Americans are reeling from the devastating impact of Helene and Milton.

There are many challenges in disaster recovery. If you have never experienced being in a natural disaster such as a hurricane, tornado, fire or flood, you may not have thought of the kinds of decisions and actions that go into relief efforts. Some are short term, but much of the recovery effort is a long-term project.

In an attempt to provide truth, prayer direction, and hope in this shared disaster, IFA is encouraging you to use our comments section to both ask for prayer if you or a loved one has been impacted, or to offer prayer, encouragement and hope to those who need it.

We will continue to offer updates from our relief partner, CityServe, who is currently on site in the southeast and positioned for efforts in Florida.

IFA hosted a 24 hour prayer vigil for Milton and the Lord answered our prayers! IFA’s Kris Kubal shared on Pray with America’s Leaders how God protected Florida from the worst of the storm. You watch this webcast below:

Here are some points of prayer over the situation:

  • Pray for the immediate needs of families to be met: rescue, medical attention, food, and water.
  • Pray for roads and bridges to be evaluated and repaired to bring more accessibility to areas hardest hit.
  • Pray for wise management and distribution of relief resources. It can be difficult to manage a wide supply chain of donations, maintain safe and organized storage, and then distribute items needed to the appropriate locations and families.
  • Pray for housing solutions for families who have been displaced.
  • Pray for the body of Christ to lead the way in offering help, prayer, support, and community.
  • Pray for the restoration of infrastructure, including electricity, gas delivery, road repair, and communications.
  • Pray about debris clean-up, which is a huge undertaking that requires many people and the right equipment to reach strategic locations.
  • Pray for families who are dealing with loss of life, loss of homes, and loss of jobs.
  • Pray that Americans would continue to actively help efforts, donate toward recovery, and pray for those in need.
  • Pray for those providing assistance: linemen, clean-up crews, aid workers, truck drivers, pilots, cooks, chainsaw teams, civil engineers, construction crews, warehouse workers, counselors, and general volunteers.
  • Pray for mayors, city workers, officials, firefighters, police, and the governors of affected states.
  • Pray for affected citizens to be able to vote in the elections in affected states and for safe and legitimate voting methods.
  • Pray for long-term projects to rebuild homes, towns, and businesses and revitalize communities.
  • Pray for the body of Christ to shine in the midst of darkness in our nation!

IFA hosted a 24 hour prayer vigil from 5 pm Tuesday, October 8 to 5 pm Wednesday, October 9. Thousands of intercessors joined the conference call prayer time to pray for Florida and the Helene recovery. It was a beautiful time of prayer and intercession.

Lord, we pray for all of those impacted by the Hurricanes. We pray that the churches and private sector organizations will not be stymied by FEMA, and that many lives will be saved. We pray that through this set back and, for many, tragedy, that it will “shake” people enough to accept You as their Savior when otherwise they would be secure in their own strength and selves. We pray that those in North Carolina and Florida will be able to cast their ballot, all the while keeping in mind the Harris Administration’s absence in their time of need much like they did concerning those of East Palestine, Ohio. Heavenly Father, we pray for your hand upon all of us in your nation that you brought about via Manifest Destiny and “paving” the road ahead of those settlers who chose to brave the wild frontier! We know it was your will to found America, and that there’s no reason to be ashamed of the CITIZENS of this country, and we know that usually it was the Federal Government that committed the bad, most notable atrocities and acts throughout our 250 year-old history. Please, be with us as a nation made up of vastly more great people than those who are vilely evil! In your name we pray, Amen!

Thank you and with much glorious praise to our Amazing God for shining his loving grace over Florida and his heavenly divine intervention in reducing Milton’s destruction and impact, therefore sparing Tampa from complete disaster. It was our heavenly father who changed Milton’s original path and also lessened the category of force. Only God has the power to do this feat!
Our constant comfort is in knowing God is ALWAYS in control, and only God, not man and certainly NOT Satan!
“I say: My purpose will stand, and I will do all that I please” (Isaiah 46:10). This is our powerful, purposeful God who is in control of everything. That should bring us great comfort and help to alleviate our fears.” https://www.gotquestions.org/God-is-in-control.html
Amen!

Praise God, for the Blessing of Recovery.

1 Samuel 30:18-20 King James Version (KJV)
And David recovered all that the Amalekites had carried away: and David rescued his two wives. And there was nothing lacking to them, neither small nor great, neither sons nor daughters, neither spoil, nor any thing that they had taken to them: David recovered all.

