The Hollywood Hills fire has left many facing devastation, loss, and uncertainty. In times of such tragedy, prayer becomes a powerful way to stand in solidarity with those affected, asking God to bring comfort, restoration, and strength to victims and their families. Psalm 34:18 (NIV) reminds us, “The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.”
As we pray for the victims, we ask God to provide for their needs, restore what has been lost, and guide them through the path of healing and rebuilding.
A Prayer for Hollywood Hills Fire Victims
Heavenly Father,
I lift up to You the victims of the Hollywood Hills fire. Lord, You see their pain, their loss, and the challenges they face in the aftermath of this tragedy. I ask that You bring comfort to those who are grieving and strength to those who are overwhelmed.
“The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit” (Psalm 34:18, NIV).
Father, provide for every need—physical, emotional, and spiritual. Bless the families who have lost their homes or loved ones. Surround them with Your peace that surpasses understanding and give them hope for the days ahead.
Lord, I pray for the firefighters and first responders who have worked tirelessly to contain the fire and rescue those in danger. Strengthen them and keep them safe as they serve. Guide the efforts of relief organizations and community members as they support the victims.
God of restoration, rebuild what has been lost. Turn ashes into beauty and sorrow into joy. Let Your presence be a source of light and hope for everyone affected by this disaster.
Thank You, Lord, for Your faithfulness and for the ways You will work through this tragedy to bring healing and renewal.
In Jesus’ name, Amen.
