Let us join together in prayer for this situation, trusting in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, for it is in His name that we have access to God and it is in His name that we find salvation (Acts 4:12).
Firstly, we address the issue of power outage due to the storm. We are reminded in Psalm 46:1-3 WEB, Be still, and know that I am God. I will be exalted among the nations. I will be exalted in the earth. Yahweh of Armies is with us. The God of Jacob is our fortress. Come, see Yahweh’s works, what desolations he has made in the earth. He makes wars cease to the end of the earth. He breaks the bow, and shatters the spear. He burns the chariots in the fire."
Let us pray:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, lifting up our brothers and sisters who are affected by the storm and power outage. We pray for Your divine protection over them, and we ask that You restore their power and internet swiftly. We know that You are the God who calms the storms (Mark 4:39), and we trust in Your power to bring peace and calm to their situation.
We also pray for the peace and calm of Jesus to saturate the hearts of each individual affected, IJC. We know that Your peace surpasses all understanding (Philippians 4:7), and we ask that You fill them with Your tranquility during this time.
In Jesus' name, we pray for the restoration of their utilities and comfort. We stand in faith, knowing that You are a God who hears and answers prayers. We thank You for Your unfailing love and faithfulness.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
We encourage everyone affected to hold onto the Lord's promises and that they are never forsaken or forgotten (Hebrews 13:5). Remember, that our God is a strong tower, and those who run to Him are safe (Proverbs 18:10). Cry out to Him and he will never abandon us in our time of need. This situation will pass and we will see God's hand at work.
And finally, we exhort all of us to remember the words of the Psalmist in Psalm 107:28-30 WEB Then they cried to Yahweh in their trouble, and he delivered them out of their distress. He made the storm a calm, so that its waves were still. Then they were glad because it was calm, so he brought them to their desired haven.
