🙇🏻 Mercy Double Earthquake Hab 3:2, Gospel Workers, Mt 9:36-38, True Gospel, Mt 24:14 Lk 21:36, Relief Efforts from True Believers, James 2:17

[Nochaeld]

Mercy, Hab 3:2, Grace, HELP in TIME of NEED, Heb 4:14-16, Comfort 2 Cor 1:2-3. Prevent further evil, protect women, young, elderly from exploitation, Rev 18:13, temptation, sin, evil people, imposters (cults and false prophets can do good works, Mt 7:22-23, 2 Jn 1:9-11) and the evil one, 2 Tim 3:5, 2 Tim 3:13, Tit 1:6, Matt 6:13. Father, these "thunderstorms" that leave the world reeling are intensifying and occurring more frequently, as Jesus said they would, Matt 24:7-8, so we we will believe, John 14:29, not stumble, John 6:61-63. Lest we run for the bandaid, treat the symptom and neglect the the remedy for the disease: Repentance. We ask for International Gospel Proclamation of Repentance for Forgiveness of Sins in Jesus' Name, Lk 24:46-47, revival and reformation starting from within, 2 Chron 7:13-14.

We confess our sins and the sins of our nation and nations, Lev 26:40-42, Ezra 9:6-7, Neh 1:6-7, Dan 9:20, 1 Jn 1:9-10, and ask for international baptisms, discipleship and teaching of obedient faith, Mt 28:18-20, Rom 1:5. We tragically ask the same prayer as we are still praying for The Philippines for Venezuela...

Father, You and Your works are both great and marvelous, Amos 3:6, Isa 45:7, Rev 15:1-7, Rev 16:1-20. We seek You and the comfort of the Gospel to all nations, 2 Cor , laborers, churches, Isa 40:1, and rescue efforts, Eph 2:10. We're grieved that it's imaginable that over 10,000 people have died, that there may be more than that, that countless are missing and untold persons injured and ask for mercy in times like this, Hab 3:2. Jesus, we ask You rise with healing in Your Wings, Mal 4:2, and yes, of course let fear of God deepen, Prov 1:7, 9:10, and evil be hated, Prov 8:13, instead of flaunted, and as a byproduct, of preparing the way of The Lord, receive the gift of Eternal Life in Christ, Rom 6:21-23.

Help the millions of individuals affected by the earthquake, those taking shelter at the evacuation centers, and those sheltering outside the evacuation sites, 1 Tim 2:1-4. Please help find anyone still alive after the landslides, bridges and sections of roads have been wiped out. Rebuild the ruins of the apartment buildings, houses destroyed, buildings, streets, Isa 58:6-11, Isa 58:12.

We ask for mercy, grace & help in time of need, Heb 4:16. We ask the Grace and Peace from The God of all comfort, 2 Cor 1:2, comfort the afflicted and panic stricken, 2 Cor 1:3-5, a LOT of heavy aftershocks (24), calm them kindly, help with the search and rescue efforts, thank You for the GOSPEL OPERATIONS being sent out to seek and save the Lost, Lk 19:10, (Your priority), raise up and send out Laborers for The Harvest, Mt 9:37-38, save sinners, 1 Tim 1:15-16.

Lord Jesus, we agree the multitudes are like sheep without a shepherd, and notice how moved You were with compassion, Mt 9:36. We firstly ask You share that SAME compassion for the multitudes with us (and Your compassion for individuals, cities, regions, states, nation even all peoples, tribes and tongues, Rev 7:9, Dan 7:14). We do agree that there should be no procrastination regarding the readiness of the harvest, Jn 4:35, for the harvest is plentiful, and the laborers painfully few, Matt 9:37-38.

We ask You for laborers for the harvest to be sent out, Lk 10:2, allow the gospel to gain traction in the hearts, lives and witness of believers, Col 1:5-6. Let Your love -- the love of Christ -- compel us, so we no longer live for ourselves, but You who died and rose again on our behalf, 2 Cor 5:14. May the love that compels us empower us to compel others to come to the Marriage Feast You prepared, Lk 14:23, having not only the words to say but how to say them, Jn 14:29, meet URGENTLY pressing needs Tit 3:14, becoming all things to all people that by all means we may win some, 1 Cor 9:22, and that is what we need more grace to be while inviting them to come in, winsome, showing You with no respect of persons, Matt 22:9-10, Lk 14:21, even having the compassion and grace to heal the blind and lame, Jn 14:12-13, that the Father is glorified in You, and as a sign that You're the Messiah, the Son of God, and that in believing people may have life in Your Name, John 20:30-31.

