Cuba Earthquake, Philippine Storms, Violence in China and the World

PHILIPPINES: Yet another typhoon, Toraji, hit the storm-weary islands Monday. This makes the fourth storm in three weeks. The last two typhoons and a tropical storm caused more than 160 deaths and affected over 9 million people.

CUBA: A 6.8 magnitude earthquake shook the eastern coast Sunday, just after Hurricane Rafael ripped through the island Wednesday on the tail of Oscar and multiple blackouts.

MEXICO: A mass shooting at a bar in central Mexico killed 10 people and injured 13 Saturday in Querétaro.

CHINA: A man intentionally drove his car over people exercising at a sports center in Zhuhai on Tuesday, killing 35 and injuring 43.

SYRIA: US forces hit nine IRAN-linked militia targets following attacks on American troops.

Let’s also continue to pray for those affected by these wars: UKRAINE and RUSSIA, MYANMAR, as well as ISRAEL, GAZA, LEBANON and beyond.

Lord, please awaken every heart in each of these countries and situations to Your love. So much danger, death and instability reminds us of humanity’s desperate need for You. Please rescue those in danger, comfort those who grieve, and speak to the hearts of those who are afraid or hurting. Touch each heart in such personal ways they will at last realize You are the One they long for. When they cry out to You, answer them, O Lord, in a way they will recognize it is You. Give the lost a hunger for peace, meaning, acceptance and love; and then satisfy them with Your felt presence. Bring Christians to them to show them Your love, care for their needs and share the good news of Your salvation. Bless Your people abundantly so they will also abundantly share with those in need around them. Bring Christian counselors, medical workers and other aid workers to those in need. And set the captives free, Lord. Lift the veil from the eyes of the lost so they will see You as You truly are and surrender their hearts to You as Savior. In the midst of every trial and tragedy, push back the enemy’s purposes, and bring forth Yours. Convince us of Your truth. Let us feel Your love like never before. And bring forth Your Kingdom in every heart, home, city and nation. Yes, Lord, awaken the whole Earth to Your salvation. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
