Hurricane Helene is battering the southeastern United States. At times like these, it is important that we pray and intercede for those affected by the storm.
Post a prayer for your state!
The storm landed in Florida on Thursday night as a category 4 hurricane. It is the strongest hurricane to ever hit Florida’s Big Bend region, and the third hurricane to do so in under 13 months. Florida Governor Ron DeSantis confirmed that at least 2 people have died in the state. Over 1 million Floridians were without power on Friday morning, and many in the northern part of the state reported flooding.

As the storm moved on from Florida, it began to severely batter Georgia. The Peach State also saw several cases of flooding, as well as at least 7 deaths. As of Friday morning, over 1 million Georgians were without power as a result of Helene, which has now been downgraded to a tropical storm.
As Helene continues moving north, several states are being affected. Florida, Georgia, South Carolina, and North Carolina seem to have suffered the most, but states as far east as Mississippi and as far north as Ohio could still see at least local flash flooding. Rain and high winds are impacting much of the eastern United States, and some communities along the southeast coast are at risk of tornados.
As buildings are torn apart, streets are flooded, and millions are left without power, let’s pray. Pray that God would protect people from the storm, that He would comfort the families of those who were injured or killed, and that He would empower the affected states as they rebuild and repair.

Lord Jesus, I pray that you will use this disaster as a means to display your glory. I pray for all of the people affected by this storm. I especially pray for all of the people who do not know you as Lord and Savior. Please give them the incentive to come to You to be their Provider. Thank you Jesus.
Father, in the mighty, majestic name of Jesus, I lift up every individual affected by this horrendous storm. Bring peace and comfort their hearts Lord. Even though there were devastated damages, I know that you Father can bring quick restoration and comfort to those who lost loved ones and property loses. I pray that those who don’t know you Jesus as Lord will cry out to you and invite you into their hearts as Lord and Savior. In Jesus name, Amen.
Praying for families especially affected by this hurricane, Abba Father
If the Lord has power to protect all those Helene victims then why didn’t he? Please don’t say that God works in mysterious ways. That’s a non-answer.
Father, in your mercy I pray you would protect those who are in danger from the hurricane. May they see your hand of protection and provision and for those who know you, may they be a light for others to see you. And for those who do not know you, may they be found by you.
Thank you Lord that you provide where needs are Lord like only you can do. And through all the suffering may your name be magnified… in Jesus Name.
East TN has been severely affected/hit with very bad flooding, homes destroyed, bridges and roads washed out and widespread power outages.
TN is also included in our prayers – as is every state effected!
LORD, we pray for East TN and ask you to touch this area with YOUR GRACE and MERCY, and divine help. In JESUS’ NAME.
We thank you, Father that you are in the midst of that storm and will provide for those who suffer devastation and loss along with those who are hindered in some way due to age or physical limitations. May the people pray fervently for your grace through it all. May we who are not affected by the Hurricane prevail in Prayer for them.
Virginia was affected too by Helene. Our daughter and family lives near Waynesboro, just west of Afton Mountain. Parts of Waynesboro was flooded due to the storm within the last 24 hours.
Lord Jesus, we pray for mercy and protection over all people affected who live in all of the southeastern states on up northward and as far west as Indianapolis where flooding occurred as well.
We also pray that you will move on the hearts of our our nation’s leaders to repent for siding with the enemies of Israel and to stand completely with her because of what Your word promises in Genesis 12:3: “I will bless those who bless you, And I will curse him who curses you; . . .” May America wake up and see the connection between what is happening here now with what we have done in recent days to Israel since Oct.7th and to once again stand whole heartedly with the nation of Israel and Your chosen people.
I live in Savannah, Georgia. We were without power for 36 hours.But praise God we live directly behind a Publix grocery store that has a generator that was opened!
As Your people go into these areas to help, may the love and compassion shown result in many coming to faith in Yeshua. In whatever way You call us to help, may we obey quickly and joyfully, Lord. Protect and make provision for those who are the boots on the ground, Your hands and feet, Your answers to prayer.
LORD GOD
PLEASE HELPTHE PEOPLE IMPACTED BY HURRICAN HELENE. KEEP THEM SAFE. PROVIDE FOR THEIR NEEDS AND BRING AND AWAKENING TO YOUR PRESCENCE AND WILL FOR ALL PEOPLE.
I ASK IN JESUS’ NAME
AMEN
Lord Jesus, we read and know that you calm the storms. It is the same power and authority that we have. Remind us all through your Holy Spirit to preemptively pray, when storms are approaching, that we might utilize the God-given authority and power you gave us through the unthinkable price you paid on the cross. For those who have been affected by the storm, we lift each and every family up to you that has lost a loved one, that you would meet their needs that you would comfort them, that they would know you are with them , in this, their hour sorrow. We weep with those who weep Lord. Make a way in their lives where destruction has left a path that would say there is no way. Thank you Lord for your love for all of us and for who you are in our times of need. Help us not to take what you did on the cross for us for granted. THANK YOU LORD, FOR THE CROSS!
I live in North Carolina. I was at my son’s house during the storm. God kept us safe, a huge tree in my son’s yard was uprooted but fell toward the forest away from the house. I could not help but think of how “the mighty oak” that was uprooted is being upheld by a lot of smaller trees. This serves as reminder that we “the smaller trees” need to up hold our Christian leaders who are battling for us on the front lines. Those in the senate, congress, churches, etc. who are standing up daily to protect our freedom.
That is a wonderful comparison and definitely a good report.. what a great word picture. Thank you for your observation, and for paying attention as the Lord leads you every day
Amen – and most of all, may people affected turn to the ultimate one who calms the storm of anxiety in our hearts. May the Holy Spirit be their Wonderful Counselor and Comforter as human instruments become Jesus’ hands and feet to tangibly show His Love!
Lord, we pray that the needs of all who are suffering because of this huge blow will be met and that those who know you will will overcome in the power of Your Spirit. We also pray that that unscrupulous politicians will not use this most difficult situation to their own political benefit at this time.
Yes I agree and especially declare right now that as the leftists have declared from their utilization of Karl Marx Playbook on Marxism-, where it is stated-..” never let a tragedy go to waste”,.. that you would eradicate that thought from the minds of those evil persons who think that way-, and that men and women would be overpowered by your Holy Spirit turning from Evil, in repentance and overwhelmed with the spirit of needing and wanting to help those who are devastated.. not only by the storm, however also by the all the tragedies that are happening today.
In Jesus mighty name, amen
LORD, may the grace and comfort of the Holy Spirit rise up strong 💪 in them all, and much help and finances come in for a quick recovery and restoration come to them financially, physically, and spiritually, in Jesus Name, Amen.”
Dear Heavenly Father,
Thank You that we can come to You for all that we need- especially during times of overwhelming fear and sadness. You are the God Who Sees Us! Father, I lift up these families to You right now in Jesus’ Mighty Name. Please comfort them, fill their minds with minds with wisdom and clarity as they make decisions- in the moment. I pray for Your Peace to come over them- the “peace that transcends all understanding”. LORD GOD, guide us who are not in the midst of this trial to help in whatever way is needed and that You ask of us.
In the Power and Might of Christ Jesus I approach Your Holy Throne with these prayers.
Holy Spirit, it is at times like this that I do not know who to pray, Romans 8:26 tells us we need not worry, for it is at these times that Holy Spirt makes “intercessions for us with groanings that cannot be uttered” and ” he makes intercessions for the saints according to the will of God”. Hallelujah!!! Only God.
Amen. I come in agreement with you. Thank you for your beautiful prayer.
Heavenly Father, hallowed be Your name God. We lift up all those who have been affected by this hurricane. We ask for Your hand to calm the storm and to administer peace and comfort to those who have lost loved ones or their homes. I speak wholeness over this region. I pray that all will be rebuilt quickly and those who have lost their homes, You would supply for their needs and comfort their hearts. I want to speak Psalm 91 over everyone dealing with this storm today. May God’s peace, presence and comforting hand, sustain You through the days ahead. Let His Joy be Your strength to guide You through. In Jesus name amen
Psalm 91
“He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High Shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the Lord, “He is my refuge and my fortress; My God, in Him I will trust.” Surely He shall deliver you from the snare of the fowler And from the perilous pestilence. He shall cover you with His feathers, And under His wings you shall take refuge; His truth shall be your shield and buckler. You shall not be afraid of the terror by night, Nor of the arrow that flies by day, Nor of the pestilence that walks in darkness, Nor of the destruction that lays waste at noonday. A thousand may fall at your side, And ten thousand at your right hand; But it shall not come near you. Only with your eyes shall you look, And see the reward of the wicked. Because you have made the Lord, who is my refuge, Even the Most High, your dwelling place, No evil shall befall you, Nor shall any plague come near your dwelling; For He shall give His angels charge over you, To keep you in all your ways. In their hands they shall bear you up, Lest you dash your foot against a stone. You shall tread upon the lion and the cobra, The young lion and the serpent you shall trample underfoot. “Because he has set his love upon Me, therefore I will deliver him; I will set him on high, because he has known My name. He shall call upon Me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him and honor him. With long life I will satisfy him, And show him My salvation.””Psalms 91:1-16 NKJV

