Please, as Your word promises, keep them in perfect peace steady their minds and help them to trust in You (Isaiah 26:3), in Jesus’ name, amen.The Emergency Medical Assistants Licensing Board is the regulatory body established for the health profession of emergency medical assistants (paramedics and first responders). They are all too aware of the dangers their loved ones face. Lord, have mercy on those who must wait, trust and hope every time a first responder goes into action. Pray for the family and loved ones of first responders. “Strengthen the hands that are weak and the knees that are feeble, and make straight paths for feet” (Hebrews 12:12, NASB) focus their minds and hearts and steel them against panic and fatigue, in Jesus’ name, amen.Ħ. Lord God, as You commanded Joshua, so grant that first responders everywhere may “Be strong and courageous…not be afraid…not be discouraged.” Help them to know that You will be with them wherever they go (Joshua 1:9, NIV). Give them wisdom from You, Lord, and help them in their moment of need to make timely and wise decisions, in Jesus’ name, amen. I ask for discernment on behalf of first responders, who frequently face complex situations and must make snap decisions. God, Your word says that anyone who lacks wisdom should ask You, and You will provide it. Pray for them to be wise in the discharge of their duties. Hide them in the shadow of Your wings and cover them with your feathers let Your faithfulness be their shield and rampart (see Psalm 91:14-16).Ĥ. Show Yourself strong on their behalf and be their refuge and fortress in times of danger. Give Your angels charge concerning them, to guard them in all their ways (Psalm 91:11). Father God, keep our first responders safe in every situation.
