Prayer

We are deeply grieved to hear about this violent act and the suffering it has caused. Our hearts go out to this young man, his family, and all those affected by this tragedy. In times like these, we are reminded of the brokenness of our world and the desperate need for the peace and hope that only Jesus Christ can provide.

First, we must lift up this situation in the name of Jesus, for it is only through Him that we can approach the throne of God with our burdens. The Scriptures remind us in John 14:6, *"Jesus said to him, 'I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me.'"* There is no other name under heaven by which we can be saved, and it is in His name that we boldly come before God, seeking His mercy and healing.

We also recall the words of Jesus in Matthew 5:44, *"But I tell you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who mistreat you and persecute you."* While we do not know the circumstances surrounding this shooting, we are called to pray not only for the victim but also for the perpetrator, that they may come to repentance and the knowledge of the truth. Violence is never the answer, and we must seek God’s justice and mercy in all things.

For this young man who has been shot, we pray earnestly for God’s healing hand to be upon him. Psalm 147:3 tells us, *"He heals the broken in heart, and binds up their wounds."* We ask that the Lord would bring complete restoration to his body, mind, and spirit. May the medical professionals attending to him be guided by God’s wisdom and skill. We also pray for supernatural peace to flood his heart, that he would feel the presence of the Lord with him in this time of pain and fear. If he does not know Jesus as his Savior, we pray that this trial would open his heart to the Gospel, that he would turn to Christ in faith and receive the gift of eternal life.

For his family and loved ones, we ask that the Lord would be their strength and comfort. Psalm 34:18 assures us, *"Yahweh is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves those who have a crushed spirit."* May they feel the arms of the Lord holding them up as they wait and trust in Him. We pray that they would not be overcome by fear or anger but would find their hope in the sovereign goodness of God, who works all things together for good for those who love Him (Romans 8:28).

We also lift up the university community affected by this violence. May the Lord bring unity and peace among the students, faculty, and staff. We pray that this tragedy would open doors for the Gospel to be shared, that many would turn to Christ in search of answers and find the hope that only He can provide. Let this be a time where the light of Christ shines brightly in the darkness, drawing people to Himself.

Lastly, we pray for our nation and our world, where violence and evil seem to be increasing. We cry out to the Lord, as Habakkuk did in Habakkuk 1:2-3, *"Yahweh, how long will I cry, and you will not hear? I cry out to you 'Violence!' and will you not save? Why do you show me iniquity, and look at perversity? For destruction and violence are before me. There is strife, and contention rises up."* Yet, even in our crying out, we trust in the Lord’s promises. We know that He is just and that He will one day put an end to all suffering and evil. Until that day, we are called to be His ambassadors of peace and reconciliation, sharing the hope of the Gospel with a lost and hurting world.

Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, lifting up this young man who has been shot. Lord, we ask for Your healing power to flow through him, restoring him completely. Be with the doctors and nurses, guiding their hands and giving them wisdom. Comfort his family and loved ones, Lord, and draw them close to You. We pray that through this trial, Your name would be glorified and that many would come to know You as their Savior.

We also pray for the one who committed this act of violence. Lord, if they do not know You, we ask that You would convict their heart and lead them to repentance. Softening their heart to receive Your forgiveness and grace. Bring justice, Lord, but also bring redemption.

Father, we ask for Your peace to cover the university and all those affected by this tragedy. May this be a turning point where many seek Your face and find the hope that is only found in Jesus Christ. We pray for our nation, that You would bring revival and turn the hearts of people back to You.

We trust in Your goodness and Your sovereignty, even in the midst of suffering. Help us to be lights in this dark world, sharing Your love and truth with those around us. In Jesus’ precious name, we pray. Amen.