I know God will make a Way for all those affected by the Storms. He made a way for David and He will Make a Way for You! He is a Way Maker, (WAKER). He will awaken something Inside of You, that Says: I WLL RECOVER ALL in Jesus Name!, Amen Blessings and Favor to all! Amen!

I was thrilled to receive a text from IFA about the 24 hours of prayer as Milton approached us in Sarasota. What a comfort to know so many intercessors were lifting everyone in Milton’s path up to God. I joined in when I could, and was so blessed to be able to tell my family that you were praying! God has spared so many of us, and he is intervening to help our friends who have had losses. Watching Milton lose power as it approached us was so wonderful, seeing prayer answered in real time.. God is good!

Please give life, more abundant life, to the folks impacted by Helene & Milton.
Christian conservative policy implementation is what I want. For instance, rare, necessary, life sustaining abortion. Gov DeSantis has promoted a good plan.
Gov DeSantis appears to be managing recovery efforts very well.
My life was much better under Trump and the Republicans. Two trips down the shore happened every summer. In my car. I am thankful that FBC took a bus down this year.
I vote we give the Republicans another go.
Thanks for listening.
Jesus will always be on the throne.
His throne.
Keep looking up Florida folks.
Shalom, Chuck

Lord Jesus, I thank and praise that your Church is stepping into the gap, and making the effort to help the innocent victims of these disasters. I pray that there will be a dramatic change in the spiritual atmosphere in our country- one that will not just be until the crisis passes. We give You all the glory and honor due You. Please continue to bless those who have stepped out in faith to help these victims. May the victims be changed for the better, and, if they don’t know You already, that you would use this situation to draw them unto Your mercy and grace. Thank you, Jesus.

Thank you Lord for saving my elderly cousin from any damage and answering our prayer to surround her with your guardian angels through Milton’s ravaging winds.
A word of encouragement to those displaced as we were in Texas in 2016. Though it was a troublesome time, looking back God provided each step of the way back to wholeness. I still mourn the loss of our old house of 29 years because it’s where we raised our kids and grandkids but we are blessed with a safer home and new memories here. It’s hard to see it will ever be ok when you are displaced but God will restore. May all those displaced one day testify to God’s goodness as we have been able to do. Amen👆👆👆

My Lord and my God,

Please move on the hearts of Your people to go to the aid of those who have lost so much in these last 2 hurricanes. Many have lost homes, family members, utility outages and so much more. Many of the prayer groups are continuing to hold up in prayer all those who have lost so much, even lives. Please rebuke those in our government who are turning a deaf ear to the needs of so many citizens, while continuing to give millions or billions to wicked enemies. In Jesus’s Name, Amen!

Ps 46:1-2 gives peace & comfort better than my words:”God is our refuge and strength, an ever present help in trouble, though the earth gives way and the mountains fall into the heart of the sea”
I pray for complete provision of needs, although many, God knows what they are, and he is able to meet all in His abundance. Whatever we ask of Him, He is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine.

My home was flooded with over 3 feet of water. I have lived there for 37 years and never had an inch of water infiltrate before. I have been going from one place to another since September 28 trying to find an air conditioned space for my family and my 15 year old dog. Urgent prayers are needed for a solution to being displaced and a clear path forward, for my family and also for my neighbors.

Father, You have been with us here in Southeast Texas, as we have experienced several hurricanes beginning with Katrina, where thanking You our church had facilities to house over 100 evacuees. Then Hurricanes Rita, and Ike. We’ve had to evacuate and not being able to return to our home for over 3 weeks. Then Tropical Storm Harvey, flooded 3 counties, we were isolated water was to the roofs of homes or over. So many people came to help and rescue stranded people and pets. The people of our community came together to help anyone in need. Lord all of that was You bringing people together with one goal and that was to help each other. You dropped such a spirit of love here, it was overwhelming to witness. I said all this to say, You can and are probably already doing such wonders. Help them, Lord, wherever they need. I’m getting too wordy for this place. Thank You, Lord, for being with us in good times and bad times. You make everything good, Love You, Lord, in Your Son’s name amen.

