God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble - Psalm 46 

Almighty God, Creator and preserver of our world. We ask you to hear our humble prayers for all those affected by the devastating floodwaters.  

We pray for all threatened by floodwaters in city & rural areas. Protect both life and property.  

In your mercy, bring relief to affected areas.  We pray for the sick, the injured and the homeless. Give courage and hope in the midst of despair.  

Grant wisdom to those who assist, especially government leaders, our State Emergency Service, our Australian Defence Force, other emergency workers and aid agencies.  

By your gracious hand, rebuild communities where men, women and children are nurtured with care and love.      

At this time, may we find peace and hope in your Son, Jesus Christ.      

In His name we pray.    

AMEN.
