Lord, please comfort those who mourn, protect those in danger, rescue those who are trapped, heal the wounded and mend the hearts and minds of survivors. Release them from traumatic memories and comfort them with Your love. Meet every heart affected by these tragedies in such dramatic ways, they will see Your plan of salvation and surrender to Your love. Bring Christians to them to love them, counsel them, heal their wounds and share Your Good News. Awaken Serbia, India, Ukraine, Russia, Argentina, Somalia, Libya, Greece, Portugal and the whole world to You, In each of these countries, raise up a generation of passionate followers of Christ who will love others with all Your heart and lead their nations in Your good paths. Lord, You know every heart. For those who don’t yet know You, please give them a deep hunger for You. Lift the veil from their eyes so they will see You as You truly are and surrender to Your love. Draw them into loving churches grounded in truth. Make a way for Hindus, Muslims and other unreached peoples in these countries to hear the Gospel in a way they can easily understand. Set them free to know You and to spread Your love to the nations. In Your name, Jesus. Amen.
