Almighty God an merciful Father I come to you in prayer, for the Brush fires that are burning out of control in Victoria. We know that these fires are part of greater plan that we often not understand and we plead for the lives that are endangered in the attempt to stop them. Father God have mercy on all of the ones that are fighting these fires, and bring the weather conditions that may be in their favor and help them in their efforts. In Jesus Name I pray keep their lives protected and safe, that they may praise and glorify Your name . We give you thanks and glory for the forthcoming answers. Amen

Through the name of the Almighty God and everlasting Spirit;
--- In Times of Conflict ---
O God, you have bound us together in a common life. Help us, in the midst of our struggles for justice and truth, to confront one another without hatred or bitterness, and to work together with mutual forbearance and respect; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
--- For Towns and Rural Areas ---
Lord Christ, when you came among us, you proclaimed the Kingdom of God in villages, towns, and the lonely places: Grant that your presence and power may be known throughout this land. Have mercy upon all of us who live and work in rural areas (especially - Victoria); and grant that all the people of our nation may give thanks to you for food and drink and all other bodily necessities of life, respect those who labor to produce them, and honor the land and water from which these things comes. All this we ask in your holy Name.
Amen.
--- For Rain ---
O God, Heavenly Father, who by "thy" Son Jesus Christ hast promised to all those who seek thy kingdom and its rightousness all things necessary to sustain their life: Send us, we entreat thee, in this time of need, such moderate rain and showers, that we may receive the fruits of the earth, to our comfort and to thy honor; through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Amen.
--- For Those We Love ---
Almighty God, we entrust all who are dear to us in thy never-failing care and love, for this life and the life to come, knowing that thou art doing for them better things that we can desire or pray for; through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Amen.
--- For Protection ---
Assist us mercifully, O Lord, in these our supplications and prayers, and dispose the way of thy servants towards the attainment of everlasting salvation; that, among all the changes and chances of this mortal life, they may ever be defended by thy gracious and ready help; through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Amen.
--- For Heroic Service ---
O Judge of the nations, we remember before you with grateful hearts the men and women of our country who in the day of decision ventured much for the liberties we now enjoy. Grant that we may not rest until all the people of this land share the benefits of true freedom and gladly accept its disciplines. This we ask in the Name of Jesus Christ or Lord.
Amen.

God Bless!