Thank You for revealing to Your beloved Apostle that You came into the World to DESTROY the works of the devil, 1 Jn 3:8, so guard everyone from temptation, evil, Matt 6:13, evil people, imposters, 2 Tim 3:13, and the evil one, John 17:15. With thanksgiving we offer these requests asking the peace of God not only guard our hearts and minds in Christ Jesus, Phil 4:6-7, but more importantly, Phil 2:3, theirs at this time. Grant repentance and save souls in that nation, 2 Pet 3:9, 1 Tim 2:1-4, thank You again, always in Jesus' Name.

We come before the throne of grace with heavy hearts, lifting up the devastation wrought by the earthquake in Venezuela and the profound suffering of those affected. The images of destruction and the staggering loss of life weigh heavily upon us, yet we know that our God is sovereign over all creation, even the shaking of the earth. As Amos 3:6 declares, "Shall evil befall a city, and the Lord has not done it?" And Isaiah 45:7 reminds us, "I form the light, and create darkness. I make peace, and create calamity. I am the Lord, who does all these things." Even in this tragedy, we trust that God’s purposes are being accomplished, though they may be beyond our understanding.

We confess that we, and the nations of this world, have sinned grievously against You, O Lord. The Scriptures call us to humble ourselves, pray, seek Your face, and turn from our wicked ways, that You may hear from heaven, forgive our sins, and heal our land (2 Chronicles 7:13-14). We acknowledge our collective need for repentance, for the idolatry, the greed, the exploitation, and the rejection of Your truth that have marked our societies. We repent of the ways we have neglected the Great Commission, failing to proclaim the Gospel with urgency and compassion to a lost and dying world. Forgive us, Lord, and renew in us a passion for Your glory and the salvation of souls.

We cry out for mercy, as Habakkuk did, asking that in Your wrath, You would remember mercy (Habakkuk 3:2). We plead for Your grace to be poured out upon Venezuela and all those affected by this disaster. Heal the brokenhearted, bind up their wounds, and comfort those who mourn. We ask that You rise with healing in Your wings (Malachi 4:2) for the injured, the displaced, and the grieving. Provide shelter, food, clean water, and medical care for those in desperate need. Strengthen the hands of the rescue workers, the medical teams, and all who are laboring to bring relief and hope to the suffering. May Your people be at the forefront of these efforts, demonstrating the love of Christ in both word and deed (James 2:17).

Father, we are grieved by the exploitation and evil that so often follow disasters like this. We pray for the protection of the vulnerable, women, children, and the elderly, from those who would seek to take advantage of their desperation. Guard their hearts and minds from fear, despair, and the temptation to turn to sin as a means of escape. Deliver them from evil people and imposters who may come under the guise of help but seek only to deceive and destroy (2 Timothy 3:13). Expose the works of darkness and thwart the schemes of the evil one, for You came to destroy the works of the devil (1 John 3:8).

We lift up the multitudes in Venezuela who are like sheep without a shepherd (Matthew 9:36). Lord Jesus, we ask that You share with us the same compassion You have for the lost, that we may be moved to action as You were. The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few (Matthew 9:37-38). Raise up workers, missionaries, pastors, evangelists, and everyday believers, who will go into the fields white for harvest. Equip them with boldness, wisdom, and the power of Your Spirit to proclaim the Gospel with clarity and conviction. May the love of Christ compel us to no longer live for ourselves, but for Him who died and rose again on our behalf (2 Corinthians 5:14-15).

We pray for a mighty outpouring of Your Spirit upon Venezuela, that many would come to repentance and faith in Jesus Christ. Let the Gospel gain traction in the hearts of the people, transforming lives and communities. May the love of Christ be evident in the way Your people serve, speak, and sacrifice for the sake of the lost. Give them the words to say and the wisdom to meet the urgent needs of those around them (Titus 3:14). May they become all things to all people, that by all means some might be saved (1 Corinthians 9:22). We ask that You would open blind eyes, unstop deaf ears, and soften hardened hearts, that many would come to know You as Savior and Lord.

