While Americans are still reeling from the unexpected mass impact of the inland hurricane with Helene, yet another powerful storm [has hit] Florida. IFA intercessors across the nation have been praying about the results of Helene–praying for families, praying for disaster relief, praying for infrastructure, praying for leadership. And we are now praying about Milton.

There are many challenges in disaster recovery. If you have never experienced being in a natural disaster such as a hurricane, tornado, fire or flood, you may not have thought of the kinds of decisions and actions that go into relief efforts. Some are short term, but much of the recovery effort is a long-term project. In an attempt to provide truth, prayer direction, and hope in this shared disaster, IFA is encouraging you to use our comments section to both ask for prayer ... encouragement and hope to those who need it. We will continue to offer updates from our relief partner, CityServe, who is currently on site in the southeast and is already positioning for efforts in Florida.

Here are some points of prayer over the situation:

• Pray for the immediate needs of families to be met: Rescue. Medical attention. Food and Water.
• Pray for roads and bridges to be evaluated and repaired to bring more accessibility to areas hardest hit.
• Pray for wise management and distribution of relief resources. It can be difficult to manage a wide supply chain of donations, maintain safe and organized storage, and then distribute items needed to the appropriate locations and families.
• Pray for housing solutions for families who have been displaced.
• Pray for the Body of Christ to lead the way in offering help, prayer, support, and community.
• Pray for the restoration of infrastructure, including electricity, gas delivery, road repair, and communications.
• Pray about debris clean-up, which is a huge undertaking that requires many people and the right equipment to reach strategic locations.
• Pray for families who are dealing with loss of life, loss of homes, and loss of jobs.
• Pray that Americans would continue to actively help efforts, donate toward recovery, and pray for those in need.
• Pray for those providing assistance: linemen, clean-up crews, aid workers, truck drivers, pilots, cooks, chainsaw teams, civil engineers, construction crews, warehouse workers, counselors, and general volunteers.
• Pray for mayors, city workers, officials, firefighters, police, and the governors of affected states.
• Pray for affected citizens to be able to vote in the elections in affected states and for safe and legitimate voting methods.
• Pray for long-term projects to rebuild homes, towns, and businesses and revitalize communities.
• Pray for those in the path of Milton who are yet to be impacted. Pray for strategic preparations.
• Pray for the Lord to calm the storm and for minimal impact.
• Pray for the Body of Christ to shine in the midst of darkness in our nation!

IFA hosted a 24 hour prayer vigil from 5 pm Tuesday, October 8 to 5 pm Wednesday, October 9. Thousands of intercessors joined the conference call prayer time to pray for Florida and the Helene recovery. It was a beautiful time of prayer and intercession.
