Everyone has experienced storms in their lives at one time or another, and each person can have a different perspective of the same storm. Just knowing that a storm is coming can provoke an array of emotions, fear usually being the most prevalent. Fear cancels our faith. It leads to bad reports as we saw this past week, with the 10 spies who gave a bad report about the land to Moses.
Here are some thoughts we can meditate on and pray about this week:
- There is no denying that storms happen in our lives. How we view them, in other words our perspective, will determine our future.
- Our perspective must be built on God’s word and His promises for our lives.
- Even in the storm, His goodness and mercy will follow me all the days of my life!
MONDAY
Personal
Take time to pray and meditate on how you perceive storms. What is your perspective and does it line up with God’s perspective?
TUESDAY

Let’s continue to pray for our finances. Praying God will continue to provide us opportunities to give to His kingdom. Praying for opportunities to give to those in need, more specifically for the families in the countries recently affected by storms.
WEDNESDAY
Family
Continue to pray for the families affected by Hurricane Maria.
THURSDAY
Church
As a Church, we pray for one another, especially the Churches and families in Puerto Rico, Mexico, Texas, and the Florida Keys. As we organize and collect supplies, let us pray for opportunities to help our brethren in the Lord.
FRIDAY
Leaders
We continue praying for the leaders in our city, state, and country so that God will continue to direct them in helping those affected by the storm.
SATURDAY

Pray for anyone you know who was affected by the storm and reach out to help them. Ask God to show you ways that you can help those in need.

Lost Souls
Finally, continue to pray for opportunities to assist those in need after the storm, more specifically as believers reaching out to those who do not know Christ.