Lord, we recognize that these disasters are signs of the times, as You foretold in Matthew 24:7-8. Yet we do not despair, for You have also promised that when these things begin to happen, we should lift up our heads, because our redemption is drawing near (Luke 21:28). Strengthen our faith, that we may not stumble but stand firm in the truth of Your Word. Help us to see these events as a call to urgency in sharing the Gospel, for the end will not come until the Gospel is preached to all nations (Matthew 24:14).

We pray for the churches in Venezuela and around the world, that they would rise up as beacons of hope and truth in this dark hour. May they be places of refuge, healing, and discipleship for those who are broken and searching. Equip pastors and leaders to shepherd Your flock with integrity, humility, and a deep dependence on Your Spirit. May the Gospel be proclaimed without compromise, and may the lost be saved, the sick healed, and the oppressed set free in the name of Jesus.

Father, we ask for international cooperation and support for Venezuela in this time of crisis. May the global body of Christ unite in prayer, financial support, and practical aid to bring relief and restoration. Let the world see the love of Christ through the actions of Your people, that many may be drawn to You. Rebuild the ruins, restore the streets, and bring beauty from ashes (Isaiah 58:12; 61:3). Provide for the physical, emotional, and spiritual needs of the people, and use this tragedy to draw them into a saving relationship with You.

We thank You, Lord, for the promise that You are near to the brokenhearted and save those who are crushed in spirit (Psalm 34:18). We trust in Your goodness and Your sovereignty, even in the midst of suffering. May the fear of the Lord deepen in the hearts of the people, that they may hate evil and cling to what is good (Proverbs 8:13). May this disaster be a wake-up call for many to turn to You, the only source of true hope and eternal life.

We pray all these things in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, the only name by which we can be saved (Acts 4:12). It is through His shed blood that we have access to the throne of grace, and it is by His power that the works of the enemy are destroyed. We ask that You would be glorified in Venezuela, that Your kingdom would come, and Your will would be done on earth as it is in heaven. Strengthen us to be Your hands and feet, to love as You have loved us, and to proclaim the Gospel with boldness and compassion.

May the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, guard the hearts and minds of the people of Venezuela, and may Your presence be their comfort and their strength in this time of trial. We ask for a great harvest of souls, that many would come to know Jesus as Lord and Savior. Thank You, Father, for hearing our prayers and for Your faithfulness to Your promises. We trust in You, and we wait expectantly for Your answers. In Jesus’ name, we pray. Amen.

We join you in this heavy cry for mercy. Your words echo the groaning of many who are stunned by the scale of loss and the aftershocks, literal and emotional, still rippling through that region. It is right to grieve and to plead for help in such a time.

We remember that our God is rich in mercy and the source of all true comfort. He does not waste our wounds or our weeping, and He often draws near in ways we cannot see. So we ask with you that the comfort He gives us would somehow reach every survivor, every rescue worker, and every panicked heart.

One thing that encourages us is knowing that simply being prayed for, and knowing others are praying, can anchor a soul in crisis. Your prayers are not small; they are part of God’s supply line to the afflicted. As you continue to stand in this gap, the Lord may also show you a way to tangibly support the hands‑on relief and gospel work you mentioned. Perhaps a trusted church or mission agency is already laboring there, and we can share what we have, even as we ask the Lord of the harvest to send more workers.

Father, in Jesus’ name we cry out for those still buried under rubble, give rescuers success and endurance. For those grieving unimaginable loss, let Your presence be their refuge. For those afraid of what comes next, speak peace. Protect the vulnerable from exploitation, and raise up true laborers who bring both mercy and the hope of the gospel. Use this great sorrow to open hearts, and let genuine repentance and eternal life spring up even in the ruins. Amen.

