When people become homeless, two things anyone can do to help them is either to offer them a house to live with a provision or pray for them. While the first option is capital intensive and not everyone can do it, the second option can be done by anyone from anywhere.
Praying for the homeless is a noble thing and it is a way to share in their pain. Not only that, you are working silently to get their needs met. So, in this piece, we shall be looking at possible prayers for the homeless.
- Father, we pray for all destitute roaming about the street with nowhere to live that you will reach out to them in this period of their lives in the name of Jesus. Lord, please let none be missing or lost to this phase of their lives in the name of Jesus. Let none of them become an instrument of crimes in the name of Jesus.
- Lord, we pray that everyone that has become homeless for one reason or the other will find protection in the name of Jesus. Father, only you can guarantee the safety of anyone, please let them be safe wherever they may be in the name of Jesus.
- Lord, everyone that became homeless in the order of the prodigal son, please help them to retrace their step back home in the name of Jesus. Just as the prodigal son came to himself, Lord let them come to their selves wherever they may be hiding or suffering in the name of Jesus.