Blessed be God!”
—-David, Psalm 68:35 NJKV, 979BC

🙏🏻Almighty God, Creator of the Universe (and storms that obey your authority), we praise You in love and obedience giving You the honor and glory that Your will be done within all of humanity. We ask in the name Jesus Christ for Your help in the southern United States, the Bible Belt. Please help Your children and all those You choose to help in Your discretion and those who serve You in Your name —Liberty University, Samaritan’s Purse, and Cajun Navy. We don’t know Your mysteries but we know to bend our knees in obedience and trust that Your Will be done. We love You Father.

October 11, 2024

This is a praise from a survivor of Hurricane Milton. It came through my area as a Category 2. I’m a person of strong faith and as a widow, for a few days before, I was speaking faith over fear to several other widows. My prayer to my Lord was please keep me from losing power. I live in a manufactured home community and the power in this community is always an issue.
During the worst of the storm I could feel the the wind shaking my home, so much so that my recliner on the other side of the house actually vibrated during the shaking. The worst of the storm started around 12:30am and continued until 5am when I went to bed. During this time, several times my lights would blink, yet I never lost power, thanks to the Lord answering my prayers. He also blessed the Widows I had shared faith over fear with, and they never lost their power either. I had one roof shingle come off my porch roof and one hibiscus bush split in two at the roots. Minor to say the least. The other Widows experienced little to no damage as well. God came through in an awesome way! Through this entire storm, I had such peace and could feel His presence through it all. I am not downplaying the devastation of this storm by any means and I am praying for all those who suffered loss in both Hurricanes Helene and Milton, rather I wanted to share how much the Lord blessed me in this difficult situation, and pray that it will encourage others who are praying for the victims of hurricane disasters. Blessings to all.

Good Lord, we know that you are in control and there is strong reason for the damaging storms that have occurred in Florida. My deceased wife’s parents (also deceased) lived for many years in Indian Rocks Beach so I know the area well after many visits with our five children. So my prayers go out strongly for the recovery and healing of those who have suffered so strongly from these disasters. May God quickly bring merciful healing and provision for needs to those affected. Also may God assist the churches in the area as they do their best to help so many suffering souls. And above all may our nation grow strong in knowing how to respond to such tragedy in a fair yet helpful manner. God has His reasons. May all learn what He intends to teach!
In Jesus precious name. Amen

Please continue to provide for the immediate and longer term needs of everyone affected by Hurricanes Helene and Milton in the USA . Please protect each one from any further harm or loss of life and/or property. Guide and direct first responders and everyone in charge of directing and managing relief and recovery efforts. I pray that order will be returned swiftly to infrastructures and utilities that were adversely affected. And, I ask that all affected citizens be given opportunities to cast their votes during this election season (early, by mail, or in person on Nov. 5th, etc.). I pray that any schemes being planned to prevent or to foil voting by these citizens be frustrated, confused, and destroyed.

For all the people who have been activated by the state government to assist and to be the hands and feet of Jesus to those survivors who are still struggling in various ways, whether it be linemen, National Guard members, law enforcement officials, first responders, clean up crews, engineers and ministry volunteers and everyone else who’s answering the call at this very urgent time, Jesus, bless them, protect them and bless the work of their hands and multiply the work that they do so that many lives will be impacted and much suffering will be alleviated. This we pray in Jesus’ name, amen.

    I agree, Lord. Some, if not many, may have had to place their own family’s loss and need aside while they attend to the needs of others. Please make provision for them, and give them peace in the midst of the chaos.

This is my first time to this site. My thought is that the LORD heard all the prayers across the body of Christ and calmed the storm so that it did not accomplish the worst destruction that had been forcasted. I am so thankful to Jesus that our corporate prayers offered in faith accomplished much good! Heaven will tell !!

The devastation from these back-to-back hurricanes is enormous. To all the people who have lost everything, the American Citizens are holding you close to heart, thoughts, and prayers. The government has been very slow to react. Citizens out there helping everywhere that they can. Thank God for the goodness in most people.

I am in awe this morning as Hurricane Milton was far less destructive than it was predicted that it would be! In the book of Mark chapter 4 Jesus said to the wind “pipe down” & it did. He said to the sea “quiet, settle down” & it did! So when we prayed yesterday: “Milton, be still” God’s hands went to work! The news said this morning: 1)Tampa dodged the major storm surges 2)The storm drifted 20 miles south. There was loss of life & 3 million people are without power this morning. “Mark 4:41 They were in absolute awe, staggered. Who is this, anyway? they asked. Wind and sea at His beck and call!”. A prayer: “Father, thank You for redirecting Hurricane Milton! There is power available when we pray in the name of Jesus. We give You glory, honor & praise today for never leaving us or forsaking us. That is who You are, a faithful Father! In Jesus precious name I pray this. Amen.”

