Help us pray for…

Prayer Request - October 11, 2026


Lord, thank you for all the wonderful blessings You give to us each and every day. Thank you most of all for the generous grace and love You pour out on us, even though we do not deserve it and often do not appreciate it. Help us to understand that we can do nothing to earn our salvation. We must accept it as a gift, and then continue to trust in You, the giver.

       Lord, help us remember to set aside time each day to talk with You, to listen to You, and to learn more about You through the scriptures and in prayer. Let us not neglect time with You or substitute something else for it.  Help us imitate You more closely and model You to those around us, so they too will want to be Your disciple.

       Thank you, Lord, for answering each and every prayer. Help us (adults) to understand and remember, You are our Father. As a parent, You must sometimes give the answer of a resounding “No” to our requests. Sometimes You give the answer as, “Wait and see” (with the “wait” part emphasized!) Sometimes, Your answer is “yes”, although it may come with a caveat that You have a better way than what we can think of! All parents have given those answers to their children at some point. Help us to remember You also give those answers to us as our Father.

       Thank You for being with us and in us constantly and consistently. We are never alone, nor do we ever face anything (trial, adversity, or joy) alone. Help us be bold enough to voice this to others and model it.

       Lord, as we celebrate this country's 250th anniversary this year, we pray for our country, especially for its leaders. We pray people will again recognize God’s hand throughout our history and acknowledge that without His guidance and presence, society spirals downward quickly. We pray our leaders will heed God's guidance and return to be servants of God and servants of the people as the founding fathers decreed. We pray that the rhetoric spoken so glibly, that is divisive and pro-violence, will start focusing on the real needs of people and practicality, and not just be spoken to be divisive and derogatory.

Lord, we continue to pray for our military men and women, past and present, who have paid a high price to keep this country free for us to enjoy. We also pray for all the first responders, especially our law enforcement officers, who have been demonized and targeted for death by the reckless rhetoric. We pray, Lord God, that You will be with each of them, that You will protect them and provide for them, and that You will give each Your peace and comfort. We also pray for their families and loved ones as they endure the uncertainty of their world and cope with the special challenges they face each day.
