Major fires rage across eastern Washington and Idaho and into western Montana. The weather is hot and there are winds. The fires have jumped rivers. Homes, ranches, businesses have been consumed. Firefighters have died. People have lost everything. Animals have died. In excess of 400,000 acres have burned. Other countries have been summoned for help as far away as Australia and New Zealand. The Canadians have come to assist. Resources for fighting the fires are strained.
Please pray.
God, oh God, these places need to see your mercy and goodness in the land of the living. Lord, we can only count on you for these desperate situations. Please, Lord, have mercy on your creation. Please. We ask it all in the Name, Authority, and Blood of Jesus. Amen.