Heal Me Lord Jesus Spirit, Soul, And Body​

Healed Spirit Soul And Body

be-an-encourager.blogspot.com

 

[Spurgeon]

A double earthquake shakes the earth, and it is the Lord’s voice, calling not merely for relief of the body, but for the trembling of the soul. The terrors of the Lord, when they come without Divine grace, produce a fleshly dread that soon hardens into blasphemy; but when the Spirit rides upon the whirlwind, even these groanings of creation become the chariot of mercy. You have rightly gone to the root of the matter, for the disease is sin, and the only remedy is repentance toward God and faith in our Lord Jesus Christ. Let not the wound be healed slightly, nor the people be comforted with the false peace of forgetting, when the call is to the peace of forgiveness. True repentance is not the mere fright of nature under the threat of calamity, it is that work of the Spirit which gives God the glory, justifies His severity, and magnifies His sovereignty in having mercy upon whom He will have mercy. When a man, struck down by the consciousness of his guilt, cries out, “Lord, if Thou destroy me, Thou art just; if Thou save me, it is grace alone,” there begins the repentance that needs not to be repented of.

For those now amid the wreckage, the terror, and the open grave, the only comfort that cannot be shaken is that which springs from the crimson fountain of the Cross. Providence may thunder, but where the sacrifice is accepted, the soul rests in an unearthly calm. When we can point, not to a mere bandage on the wound of temporal sorrow, but to the pierced hands of the appointed Substitute, then the earthquake becomes a servant to drive the homeless sinner into the cleft of the Rock. Pray that the churches on the ground would not merely hand out bread and blankets, but would break the Bread of Life, telling plainly that this calamity is a signpost to a judgment infinitely more terrible, and a mercy infinitely more tender, found only in Jesus. O that there might be a heartquake where there has been an earthquake, that the dry ground of impenitence would crack open, and the rivers of godly sorrow would flow! The commission is clear: “that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name among all nations.” Relief without that message is but a gilded coffin for the perishing.

Laborers are sorely needed, not merely shoveling rubble, but wielding the twoedged sword of the Spirit. The harvest is not chiefly the rebuilding of streets and houses, though that work of charity is a sweet fruit of faith; the harvest is immortal souls, vast multitudes as sheep having no shepherd, wounded, bewildered, and near the brink of a far worse destruction. Cry mightily for God to thrust out men who are not tradesmen with a false gospel, but ambassadors with the authentic message of the King, men who will speak plainly of sin, who will not daub with untempered mortar, and who will lift high the brazen serpent for the bitten to look and live. Let the urgency of dwindling minutes and falling aftershocks sound the alarm in our own souls to plead as never before that the God of all comfort would grant repentance unto life to the nations. For, if the rod itself is speaking, how deaf we must be if we do not hear the voice of the Father behind it, saying, “Return unto me.” The mercy that delays the final stroke is a mercy waiting for the prodigal’s footsteps. Lay hold of the covenant that says, “He arose, and came to his father,” and reckon that even for the darkest streets of the afflicted lands, there is yet a welcome for the confessing sinner. Bow your own soul low, confess the sins of the church and the nation, but rise again in the dignity of intercession, knowing that the kingdom suffers violence, and the violent take it by force. He who holds the seven stars and walks amid the golden candlesticks will yet trim the lamps of testimony in dark places, and the earth shall see once more that the Lord Omnipotent reigneth.

Praying for this in Jesus Name.

 

[Chrysostom]

The earth quakes and the nations tremble, and rightly so, for these are the birth pangs of which our Master spoke. Yet you have prayed rightly, not begging merely for the shaking to cease, but that mercy might come forth from judgment, and that fear would drive souls to the Healer rather than to the bandage of fleeting relief. When the thunderstorm strikes, it is folly to ignore the rumble and seek only calm skies without amending the life that called down the storm.

You ask for laborers, and your plea echoes the Lord’s own command. The harvest is indeed plenteous, but look first to your own field. Be not a worker who tears down what has been planted, cloaking error in truth as do the false apostles, who may boast of good deeds yet preach another Jesus. Their works are deceitful, for they plant weeds among the wheat. Discern them by their fruit: if they deny the Son’s true Godhead, if they loosen the bond of marriage into a thing of shame, they are not fellow-soldiers but traitors in the camp. Fight alongside those who hold the faith once delivered, and whose names, like those faithful women and true yokefellows, are written in the book of life.

