At least one person died and more than 60 were injured in yet another earthquake in Southeastern Turkey this Monday. The 5.6 magnitude temblor, which toppled buildings in Malatya Province, came a week after last Monday's 6.3 quake in Antakya, and three weeks after the first Monday earthquake with a death toll which has now climbed past 50,000. Let's continue to pray.
Lord, please have mercy. Heal those who are injured. Wrap Your arms around families who have lost loved ones, homes, businesses and more. Comfort them, speak softly to them, and give them peace. Begin even now putting in place Your plans for rebuilding their lives. Give them hope. Deepen Christians' faith in You. Comfort them with songs of deliverance. Remind them of encouraging verses they can share with others, who will then share with others, so that Your Word runs throughout the lines of those in need, strengthening the weary and bringing hope to the hopeless and faith to those who doubt. Please provide shelter for believers, food, water, warm blankets, heat, medical care and anything else they need during this difficult time, especially Christian refugees from countries like Iran, Afghanistan and Syria, who may not receive the aid they need because they are not citizens. Tend to those who are injured and heal their wounds. Provide for every believer so abundantly they will also abundantly help others in need. Multiply supplies as You did with the loaves and fishes. Whenever a Christian gives away food, clothes, blankets or other supplies — even sacrificially, knowing they themselves will go without — make more and more of whatever is needed appear so miraculously all will see and know only You could do that. Make news of Your power and love run throughout the camps of displaced people. Give them such a hunger for You they will seek out Christians and ask questions that lead to salvation. Give Christians wisdom as they organize ways to help those in need. Bring forth Christian doctors, nurses, aid workers and counselors who will care for people in tender, loving ways, sharing Your love as they help people to healing. Raise up churches and Christian homes to shelter those in need. Turn every eye to You, O God. Show them who You are. Whenever anyone cries out to You, answer them so miraculously they are changed forever. Meet every person in dreams and visions, deepening the faith of believers and pointing the lost to salvation. Desperate times make for hearts who sincerely seek Truth, so step in front of each person who needs You, even those who have run from You or persecuted those who love You. Meet with them face-to-face, now, in their time of great need. Give them such a powerful encounter with You they tremble, repent, and then surrender to Your grace. Begin a church planting movement all across this region that spreads to other nations. Awaken Turkey and Syria to Your love, O Lord. Bring forth NEW LIFE.
