

A Prayer For True Worshipers
Jesus, You teach us that our act of worship is not confined to a cathedral setting nor does it require professional ministerial training to carry out true worship. It comes from the heart of the true believer who acknowledges that You are the long awaited Messiah, the One who is called Christ. We worship You in Spirit, for though we cannot humanly see or touch You, we come to You in complete sincerity with a spirit that is directed by the life and activity of the Holy Spirit. We worship You in truth because union with You requires believing and speaking the truth. May we be the kind of worshipers that pleases the heart of the Father. Amen.
1 Peter 4:8
“Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins.”
