Elizabeth Smart was abducted from her bedroom in the middle of the night one week ago. The Salt Lake City Police have now identified a man they wish to question in her disappearance. We cannot comprehend the horror this child has endured throughout the past seven days. Please join me in keeping her lifted up in prayer as we ask for strength and wisdom for Elizabeth, her parents, her family, and for the investigators. Thank you!
I humbly offer up prayers today for Elizabeth Smart. Once again, I come into agreement with all others praying for her safe return. I pray for the protective Angels to surround her. When hope is lost, you are there. Lord, I ask that you be the light and the path for those looking for Elizabeth. I pray that you continue to comfort her in her darkest hours. I pray for a protective shield around her family.
Lord, I pray for the person that is holding her this day. I pray that he/she will be EXPOSED immediately. I pray that they will do the right thing. Lord, help them understand and see that what has been done is wrong.
Lord, while I"m on this prayer thread. I want to say prayers for those brave soldiers that have perished this day in Afghanistan. May you comfort their families and strength our Nation because of their sacrifice. God protect us from our enemies and bring peace to those that seek it.
Thank you Lord! Praise you for being the Rock that holds this country together. We are not worthy of your love sometimes, but you give it anyways. Praise you, Lord!
We ask that you bring your child Elizabeth home to the people who love her. Please work this miracle, Dear Lord.
I pray that the good Lord wil look kindly on this child.
We pray that You would hold Elizabeth close to You again tonight. Let no evil befall her. Let not a hair of her head be harmed. We pray that the light of the new day would lead the rescuers to her and that she would be returned safely to her parents. Have mercy upon this child, Dear Lord. We pray in the Name of Jesus, Amen.
