Abba Father, we lift up those suffering from dengue across Bangladesh. Bring Your healing power upon every patient and protect the healthy from infection. Strengthen the healthcare workers and give wisdom to those responding to the outbreak. May Your mercy cover the land and bring a swift end to this disease. Amen (The Bible, Jeremiah 30:17).
Lord, we pray for the families affected by dengue, especially those caring for loved ones in hospitals. Grant them strength, peace, and hope in this difficult time. Calm their fears and sustain their faith as they wait for healing. Let Your presence be felt in every home and hospital. Amen (The Bible, Psalm 29:11).
