Lord God, we hear you. We recognize that we are utterly
helpless before you. A virus transmitted from your creatures in one small
corner of this wide world has brought that same world to its knees. We need
your divine intervention. Lord, we pray for the researchers around the world
who are exploring solutions to this problem. Bless and protect them. Direct
them to answers. We pray for our leaders. Keep them humble, focused and wise.
May they lead us in the directions you would have us go. We pray for our
healthcare workers, that you would grant them strength, clarity and fortification.
We pray for those living in fear, that you would bring hope and peace. And,
Lord, we pray for the sick. We desire healing for more of them, and the chance
to say good-bye for those who do pass from this earth. On this day, Lord, we
also repent. We repent of putting earthly things before you and of not living
for you. We repent on behalf of ourselves, our families, our churches and our
lands. We declare a desire to learn all that you have for us amid this global
trial. And we worship you. Amen.
