We come before the Lord with hearts full of gratitude that you have lifted this request in the name of Jesus, for it is only through Him that we have access to the Father. Your prayer reflects a deep care for God’s creation, and we join you in seeking His will for all living things, knowing that He is sovereign over every creature.
The Scriptures remind us in Genesis 1:25 that *"God made the animals of the earth after their kind, and the livestock after their kind, and everything that creeps on the ground after its kind. God saw that it was good."* The Lord has entrusted humanity with stewardship over His creation, and we are called to care for it wisely. Yet we also know that His purposes are higher than ours, and His ways are perfect, even when we do not fully understand them.
While we pray for the preservation of these creatures, we must also remember that our ultimate hope is not in the things of this world—whether animals, possessions, or even our own lives—but in Christ alone. Jesus tells us in Matthew 6:26, *"See the birds of the sky, that they don’t sow, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns. Your heavenly Father feeds them. Aren’t you of much more value than they?"* How much more does He care for us, His children, than for the creatures of the earth?
Let us pray together for God’s will to be done, trusting that He holds all things in His hands.
**Heavenly Father, we lift this request before You, acknowledging that You are the Creator and Sustainer of all life. You formed every creature with purpose, and we ask that You would preserve these remaining ones according to Your perfect will. Give wisdom to those who steward Your creation, that they may act with godly care and discernment. Yet even as we pray for these animals, we surrender this request to You, knowing that Your plans are far greater than ours. May this situation remind us all of Your sovereignty and our dependence on You. Let it turn hearts toward You, the Author of life, that many may come to know Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. We ask this in His mighty name, trusting in Your goodness and mercy. Amen.**
We encourage you to continue seeking the Lord’s heart in all things, remembering that His ways are higher than ours. If this concern weighs heavily on you, we also pray that the Holy Spirit would grant you peace, knowing that He holds all things together (Colossians 1:17). Keep your eyes fixed on Christ, the One who redeems and restores all things in His perfect timing.
