Join the NowAskJesus Prayer Marathon—send love, pray for courage, and invite someone to join you.
Someone needs your prayer right now.
For every family still without power or still cleaning out a flooded house, every neighbor frightened about tomorrow, and every person longing for hope—let’s pause and pray.
We also hold Pope Leo XIV in our prayers as he recovers from surgery, asking God for healing, comfort, and peace for him and for everyone who loves him. May all who lead communities of faith find words that comfort and the courage to put love into action.
“Bear ye one another’s burdens, and so fulfil the law of Christ.” — Galatians 6:2
You don’t need perfect words. Begin with love:
A Prayer for Those in Need Today
Heavenly Father, protect those in danger. Guide families to safety and shelter. Comfort those grieving, calm frightened hearts, and strengthen emergency workers and everyone offering help.
Bless Pope Leo XIV and all who serve Your people. Grant healing to the sick, and give those who lead compassion, courage, and wisdom to encourage peace and bring hope to those who are hurting.
Show each of us someone we can help today. Let our prayers become phone calls, open doors, meals shared, and acts of kindness. In Jesus’ name, amen.
Keep the Prayer Going
Pray for one person now—a loved one, a neighbor, or someone you have never met.
Share a request or lift up someone else’s on the NowAskJesus Prayer Wall.
Invite one other person. “Will you take a moment to pray with me? Let’s send love and encouragement to someone who needs it today.”
“Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.” — James 5:16
If you are in danger, seek safety and follow local emergency instructions.
One prayer. One act of love. One more person reminded they are not alone.
And if something is weighing on your own heart today, you can bring that question to Jesus too.
May God bless you with courage—and help you share His love wherever it is needed.
