God Cares

Isaiah 63:9 (HCSB)

     ⁹ In all their suffering, He suffered, and the Angel of His Presence saved them. He redeemed them because of His love and compassion; He lifted them up and carried them all the days of the past.

Father with all of the anguish, pain, violence, chaos, disasters and suffering that people are going through, in America and around the world, we lift them up in prayer today.

Father may they feel your presence and that it is your desire to encourage them, lift them and carry them in your arms of love.

Father may they be comforted by the truth that because Jesus “….himself has gone through suffering and testing, he is able to help us when we are being tested.” Hebrews 2:18 (NLT

Father may they understand that Jesus identifies with them in their suffering and loss and that he is “touched with the feeling of their infirmities” Heb. 4:15

Father may they know that Jesus sympathizes with them because he was “…..a man of sorrows, acquainted with deepest grief….” Isaiah 53:3 (NLT)

Father may they take the counsel of your word “Give all your worries and cares to God, for he cares about you.” 1 Peter 5:7 (NLT)

And Father as Audrey Mieir’s reminds us in her wonderful song: “It Matters to God About You.”

It matters to him about you

Your heartaches your sorrow he shares.
Regardless of what you may do
He wants you, He loves you, he cares.
Oh yes, it matters to him about you.
Believe it because it is true.
Cling to his hand, He'll understand
For it matters to Him about you.

We ask this in Jesus holy and matchless name. Amen