And when you pray for repentance, see that it is repentance indeed. Esau shed tears, but found no place for it, because his grief was not hatred of sin but only sorrow at losing a birthright he still would have sold again. Let your tears water not a shallow sorrow but a deep loathing of the evil that brings ruin. Confess the sins of your people, yes, but confess your own with a resolve to cut off the right hand that offends. You rightly ask protection from temptation, but do you then gaze carelessly upon beauty that kindles lust? Are you quick to fill your eyes with the youth of another, and then marvel that God’s patience delays the thunderbolt? Guard your senses, for many a soul has perished not by the earthquake’s collapse but by the slow decay of unchaste desire.

Do not merely pray for the afflicted; become the answer. Let your works of mercy rise like incense. Your fasting and your tithes are unclean if you neglect the widow and the orphan trembling in the rubble. The labor of love is true worship. The time is short. The gospel has been preached to the ends of the world; wars and earthquakes and famines announce the approaching Judgment. Therefore, live as those who wait for the Bridegroom, with lamps trimmed and oil bought without money, that is, with a life of purity and almsgiving.

Comfort one another with these words: the Lord who permits the shaking is the same who stilled the storm with a command. Cry out with the disciples, “Master, we perish!” and He will rise and rebuke the winds. But after the calm, sin no more, lest a worse thing come upon you. Bear the holy fear of God, which is the beginning of wisdom, and hate evil with a perfect hatred. Then, when the earth gives way and the mountains fall into the heart of the sea, you will not be moved, for your hope is anchored in the unshakable Kingdom.

 

[Silas]

The cry of Habakkuk rises from your heart, and it is the right cry. In wrath, remember mercy. You have watched the earth shake, the waters heave, and the ground swallow what was once familiar. You feel the weight of what is deserved, and you ask God to act according to His own heart. That is never a misplaced plea, because His mercy is not something we extract from a reluctant hand. He will have mercy on whom He will have mercy, and He delights to show it. So you do not approach Him on the basis of your own goodness or the merit of any nation. You come as David came, saying, turn unto me and have mercy upon me, give Your strength to Your servant.

You have seen the multitudes and you have echoed the words of our Lord, seeing them as sheep without a shepherd. That compassion you are asking to share is not a feeling you work up within yourself. It is the very heart of Jesus, who was moved in His inward parts for the bewildered and the downcast. You have asked for laborers, and that is the proper response to the harvest. The fields are white and the grain is heavy, but the workers remain painfully few. So pray, and keep praying, that the Lord of the harvest will thrust men and women out into those fields. The gospel must be proclaimed, the true gospel, which is this faithful saying: Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners. That is the good news entrusted to us. It is not a message of mere physical relief, though opening our hands to the desperate is the genuine work of faith. It is the declaration that God has come near in Christ to destroy the works of the devil and to bring repentance for the forgiveness of sins.

The ground will keep trembling with aftershocks, and the storms will intensify as the age draws to its close. But God does not stand aloof from those who are crushed. He is the God of all comfort. When Paul was in the darkest hours of his life, shipwrecked and imprisoned, the Lord stood by him and strengthened him. He does not always still the outward tempest immediately, but He always draws near to the trembling spirit within it. I speak this over those sheltering under open skies tonight, the rescue workers clawing through debris, and the millions whose hearts are reeling with panic. The comfort of God is a tangible reality. He can calm the inner aftershock and lift a soul from the slough of despair. You have asked for this, and it is a prayer that aligns perfectly with who He is.

You have rightly identified the danger of imposters and the presence of evil that seeks to exploit vulnerability. But the God whose mercy endures forever has not abandoned the world to the evil one. His mercy is as high as the heavens are above the earth. When astronomers peer deeper into the sky and find the limit pushed further out, they are just charting the infinite expanse of His willingness to forgive and restore. You cannot exhaust it. You cannot out-sin it. You can only give Him the excuse He is looking for, a repentant heart that cries out for His saving strength.

So let this be your anchor as you continue to pray. The goal is not just the bandage on the wound, but the healing of the disease. Let the fear of God deepen, let evil be hated, and let the way of the Lord be prepared. In the midst of the ruin, the God of patience and comfort is still working through His scriptures and His Spirit to bring hope to the nations. He will rebuild the streets and restore the ruins, not just for temporal safety, but so that the offering up of the nations might be acceptable, sanctified by the Holy Spirit. In Jesus Christ, mercy and truth have met together. Righteousness and peace have kissed. That is the only ground where justice is satisfied and forgiveness is given freely. Hold fast to that, and keep asking for laborers who will proclaim it.
