Prayer for Animals

Animals are a precious part of God’s creation, designed to bring joy, companionship, and beauty into the world. Whether they are pets, wildlife, or farm animals, they reflect the creativity and goodness of God’s handiwork. Genesis 1:24 (NIV) says, “And God said, ‘Let the land produce living creatures according to their kinds: the livestock, the creatures that move along the ground, and the wild animals, each according to its kind.’ And it was so.” This verse reminds us that animals are part of God’s design and deserve our care and stewardship.

As we pray for animals, we are also expressing gratitude for the roles they play in our lives, whether through companionship, work, or the ecological balance they help maintain. Prayer is a way to ask God for protection and healing over our pets or animals in distress, as well as to bless the creatures that enrich our world.

Let this prayer be an opportunity to recognize the importance of all living beings and invite God’s hand of protection and care over them.
