A prayer for those who serve and protect -
remembering those who perished from Prescott, AZ
Almighty God, our
refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble, look in mercy upon the
residents of Arizona. As the news breaks of the injuries, loss of life and
destruction of homes and property, sustain our faith and defend those affected
from every danger to body and soul. Lift up Your face and be gracious to them in this time of danger. Protect them,
especially those who are weak and helpless. Be with the emergency service
workers, police, fire, EMS and medical teams whose vocation is to respond in
the minutes, hours and days following these storms and fires. When they are
weak, give them strength; when afraid, courage. Turn the hearts and minds of
all to You, that they might find peace through the cleansing of Jesus' blood.
Amid the tumult of disaster, build Your kingdom and turn these suffering souls
to Yourself. For Jesus' sake, Amen.
