Haitians Starving, Trapped by Violence

Gang violence in Port au Prince has left hundreds of innocent civilians dead, many more wounded, nearly 300 kidnapped for ransom, and about 17,000 displaced from their homes over the past few months. Since an intense war over the neighborhood of Cité Soleil began last week, thousands of Haitians are now trapped without help. Many are dying of hunger because they can’t get out of the city, and food and water can’t get in. Others who have tried to escape have been found shot dead on the road.

Lord, please have mercy on Haiti right now. You miraculously provided for missionaries gang members kidnapped last fall, when You guided them to walk past the guards out into the jungle and over a mountain to safety. We ask You for another miracle now. Please guard Christians and innocent people everywhere in Haiti, and especially those who are trapped in the midst of fighting in Port au Prince. Save their lives. Be a Shield around them. March Your angel armies into the midst of the turmoil and let the violent see You coming and tremble at the sight of You. Haunt them in their dreams and call them to Yourself throughout the day. Each time an evil plot is formed, foil it. Capture every one of those who are causing harm, make their guns misfire, break their legs and arms, make them stop what they’re doing, and bring them to justice. Miraculously, Lord. For You are the God of Miracles. Come and meet the Haitian people in their time of need and gather them up into Your arms to be carried and protected by You through the mayhem. Bring forth a leader who will love his country, and a police force that is well fortified to combat and crush every gang and other violent offenders bent on murder and destruction. Wherever there are Christians who are trapped right now in affected areas, please call them to organize prayer meetings with their neighbors. Multiply their resources so abundantly and use their prayers to miraculously heal those who have been harmed or who are starving or ill, so that all will see that You are the God of Love, that You see them, You love them, and You care for their needs. Help Christians openly share of their provisions and Your love and healing with those in need, and use this terrible crisis to bring many lost into Your Kingdom. Including the murderers, Lord. Touch their hearts so deeply with Your love, they open wide to receive Your forgiveness and salvation, and then turn to lead other gang members to faith in You. Awaken Haiti to Your love and salvation now, Father. May anarchy pass away and Your Kingdom come soon to the people of Haiti who need You so desperately.
