Psalm 91:1-2 NLT

Those who live in the shelter of the Most High will find rest in the shadow of the Almighty. This I declare about the Lord: He alone is my refuge, my place of safety; He is my God, and I trust Him.

Heavenly Father,

You are our refuge and fortress, a steadfast protector in whom we place our trust. Your presence offers a sanctuary of peace and safety, revealing Your unending love and care for us. Today, we come before You, united in prayer for the prosperity and well-being of Shelby County, Tennessee.

We ask, Lord, that Your protective hand be over every corner of Shelby County. Shelter our community from harm, and grant us peace amidst the storms of life. May Your faithfulness be a shield around us, guarding our hearts and homes.

Inspire us, Heavenly Father, to dwell in Your shelter and find rest in Your shadow. In You, may we find the strength and courage to face each day, confident in Your providence and protection. Let Your presence in our lives be a source of comfort and assurance to all who seek refuge.

Bless our community with unity, love, and prosperity. Guide our steps as we walk in Your ways, striving to create a community that reflects Your love and justice. Empower our leaders with wisdom and compassion, that they may serve with integrity and seek the common good.

Strengthen our bonds of community, drawing us closer to one another and to You. May Shelby County flourish as a testament to Your grace, a place where all residents experience Your abundance and peace.

We place our trust in You, Heavenly Father, confident in Your loving care and guidance. Lead us forward in hope and faith, for the prosperity of Shelby County and the glory of Your name.

We offer this prayer in the precious name of Christ Jesus.

Amen.
