A Prayer for the Bereaved...

We can all agree that death is rampant as we speak. Celebrities and other noted figures are slipping out and its becoming all to common.
I've noticed on the board that many people are losing their loved ones unexpectedly. Last week I found out a classmate committed suicide. Last night, another overdosed and 2 am yesterday morning one was in a fatal car accident. These are 3 classmates in the matter of weeks and 2 in one day.
As the people of God, we must stand in the gap and pray for those who lose their loved ones. So much is going on and prayer is the only thing that will change things!

Father God in the Precious Name of Jesus,
You are Almighty and reign supreme in the universe. There is no God like our God. You hold this world in the palm of your hands. You know our end from our beginning. You know our rising and our lying down. You are our Creator and Maker, the Giver of Life and the One who can draw our very breath from these mortal bodies.
We come to you asking for the strength, comfort, and peace of those who have lost loved ones. We realize that death is not the end but the beginning of a new life in you. We pray that their souls have found rest in your kingdom. We ask that you would allow your will to manifest concerning the departure of these loved ones if it be thou will to make it known. We also ask that others would draw closer to you as a result of these deaths.
Thank You that you will place no more on us than we can bear. Thank you that as we walk through the valley of the shadow of death, we will fear no evil. Thou art with us, Thy rod and staff shall comfort us. We thank you God for the lives that these individuals have lived. We pray that we will not take our own lives or the lives of others for granted and that we would live each day unto you-
In Jesus' Name
AMEN
 
There are several people that are not yet over the loss of loved ones, miscarriages, etc. that happened years ago. After things happen and all the people are gone, the phone calls and cards cease, I believe that people still need comfort. That's when its needed most.

Please pray for my family. My aunt died yesterday after a 4 year battle with cancer. She was the oldest of my dad's nine siblings.

This is a beautiful thread. You and Nice and Wavy have given a beautiful and loving expression of what love is among 'sisters' in the Lord. :Rose:
 
Wonderful thread!

1 Thess 5:11
Wherefore comfort yourselves together, and edify one another, even as also ye do.
 
Hi Ladies,
Let us continue to remember these dear families in prayer. This thread was started Wednesday and I have been given names to add daily. People are leaving here so suddenly and I just encourage everyone to cherish those that yet remain. God Bless-
 
Father God, I lift of the family of xcuzememiss, Darian Delk and his friend Vance Rocke. I pray that you would comfort the hearts of the families and that justice will be served accoroding to your perfect will and way. You know all things and I pray that your will be done in this situation. I pray peace and strength for all of those who knew these young men. I pray that their lives will not be lost in vain but that something positive will be gained from this situation. In Jesus' Name- Amen.