    Yes! Hallelujah! Thank you, Patty, for this wonderful prayer of praise to our Father God! Wednesday night as I was praying at bedtime The Holy Spirit brought this same miracle by Jesus to my spirit and mind! So I prayed in a similar manner and began speaking to Milton—to be still! Peace-be still in the Name of Jesus!
    Yes! His word is sharper than a two edged sword!
    Thank You Lord for Your Word!
    In Jesus’ Name I pray! Amen!

We ask that You intervene in each and every life effected by these storms as they cry out to You. May many glory stories arise from the miraculous ways in which You act on their behalf. In the days to come, please work to make provision for our election, so that it will not be negatively impacted by these storms and their aftermath. Whatever happens, Lord, we acknowledge Your sovereign power and authority, and trust in Your goodness and mercy!

alsuch works of the enemy.
If may suggest a visual to enable to join together in faith and Christ’s,authority over the storm.
If you saw the movie Gladiator. you may remember the how Maximus lead fellow slaves to link.their shields together and in unity shouted out,”As One!”
So together they defeated and turned back a force that was about to destroy them.

If may suggest individually or corporately we link our Shields of Faith together and in unity cry aloud, “As one!”
Then we each with our Sword of the Spirit which is speaking and proclaiming the word of God aloud, intercede in “Appeal to Heaven” for divine intervention while exercising our authority in the Name of Jesus, and like Jesus spoke to the storm and commanded it, “Peace! Be still!” or however the Holy Spirit leads.

Heavenly Abba, I lift up my violin teacher, James Reid, his wife Martha and their dog Skylar who live in Sarasota where “Milton” is forecasted to land and for all of us in the path. We take authority to declare the very breath (Ruach) of God to change the trajectory and blow this storm out to sea. Let no agents of chaos and destruction draw near to their’s and all of our dwelling places. We pray they and ALL will exercise wisdom and evacuate if they haven’t already. I bind up all fear and anxiety, that your perfect peace will prevail as we put our unwavering faith in you. We know your eyes continually range to and fro throughout the earth to strengthen our hearts that are fully committed to you. Help us to shine your light as we share the eternal hope we have in you Jesus. Help us to provide shelter, food, clothing and love with providing needs for those you put on our path or in our hearts in the recovery from Helene and Milton. These storms are no surprise to you. Whether manipulated or natural you are in command of everything in this world for all is your creation. Let us remember that every day ordained for each of us has been written in YOUR Book before one of them came to be. Let us sing your praises in the face of all adversity for YOU alone O LORD are our strength and joy, our mighty fortress. YOU, O LORD, cause ALL things to work together for the good of those who love YOU and are called according to YOUR purposes. On YOU, Dear Jesus, the solid rock we stand.

Almighty God who sits high above the circle of the earth,
You who created all things are in control of all things. ALL THINGS. You turn the hearts of the kings like rivers of water. We ask that you also turn Milton away from it’s evil course of stealing, killing and destroying. Lord reveal your mighty right hand, because your arm is NOT shortened that it cannot save. We rebuke that Milton will make landfall. You stilled the waves and the winds from the boat so we are asking that you once more still the waves and the waters and cause a mighty and unforgettable awe to fall upon all who see and hear. Great is your name and great is your faithfulness!
We ask this in the only thing that we have that we can never lose, your own blood, the blood of Christ who has redeemed us from the curse of death. Thank you Lord that you hear our prayers.

Let’s pray the words of Psalm 124. If the Lord had not been on our side when people attacked us, then they would have swallowed us alive. The water would have engulfed us; the torrent would have swept over us; the raging water would have swept over us. Blessed be the Lord. Our help is in the name of the Lord, the maker of heaven and earth. Lord Jesus, make yourself known to the people in Israel, Gaza, Lebanon, North Carolina, and other areas ravaged by Helene, as well as in the path of Hurricane Milton. May a revival spread in all these places. We pray in Jesus’ name.

As Milton rages….

The Lord is your light and your salvation— whom should you fear? The Lord is the stronghold of your life— of whom should you be afraid? Though an army deploys against you, your heart is not afraid; though a war breaks out against you, still you are confident. Indeed, God is your salvation; you will trust Him and not be afraid, for Yah, the Lord, is your strength and your song. He has become your salvation. Do not fear, for He is with you; do not be afraid, for He is your God. He will strengthen you; He will help you; He will hold on to you with His righteous right hand. Don’t be afraid. Only believe.

