I don’t believe that I have ever asked for people to join me in prayer for such a need. I believe we failed three years ago. We failed to pray as the storm was approaching, and failed to pray as needs were or were not seen and established.
We must pray for our Lord and God to either change the path of the storm into a less populated area, and where there will be less property damage, or for Him to cause the storm to dissapate. I know many of the people are leaving as the fear of the past seems to be coming back at them.
Let’s pray for God’s will for the city of New Orleans, and other coastal towns and cities, and the people who are in the path of Gustave. Our God is a good, gracious, and loving God. Let’s pray, and may the path of our prayers into the throne room of God cause the storm of fear to cease first of all, then the winds, rains, and damages of the storm Gustave be limited by God’s own hand.
Father be glorified in the storm and the storms that will come. Glorify Your Son Jesus through the prayers of Your people. Amen.

The Fire and Hammer 
I will continue to pray for all of the cities that are in the path of this hurricane. You are right though, people are leaving in their cars, planes, buses, and etc…but how many of us are actually on our knees praying? Everyone who is inland enough and is safe and secure should be on our hands and knees!! Those who are traveling to get out should be praying. Only God can handle a situation like this!
Father,
I just come to you tonight in prayer and ask that in Your Son Jesus’ name that you will protect each of those traveling due to this hurricane. God, I ask that you lay Your hand on each person that has been affected by this and that if it be in Your Will that this storm be stopped so that our country suffers no more destruction. Lord, be with the leaders of our country that they can make right decisions. Lord, forgive us when we fail you.
In Christ Name,
Amen
