We pray for mercy Father...Amen
Amen.
Amen
Amen!
God Bless!
Heavenly Father, we thank you for our many blessings and ask for protection for our Gulf coast citizenry and the responders who will try to help those in trouble. Amen
thank you for this thread. my bro and sis-in-love have a home there (at least through tomorrow...). they have evacuated to monroe, about 300 miles north so should be safe from the actual storm, but who knows what they will return to. he has the right focus, though, the onlky thing that matters is eternity, but it is still hard to realize that you may lose all you own.
Dear Father, i ask a hedge of protection for the people in the path of katrina. i ask that, if it be your will, that the storm would turn and go back out to sea. barring that, i ask that there be minimal loss of life, and that you would grant peace and courage to all who are there. bless those in the coast guard who are working to safely evacuate and house those who are stranded. i ask for your grace and mercy. in Jesus's name i ask these things, amen.
Amen.
At times like this, we take comfort in knowing that you are our anchor in the storm. No matter what happens, there is nothing that we can't handle as long as our trust and faith remains in you. In Jesus name I pray. Amen!
Prayers that Katrina will just go away because I don't want to wish it on anyone else either. However, if it doesn't we ask prayers for those who will be in the direct path. I also pray they get all those people standing in line into the Super Dome!!!
Amen
Amen.
Lord have mercy.
Mark 4: 35-41 (RSV)
35 "On that day, when evening had come, he [Jesus] said to them, "Let us go across to the other side."
36 And leaving the crowd, they took him with them in the boat, just as he was. And other boats were with him.
37 And a great storm of wind arose, and the waves beat into the boat, so that the boat was already filling.
38 But he was in the stern, asleep on the cushion; and they woke him and said to him, "Teacher, do you not care if we perish?"
39 And he awoke and rebuked the wind, and said to the sea, "Peace! Be still!" And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm.
40 He said to them, "Why are you afraid? Have you no faith?"
41 And they were filled with awe, and said to one another, "Who then is this, that even wind and sea obey him?"
Prayers for the Victims of Hurricane Katrina

How about a Prayer for the Kat Hurricane folks Drstevej former freeper
O merciful Lord, please weaken this storm and protect those in harms way.
In Jesus name, Amen.
I want to add to pray for every animal, bird and all wildlife...
My prayers are with all those in the path of this storm.
May the hand of Jesus protect them and all others from the storm's rage and bring them safely to the end of this time of trouble.
So.
Thou art a good God who lovest mankind; Thou hast created us. All Thy judgements are righteous. We are the work of Thy hands. We are ungrateful and wandering sheep. We have failed to repent.
I tremble to ask that Thou would overlook our myriad sins, and have mercy on the Gulf Coast of America.
Not so sure about the "still waters" part, but this has been on my mind today:
The Holy Bible: King James Version. 2000.
The Psalms
23
The LORD Is My Shepherd
A Psalm of David.
1 The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.
2 He maketh me to lie down in green pastures:
he leadeth me beside the still waters. Rev. 7.17
3 He restoreth my soul:
he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.
4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil: for thou art with me;
thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.
5 Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies:
thou anointest my head with oil;
my cup runneth over.
6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life:
and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever.
This was their bedtime prayer.
All of you down there are in our thoughts tonight.
May His gracious intervention be recognized and appreciated.
