Prayer for those who feel isolated due to COVID-19

 

The present fallout of COVID-19 is absolutely huge! I may be stating the obvious. If we stop to consider what enforced isolation really means, we realize the enormous present suffering that people have to endure due to this sinister and devastating disease that presently has gripped most of humanity! Psalm 91 talks about “the pestilence that stalks in the darkness, … the plague that destroys at midday” (v. 6) and this is exactly what we are dealing with, 3000 years from when it was first written!

May I, therefore, ask the readers and visitors to this website to join me in praying, as often as possible, for the following:

“Merciful God and Father, we ask on behalf of all those who, due to having become infected by COVID-19, are finding themselves in isolation, away from the physical presence of supportive loved ones, just like lepers in days of old. We lift them up in their physical and psychological suffering, experiencing abandonment, no matter how justifiable. We cry out on their behalf, that some of them would put aside their past pride and determined independence from you, God, and become like children once again, just like Jesus told us to be towards God, and cry out to you, Abba Father, for comfort, for strength, for healing, for forgiveness, for salvation through Jesus Christ, the only Lord and Saviour appointed for mankind by God the Father(Acts14:12):

“Salvation exists in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to men by which we must be saved.”

We ask this in the precious name of our Lord Jesus Christ. Amen.”

Thank you for your prayers, on behalf of others! May God make his face to shine upon you and give you peace (Numbers 6:24-26).
