Lord, today we pray for Kenya, where the people have
experienced the double-edged sword of drought paired with flash flooding. What
an ironic trial, Lord, to need rain so desperately, but then to receive it too
quickly for the land to absorb it! Please lift Kenyans’ spirits, Lord, as they
face this irony. Help them focus on the positive in the midst of the
challenges. On a very practical level, Lord, we are asking for Kenyans’ safety
and provision. Please guide people in making wise choices as they face the
flash floods. May they not risk their well-being for possessions or take
unnecessary risks. We pray for those whose homes have been lost or damaged,
that you would provide safe shelter and the means to find a new home when the time
is right. We ask blessing for those who are hosting the displaced. Give them
your peace, and may everyone get along in close quarters under sometimes intense
emotions. And, Lord, may Kenyans rebuild and return to regular life quickly and
effectively. Above all, of course, glorify yourself in the midst of this
situation. May your children be among the very best in reaching out to those in
need. In Jesus’ name we pray, amen.
