Lord of Compassion, we lift up Ivory Coast in the wake of devastating floods. Many lives have been lost, families mourn, and communities face uncertainty as the waters have swept away homes and hopes. You are near to the brokenhearted and rescue those crushed in spirit — let Your comfort be known to grieving families and weary communities. Sustain the believers and relief workers laboring to bring aid and hope, and reveal Jesus to those who seek shelter and peace amidst the turmoil. May Your presence be a refuge and strength, a very present help in this time of trouble. For the sake of Your name and Your mercy, guard the vulnerable and lead them to safety. In the name of our compassionate Lord. Amen.
