Most Sovereign Holy God,

Your people turn to you today as we become aware of the devastation
that has inflicted our cities, our homes and our hearts.
We ask for your comfort to pour down from heaven to all who mourn.
We ask for peace to rest on all who fear.
We ask for healing for those who are broken.
We rest in the absolute assurance that you are in control.
We know that we are not immune from the evil that is present in this
world but we are not people of this world. We are people of eternity.
Lord, we ask that in this day of terror hearts will turn to you.

Glorify your name as we turn to you.
Amen.

The LORD is my light and my salvation -- whom shall I fear? The LORD is the stronghold of my life -- of whom shall I be afraid? When evil men advance against me to devour my flesh, when my enemies and my foes attack me, they will stumble and fall. Though an army besiege me, my heart will not fear; though war break out against me, even then will I be confident.

One thing I ask of the LORD, this is what I seek: that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to gaze upon the beauty of the LORD and to seek him in his temple. For in the day of trouble he will keep me safe in his dwelling; he will hide me in the shelter of his tabernacle and set me high upon a rock. -- Psalm 27

Sheila Walsh is a speaker for Women of Faith conferences, author and recording artist.

This is a time for all Americans to pray for the thousands of victims, their families, and loved ones that have been affected by the tragic events of today. These atrocities remind us how precious life is and how important it is to be spiritually ready to stand before and give account to Almighty God.

My prayer is that the people of this nation will turn their eyes and hearts to the Lord and seek His wisdom and protection. May all Americans pray for our president and government leaders that God would guide and direct them as they lead our nation during these dark hours.

Franklin Graham is president of Samaritan's Purse and CEO of the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association

In light of the recent terrorist attacks on our country, we ask for your immediate and fervent prayer on behalf of our nation's victims, our government leaders, and those dedicated individuals rendering aid and assistance in New York and Washington, D.C.

We are blessed to report that all Campus Crusade staff in New York City and Washington, D.C., are well and accounted for. Many are already on the scene praying and encouraging those in shock and pain with the message of our Lord's love.

As God would have it, our President's Cabinet was in session when the attacks happened. We are dedicating ourselves to doing what Jesus would have us do in this time of national crisis.

The promise of Romans 8:28 has not ceased to be true. We have every reason to hope and not despair. Please claim God's wisdom for us and the Crisis Management Team as we continue to meet.

Steve Douglass is president of Campus Crusade for Christ.
