Pastor Jerry McCullah leads us in prayer………
*****************************************************************
- 35 “And the same day, when the even was come, He saith unto them, Let us pass over unto the other side.
36 And when they had sent away the multitude, they took Him even as He was in the ship. And there were also with Him other little ships.
37 And there arose a great storm of wind, and the waves beat into the ship, so that it was now full.
38 And He was in the hinder part of the ship, asleep on a pillow: and they awake Him, and say unto Him, Master, carest thou not that we perish?
39 And He arose, and rebuked the wind, and said unto the sea, Peace, be still. And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm.
40 And He said unto them, Why are ye so fearful? how is it that ye have no faith?
41 And they feared exceedingly, and said one to another, What manner of man is this, that even the wind and the sea obey Him?” (Mark 4:35-41)
Almighty God, Creator, Sustainer, of all that lives and all that supports the living; we seek Your mercy on behalf of the people of all the Islands of Hawaii. Hurricane Lane has become a huge threat to life. Fear runs high among the Islanders. Resources will be taxed in all areas of need. We call upon You pleading that You might speak to this storm as we know You have before. We are placing our trust in our only All-Powerful Lord God. We take our rest in You, in Jesus, Amen!
God Bless you Pastor Jerry!
