KOB TV in Albuquerque is reporting:

DURANGO, Colo. – A fast-growing fire is burning about 10-miles north of Durango in the Mitchell Lakes area. As of 1:00 p.m., The 416 Fire had burned between 100 and 150 acres.

We are praying for the safety of all! It is getting hard to keep up with all the fires.
Pastor Mark Grothe posted this prayer earlier today:

Today, let’s pray for Favor from Our Heavenly Father for rain…

Heavemly Father, You give rain on the earth and sends waters on the fields. Right now, we are asking for rain. Many areas are in need. (Taken from Job 5:10)

We want to start and ask for forgiveness in areas of our lives that have displeased You. We ask for You to Search our hearts and minds and prod us in those areas that we need to flee. We ask You to show us where we need to repent and return to You, for You have said, “If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.” (Found in 2 Chronicles 7:14 KJV). We don’t want to return to You just so You would heal our land, but that we will please You.

There are many areas, like Northern New Mexico, that are experiencing fires. Our firefighters are continuously fighting these fires. We ask for You to Protect them. We ask You to watch over their families, as they answer this call You gave them. Watch over their minds and bodies as they are becoming exhausted, weary, and possibly anxious, and angry.

We are asking for cooling rains. We are asking for replenishing rains. We are asking for You to end the droughts in these areas that are in need.

We thank You that You would even consider hearing our prayers and requests today. We thank You that Yiu provide for us. We thank You that You Love us more than anything we can think of and without remorse towards us. We know it is us who have disobeyed You. We thank You for how You will Work all of this our for us.

In Jesus Name, Amen