I was disheartened byGov Ron DeSantis announcement that”.. you don’t have to get out and run away’.. and just stay home”.. that’s a paraphrase, but sounds to me like when thought Fauci was telling us.. “..if you’re sick go home first- until you turn blue, and then go to the hospital”… in 2020

Lord let people be encouraged to protect themselves and take whatever measures they need-,to be in a place that is safe and or protected.. so far we have seen that the damage is catastrophic and that many lives have been lost.. Lord please protect these people that are being told to not evacuate.. please expose any insanity and evil in government.
In Jesus name, Amen

    “Run from water; hide from wind.” This of course does not apply if you are in a mandatory evacuation zone. You need to leave obviously. As a new Floridian, I have found the governor’s slogan calming and instructive when I’m not in the path of the Hurricane but not sure what to do.

.. andLord, I declare that Rogue government agencies and the Demonic presence behind them like is behind FEMA that are blocking citizen-led Grassroots rescue groups will be thwarted-, and stand down and allow rescue efforts to proceed and not allow people to die unnecessarily.. also please protect and resuscitate the children calm their fears heal their minds hearts and souls Lord let them be comforted and brought under your wings.

    I opened my bible to Psalm 91 and inserted your name and included your family members. I read it slowly, out loud, and changed all of the pronouns as if I were writing it all in a letter for you to our Father. I love praying that way and feel that it is more powerful. If there is one thing we all need more right now it is the power of the Lord to bring peace and a redirect to that storm, in Jesus name.

    May the Lord bless you all and keep you under his wings.

Heavenly Father, thank You for Your love, mercy and grace. Thank You for our salvation through Jesus Christ our Lord. Father, I ask that You’ll forgive my sin. Forgive me of wasting precious time and taking for granted the comforts many are living without. I ask that You’ll continue to be with those who have lost love ones during Helene. Be with those who survived but have lost all their earthly possessions and are struggling daily. Thank you for all the volunteers who are giving of their time and resources to help those in need. Thank you for the agencies who have stepped up to provide supplies and care and help with cleanup. Bless them, Father, Strengthen the body and souls of those in the rescue and recovery mission. Tonight we turn our prayers toward Florida and all those living in the path of Milton. We ask that You speak to this storm and cause it to dissipate in the ocean if that be Your will. Be with Governor DeSantis and others as they make preparations for the destruction that could come, Be with my nephew , Kyle, with Natalie and her sister & family, and with all those sheltering in place. Father, keep them safe. Be with those who are alone and frightened, May they feel Your presence in a mighty way. We ask that you be with our government leaders, first responders, and volunteers who are working to be ready when needed. Thank You for Your promise to always be with us, holding our hand, and being our help in times of trouble. Let us put our trust in You. In the name of Your Son and my Savior, Jesus Christ. Amen

Hello Mabarley! I am so sorry to hear what happened to your marriage. That is not easy to navigate a betrayal, but of course you know that Jesus understands as He was also betrayed. May I suggest you ask God to help you find a church of believers to help you find friends? They will eventually become like family. Ask God for guidance. Meditate on Isaiah 41:10 and Philippians 4:4-13. I and many others worldwide have been praying for you but did not know your name. Now we do! I pray for a supernatural healing of your body and for God’s goodness, favor, love to overcome you. Giving financially is an issue of one’s heart. God will lead you in that area. God bless you and thank God now for your new friends, new church family and healing of your body. Psalm 91 protection during whatever weather pattern is trying to disrupt our lives. We have the victory!

    Dear Ma Barley,
    You are never alone when you know the love of Jesus. I agree that our world has changed but our Father in Heaven has not changed and we can all stand on His truth and love for He will deliver you from the snare of the fowler and from the deadly pestilence. His wings will provide refuge from the mightiest of storms. I know there are times when fear can creep in but when those times come for me, I take a breath and speak these few simple words……I trust you Lord. And I feel the peace of the Father. Even when you feel alone you can use those words and they will bring you comfort. If there are six of you together you all can pray that together. You will find that it helps.

    Trust in the Lord with all your heart. He will ride out the storm with you.

    May the Lord bless you all.

