Prayer for Safety

God is our king. God runs this place and he’ll keep us safe. Isaiah 33:20 MSG

With a God like this loving you, you can pray very simply. Like this: Our Father in heaven, Reveal who you are. Set the world right; Do what’s best— as above, so below. Keep us alive with three square meals. Keep us forgiven with you and forgiving others. Keep us safe from ourselves and the Devil. You’re in charge! You can do anything you want! You’re ablaze in beauty! Yes. Yes. Yes. Matthew 6:7 MSG

Dear Heavenly Father, thank you for being the God who runs this place. I pray that you watch over us, our families, and our children. Lord, as the world seems to spin out of control we realize daily we are not in control – You are.

Lord, keep us safe from ourselves and protect us from the chaos that is unfolding. You are in charge and can do anything you want. Lord, we lift up to you at this moment those we love and ask you to keep them safe in their jobs, schools, and environments.

You know our every need Lord and we thank you for that. We thank you for being there so we can run to You for safety, refuge and shelter. Hear our prayers, Lord. Keep our hearts tuned in to You as we dwell in the shelter of Your tabernacle. Amen.

For in the day of trouble he will keep me safe in his dwelling; he will hide me in the shelter of his tabernacle and set me high upon a rock. Psalm 27:5 NIV

  1. What a lovely prayer Alene.

  2. Hey Alene! It’s been a while since I’ve been over here. Well, it feels that way. What a prayer warrior you are. I hope all is well. Blessings to you!!

  3. I stand in agreement with you.

    Nothing surprises our God. He isn’t running around in disbelief wondering “Now,what do I do?”

    You are so right…God’s in control!

A Prayer for Safety

Hubby got called in to fly late Saturday evening. The mission – to fly to the Texas Louisiana border and begin evacuating critically ill patients from hospitals and taking them to other hospitals inland.

The crew loaded up. Just before take-off Hubs thought he heard something over the intercom.

“What?” he responds.

A small voice says, “Will you say a prayer for our safety?”

Hubs prays for the crew and their safety. They take off to go do what they do best.

Hours later, being just minutes from landing at the helo-port at the hospital, Hubs hears a loud sound coming from the helicopter. Upon landing they find red oil splashed all over the outside of the aircraft.

An oil line had been severed. The helicopter only had minutes left.

Needless to say, the mission was aborted. The night was spent repairing the helo for the flight home.

But praise God that one of the crew members felt the need to pray and they responded. Hallelujah for God’s provision and protection.

Prayer warriors, please pray for the Gulf Coast cities and their residents. Pray for all EMS, rescue teams, police and volunteers who will come to help in this time of need.

God you amaze me daily!

  1. When you’re not on the front lines of something like this (and I was during Hurricane Floyd in ’99) it’s easy to forget those of you who are.

    So much chaos all around…thank God for his peace in the midst.

  2. I’m so glad no one was hurt. God is SO AMAZING! He is always so faithful and always goes ahead of us. Soli Deo Gloria!

    Lifting up the helpers. Thanks for sharing this. It was providencial.

  3. Praise the Lord, Alene for their safety. Thanks for sharing this miracle of how powerful prayer is and why we should pray when we feel that prompting.

  4. Hallelujah indeed!!! I’m so thankful he….and all the helo crew….is safe and sound!
