Prayers for the Mid East Turmoil

Please pray for all people in Israel, Lebanon, Syria, Iran, Iraq, Cyprus, Jordan, Turkey, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Egypt, Morroco, Lybia and any other country involved with terroristic conflict.

Lord,
Let there be peace in all the minds and heart of all people consumed with conflict.
Let the children of these be safe.
Let the leaders of these factions and countries find a way to stop hurting each other.
Let the followers of ISLAM see that hate and destruction are not a means to an end.
Save the souls of those who have been innocents in these conflicts.
Comfort those who remain alive on earth.
Subdue those who seek to destroy and dominate the world with their ideologies.
Lead them Lord, with your grace, for all is possible with you, to the light of your love, the comfort of your compassion, and the wisdom of your spirit.
Stand by your peoples and lovers of your word.

Holy Spirit,
Move in the world to end the conflicts that trouble so many countries and peoples.
Lead those who can change the dynamics of these conflicts to see and create an end to these troublesome efforts to conquer and dominate.
Lead those to safety who seek it in the face of terror, conflict and war.
Stop all wars. Bring all conflicts to an end.
Help all to see a way to live together.

Jesus,
Forgive those who have killed, those who have destroyed others lives - from either sides of any conflict.
Have mercy on us all, and on the whole world.
The world needs a stronger presence of your love and Spirit.
Lead mankind to see it and embrace it.

In your name, I pray.
Amen
