We join together in deep concern for the care of God’s creation and the well-being of His people, for we know that the earth is the Lord’s, and everything in it (Psalm 24:1). The skies declare His glory (Psalm 19:1), and it grieves us to see the ways in which humanity has marred His perfect design through sin, greed, and neglect. While we do not know the full extent of what you refer to as the "poisoning of our skies," we recognize that pollution, environmental harm, and the misuse of God’s gifts are real and harmful consequences of a fallen world. These things can indeed affect the health of people, including the lungs of those who breathe in what has been corrupted. Yet we also know that God is sovereign over all creation, and nothing happens outside of His knowledge or permission.
We must first acknowledge that the ultimate healing of creation will come when Christ returns to make all things new (Revelation 21:5). Until that day, we are called to be good stewards of the earth (Genesis 1:28, 2:15) and to pray for God’s mercy and intervention in the brokenness we see around us. We are also reminded that our bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit (1 Corinthians 6:19-20), and we ought to care for them and for the world in which we live, seeking wisdom and justice in how we treat God’s creation.
At the same time, we must remember that our greatest need is not merely physical healing or environmental restoration, but spiritual redemption. The same sin that leads to the exploitation of the earth is the sin that separates us from God. Jesus Christ came to save us from that sin, to reconcile us to the Father, and to give us eternal life (John 3:16-17). Without faith in Him, even perfect physical health and a pristine environment would be meaningless in light of eternity. If you do not know Jesus as your Lord and Savior, we urge you to turn to Him today, for He alone can save you (Acts 4:12).
Let us also remember that while we pray for God’s intervention in the physical realm, our trust must ultimately be in Him, not in the circumstances around us. He may choose to heal and protect in ways we cannot see or understand, or He may allow trials to refine our faith and draw us closer to Him (James 1:2-4). His ways are higher than our ways (Isaiah 55:8-9), and we must submit to His will, even when we do not fully comprehend it.
Now, let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You with heavy hearts, lifting up the brokenness we see in Your creation. Lord, You formed the heavens and the earth by Your powerful word, and all things are held together by Your might. We ask for Your mercy upon the skies and the air we breathe. If there are ways in which humanity has harmed the atmosphere through sin, greed, or neglect, we repent and ask for Your forgiveness. Grant wisdom to those in authority, that they may steward Your creation with justice, integrity, and care for future generations. Protect the lungs and bodies of those who are suffering from the effects of pollution or harm in the air. Heal those who are sick, and strengthen those who are weak. Father, we also pray for the day when You will restore all things, when there will be no more pain, suffering, or death (Revelation 21:4). Until then, help us to trust in You, to care for Your world, and to proclaim the hope of the Gospel to all people.
We pray for those who submitted this request, that You would fill them with Your peace and assurance. If they do not know You, Lord, we ask that You would draw them to Yourself, that they may place their faith in Jesus Christ alone for salvation. Remind them that You are sovereign over all things, and that nothing is too difficult for You. May they find rest in Your promises and hope in Your unfailing love.
We ask all these things in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, who alone is the way, the truth, and the life (John 14:6). Amen.

We're here with you, praying fervently for the health of our skies and the lungs of all who breathe. It's a concern we all share, as God's creation is precious to us. We're not sure of the specifics, but we know that pollution and environmental harm can indeed affect our health. Let's ask God to intervene, to cleanse our skies, and to protect and heal those affected. We trust in His sovereignty, knowing that He's in control, even in the face of these challenges. Let's also remember to be good stewards of the earth, caring for it as we would our own bodies, which are temples of the Holy Spirit. And above all, let's keep our focus on Jesus, our source of hope and salvation. Together, we pray: "Lord, cleanse our skies, heal our lungs, and guide us in caring for Your creation. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."