Father, We call upon You to quiet this storm comfort the families who have lost loved ones. May your love be shown through the people and the acts of love and kindness. Be Glorified through the love shown to the people.
Father God, I just pray for Holy Spirit infused comfort to all those who are being affected by this terrible tragedy. They need immediate help with boots on ground and wisdom and your guidance for all the red tape with FEMA and insurance companies. Oh lord God shower them with folks who will bring them with your Agape love in Jesus name.
Father we praise Your GreatName, we pray for those who have been devastated by this storm that You comfort them and give them Your perfect peace may more hearts turn to You Jesus the Son of God. We pray for our leaders give them wisdom and with the first responders in Jesus Name.
Having read the book “As America has done to Israel by John P. McTernan” and the Bible, whenever I hear about these never before type storms, massive earthquakes, and other calamities America faces I know that is because we (Our government) is cursing Israel instead of standing with them. Every time we hold up support (weapons artillery) or coerce them into doing things that are against God (give up land, not fight back, etc.) we suffer these type of things. I pray that our Government (cackles and goofy) come to their senses and stop cursing Israel and bringing these curses upon the American people.
Dearest Heavenly Father: We pray your mercy and protection upon those in the path of this violent storm. We pray for the ones who have succumbed, and hope they knew and followed you and are now safe in your arms. We pray that our government would pick up the BIBLE and this book and start listening and following your word and ways so we will not be consumed because of their stupidity and lack of acknowledgement of you as our Creator, Lord and Savior. We pray YOUR WILL be done on earth as it is in Heaven. To you be all Glory, Honor, Power and Praise for you alone are Worthy to be Praised.
Amen!!! I agree 100% about the so called leadership in our country. God will not be mocked!