I am 67 single senior whose husband has left me for a younger woman with morels sailing experience on an our boat that was to be our ministry ship and retirement home😩😭. I only have Heathen that are interested in taking care of each other not Me Christian evangelist. I have no friends I have no family. I have my Jesus I love him and I know he loves me, but I have longed for so long for some Christian companionship and to know that at least one other human being on the planet cares.. I’ve written my name on my leg and my arm, and if something happens, at least he’ll know who I am. Thank you for the guide on what to pray for I will be doing that tonight. I wish I knew someone was praying for me yet. I wish I had someone to care in person.. there is power in prayer. There is power in the spoken word. There is great power and small little acts of kindness done with the right heart not just looking at someone like they’re your project.. I don’t know what’s gonna happen on the other side of this hurricane that I’m in the direct line for but if I get out I’m told I have to have this major surgery will take 3 to 6 months to recover and I don’t have anybody to help or to take care of me and I might just not have the surgery which will itself be the decision of the future . Thank you for your prayers. I wish there was a way for more practical applications of the spiritual truths that we profess and say we believe, but don’t act on..

Please don’t turn around and ask me for money. Because of what my husband has done, and whatever damage will be done after this hurricane, I’m potentially looking at being homeless. If Church would be less concerned about the money, they put into their driveways and invest in the lives of the believers they take money from. I think God would be more pleased.

    Dearest Sister, Ma Barley. You are never alone if you know the LORD Jesus. He is your constant companion and your friend. He will never leave you or forsake you. These are just words of encouragement, they are words of truth. We are all praying for your safety and the many other people who find themselves in the eye of this hurricane. “LORD Jesus, hear our prayer for Ma Barley. Protect her this night and throughout the storm. I pray Psalm 91 over my sister this night: ‘She who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will abide in the shadow of the Almighty…He will cover you with His pinions and under His wings you may seek refuge. His faithfulness is a shield and a bulwark. You will NOT be afraid of the terror by night or of the arrows that flies by day…A thousand [trees] may fall at your side and ten thousand [trees] at your right hand but it shall not approach you.””
    Amen and so be it!

    Your situation has touched my heart. I am rather far from Florida to help you myself. I am no interested in your money. I am fine financially. I don’t know where you live. I assume that it is in Florida. There is a program in the affected counties in Florida. You can get a free Uber ride to a shelter if your house is not safe to ride out the storm. Use the code MILTONRELIEF(I think). You might meet someone there. At least you won’t be alone. You might get help from Samaritan’s Purse.

Mighty warriors,
Please Pray with me in commanding “Milton” to dissipate.

In John 14, Jesus stated we, who believe, will do greater works then He did during His time on earth.

It is time we, step into that authority and begin having a supernatural effect in this Kingdom war!

Satan is NOT lord over the wind! And despite what man may think GOD controls ALL things! He has not changed, His Power has not weakened, and His authority will never be overruled!

May we serve Him as His faithful, POWEFUL army; against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms! (Eph. 6:12)

“Then Jesus got up and rebuked the wind and the sea. “Silence!” He commanded. “Be still!” And the wind died down, and it was perfectly calm.”Mark 4:39

In the following verse, Jesus addresses the men in the boat, “Why are you so afraid? Do you still have no faith?” Mark 4:40 BSB

Father, grant us greater FAITH, that we may serve you this day, WITH EXCELLENCE!

“Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do he will do also; and greater works than these he will do, because I go to My Father” John 14:12

Ask the Lord to cause your voice to supernaturally echo thru the Miltons eye. Blow your shofar, and WAR in the Supernatural! command Milton “Be Still”!

Such beautiful land, beautiful ocean, but a nightmare for those who are living in the aftermath of the hurricane helene,. We pray and ask for your mercy with this newest storm hurricane Milton. I pray that it will break up and lose strength before hitting land. We remember in job that you alone make the borders between Land and Sea you have walked on the sea you have calmed the sea you have split Waters into for people to flee, nothing is impossible for you and we are asking for you to hear our prayers and have mercy on the people and property and animals in these areas. We also know that you have given us gifts as Christians to share our time talents or Treasures with others as well as our comfort. Please press upon the hearts of those who are able to give creatively. We know that no storm in life is without a purpose you will bring good fruit even from what appears ruined. Thank you Jesus for all the Miracles, thank you for miracles that we don’t even know about that happened last week. I know people will be testifying about your goodness and coming to know you through this time in Jesus name amen

Thank You for Your love, mercy and grace. Thank You for the protection across the country, and be with those victims, the families, pets, property, livelihoods.

