Prayer Guide: A Call to Prayer for Texas  

The Governor of Texas and the President of the United States have asked the nation to pray for Texas on Sunday, September 3, 2017.  Let us respond wholeheartedly and join in prayer for those in need in the aftermath of this terrible storm.


God is our refuge and strength,
A very present help in trouble.
Therefore we will not fear,
Even though the earth be removed,
And though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea;
Though its waters roar and be troubled,
Though the mountains shake with its swelling. 

There is a river whose streams shall make glad the city of God,
The holy place of the tabernacle of the Most High.
God is in the midst of her, she shall not be moved;
God shall help her, just at the break of dawn.

Heavenly Father, our refuge and strength, and our very present help in trouble, we lift to You those who have lost loved ones and ask that You be with them in their time of grief.  

For those who are sick and injured, we pray that You bring them healing and care. 

For those who have lost everything, their homes, their possessions, the things that remind us of our families and our lives, we ask that You would be the God of all comfort to them. 

For those without water, without food, and without shelter, send aid quickly and enable us to be Your hands extended to them in their time of need.  

For the rescue workers, for the first responders, and for everyone providing aid, strengthen and encourage them and protect them from all harm. May they find joy in their work and rest at the end of the day. 

And now we pray for America. May we love one another just as You have loved us. May we unite together to help our brothers and sisters in their time of need so that we can truly be one nation, under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. 

Amen.
