Oh God
There are so many wanting and desperately needing to get home. They’re at a loss for what to do and there is resistance to them leaving and returning; systems and procedures preventing and some aiding. Only you know the timings, Lord, so please give ascent so they may safely flee to their homeland.
There’s one who cannot leave, Father, and they are petrified of the thought that they will not get home. “How, Lord, did this turn so quick?” they are thinking. Give this one wise bearing amid their panicked confusion.
For the mind, I pray, protection, against the wiles of the enemy who would have bewilderment reign. Make peace reign, Jesus. Your peace. Make it flow in and over these ones, giving them the faith they need at these calamitous increments in time.
We pray your Spirit would sway authorities with reasonable and discerning compassion, and that your divine intervention would become apparent in the immediacy of a miraculous action.
We pray for a covenant sense of your holy dominion to be with these ones, and their families safe at home, a touch of your presence, and an infilling of your Spirit over them all.
Give your power to these ones amid that moment of action. Give them faith even as they move.
Continue to give them every good thing that they need, their motivation, their self-control, their ability to endure, their food, their water, their very breath.
For the hardest moments that bear down like an iron press, Lord, by your grace and the power of your Spirit, lift that crushing weight off the heart and mind of these precious ones.
For protection within the bounds of all their relationships, and for the right words where they’re required, and for exactly the right kind of action externally, for wisdom and discernment, I pray.
I pray in faith that you can do all things, because you can, and so I know you can do this thing!
I thank you in advance of answered prayer and praise you for the fact you care so much about us that you would do this thing by your sovereign and mighty hand.
Lord Jesus, I pray this in your most sacrificial and loving name!
AMEN.
