Prayers for Peace – For serenity and comfort whenever we are overwhelmed by the confusion and hardship of life, we can turn to God in prayer for guidance and assistance.

In Philippians 4:6, the Bible tells us, “Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God.”

It’s easy to pray for peace. First, confess your faith in God as your Lord and Savior. Then offer your particular peace plea to God.

We’ve assembled a collection of historic and contemporary peace prayers for inspiration. Edit your words to fit your life.

Scripture says “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and does not lean on your own understanding” (Proverbs 3:5).

We’ve compiled a list of powerful prayers for peace that you may use to ask for comfort and tranquility in your life.

in the image of God,
and within our souls there is a fingerprint

We pray for those who have no regard
for anyone but self,
who put no value on human life.
For nations and individuals who abuse and kill.
We are not called to be judge or jury,
but we are called to be agents of change,
and if the butterfly that flaps its wings
should be our attitude to others
then so be it, Lord,
and may the hurricane this generates
somewhere within the world
reach into the hearts and souls of those
for whom we pray, and reveal to them
how precious are those
for whom they have no love,
and how precious are they
who now bring tears to the eyes of God.
