Dear God, please look down on this land of desolation and if
it be Thy will, please send rain that we might flourish again.
It’s so bad here. Thanks for the ping, Kathy.
Thank you, Kathy! I’ve been praying for my old ‘stomping grounds’ for some time, now!
Lord God,
We know you are keenly aware of these fires engulfing Texas areas and the terrible droughts throughout.... Peoples lives are in danger now Lord... so we ask for your protection for them as they battle this blaze and those who must flee it....give the firemen good discernment to make right calls in order to get this all contained...and move those out of harms way that need to go... give them all strength and wisdom as they travel to a safe place.
Provide and care for each Lord...until this has come to pass....In Christ’s name Amen.
Prayers for those suffering in the wake of and yet in the path of these raging, terrifying fires Lord, shed Your infinite mercy on them.
I hope we hear from Arrowhead, FFForFreedom...who is a firefighter in that area..El Gato....and other FReepers who might be in danger.
So, so terrifying and horrible. God hold them in His loving, safe arms and comfort their grieving loved ones.

Thanks for the ping, Kathy. I’ve been praying.
Heavenly Father,
We appeal to you and your son, our Lord Jesus to calm the raging fires in Texas. Lord Jesus, you have command of the elements and we beseech you to intercede according to the Will of our Father in these fires. Heal the cause and core behind these fires!
Father, let there be the purification of our hearts so that we may more fully join our Lord in His work in Texas and throughout the world, especially in the areas in which we are ourselves standing.
Father, bless and heal the people who have been affected in an adverse way by these fires. Guide, guard, direct and protect the fire fighters and emergency personnel in their work.
We ask that this will be done for each and every situation where there is a similarity of need, and that it is all done only according to thy will.
Father, we are grateful for your ever-listening ear and watchful eye upon us. Lord Jesus, walk with us this day and help us to be mindful of your love and the love of our Father and His blessed Holy Spirit with us.
Amen