May this be a turning point for those needing to be closer to You,
May this be a a wake up call for the lost and cold toward You.
May difficult times be a motivation for all of us to get our lives straight.

Show us where we are not aligned with Your will
and help us get under Your plan for us, Your protection for us, Your direction for us … within Your perfect will for us.
Amen

I pray that they feel the love of other Americans but most of all I pray that they feel God’s arms wrapped around them in love.

Many of us have the faith to believe this is possible! some of us are so weary with all the bad news of our nation and we confess that we are fearful. Some of us are also sorrowfully repentant for being too lazy for too long. I know I am. Thank you for waking us up.
    I ask for a Great and mighty deliverance from this horrible storm in the name of Jesus. I ask it as a sign that you do still love us and that we are forgiven, but please change us and change our hearts in Jesus name we ask , Amen .

FACT: Father, the state of Florida has declared and taken upon them as a STATE MOTTO: “In God We Trust”! It was adopted by the Florida legislature as part of the state seal in 1868. This is also the motto of the United States and is a slight variation on Florida’s first state motto, “In God is our Trust.” In 2006, “In God We Trust” was officially designated in state statute as Florida’s motto. SO GOD, WE DECREE and DECLARE that the STATE of FLORIDA TRUSTS IN YOU for EVERYTHING that they have need of! ABBA, THEY NEED YOU NOW!!! We ask for You to release EMERGENCY ANGELS to help those in need and stand as a wall of protection against the tempest of fear, destruction and annihilation, in the name of Jesus! WE SPEAK LIFE over FLORIDA! LIFE!!! LIFE!!! LIFE!!! We, as Intercessors, perform a prophetic act and B-L-O-W this hurricane from the northeast in the gulf, to the southwest, in Jesus’ name! That it will go AROUND the Florida peninsula and AWAY from the state, MIRACULOUSLY, in the NAME of JESUS! Father, protect all people, animals, homes, boats/ships, emergency responders and support, and plant life that is close, and WRAP YOUR ARMS OF LOVE around the STATE OF FLORIDA, in Jesus’ Name we ask in FAITH BELIEVING that WITH YOU, GOD, ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE! YOU are the GOD of MIRACLES! DO IT AGAIN, ABBA! YOU are the GOD of MERCY! HAVE MERCY on FLORIDA, ABBA! YOU are the GOD OF LOVE! WE LOVE YOU, LORD! LET LOVE, LOVE, EXTRAVAGANT LOVE B–L–O–W THIS hurricane AWAY FROM THE LANDFORMS, in Jesus’ Holy and MIGHTY NAME! We thank you Father, for hearing our Prayers! Your word says where two or more are gathered in Your name, YOU are in the midst of it all! WE ARE CRYING OUT as INTERCESSORS for THE STATE OF FLORIDA! COME, LORD, JESUS, COME! BE GLORIFIED GOD! GLORIFY YOUR BEAUTIFUL SON, JESUS CHRIST! WE LIFT YOUR NAME HIGH-HIGH-HIGH!!!!!!! Thank you Lord! Thank you for Your tender loving MERCY over Florida! In Jesus Holy Name, we pray!

    As I read your prayer request Milena, My Tribute by Andre Crouch ran through my head…….

    How can I say thanks
    For the things You have done for me?
    Things so undeserved
    Yet You gave to prove Your love for me;
    The voices of a million angels
    Could not express my gratitude
    All that I am and ever hope to be
    I owe it all to Thee

    I pray when this is all over, both you and your husband sing this over all the mercy God granted you throughout Milton. May Milton be diminished but you both fearless. May Milton be diminished but you and your husband empowered. May Milton be diminished and all God’s people sing in praise. I am praying for you.

I am very hesitant to write this and it might be seen as foolish or superstitious. However, Governor DeSantis put a note at the Western Wall in 2019 for no hurricanes that year and I saw what happened to Hurricane Dorian. It was a strong category 5 hurricane and projected to hit Florida. It slowed to a crawl and never made landfall in Florida. Is there anyone in Jerusalem, Israel that could put a note in the Western Wall asking for mercy and no landfall?

    Dear Susan,
    This wall is YOUR Western Wall and God knows your heart. He hears every prayer being written and spoken here.

    I pray that God shows you His answer in the same way He answers those standing at the Western Wall in Jerusalem. I encourage you to step out in faith just as if you were right there.

    May you find the perfect peace you seek as the storm responds in kind.

    God bless you Sister.
