Hurricane Prayers

(Originally published by Nattie on August 31, 2004)

My friend, Dana, needs some hurricane sized prayers. Hurricane Francis is heading right towards them and she has just recovered from Hurricane Charley.

Update 6pm:
The verses I am praying for Dana and Jamie and any one else in the storm's path...

  • The disciples went and woke him saying, "Master, Master, we're going to drown!" He got up and rebuked the wind and the raging waters; the storm subsided, and all was calm. "Where is your faith?" he asked his disciples. In fear and amazement they asked one another, "Who is this? He commands even the winds and the water, and they obey him."—Luke 8:24-25
  • He stilled the storms to a whisper; the waves of the sea were hushed.—Psalm 107:29
  • So we say with confidence, The Lord is my helper; I will not be afraid. What can man do to me? ...Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.
    Hebrews 13:6 and 8
  • The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not be in want.
    He makes me lie down in green pastures,
    He leads me beside quiet waters,
    He restores my soul.
    He guides me in paths of righteousness for His name's sake.
    Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
    I will fear no evil,
    for You are with me;
    Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.
    You prepare a table before me
    in the presence of mine enemies.
    You anoint my head with oil;
    my cup overflows.
    Surely goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life,
    and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.
    —Psalm 23
  • When you pass through the waters,
    I will be with you;
    and when you pass through the rivers,
    they will not sweep over you.
    When you walk through the fire,
    you will not be burned;
    the flames will not set you ablaze.
    For I am the Lord, your God,
    the Holy One of Israel, your Savior.
    —Isaiah 43:2-3a
