Lord God, we pray about the fatal gas leak in India’s state of Andhra Pradesh. The images
and facts are overwhelming. With at least 11 people dying right where they
stood or as they drove, having breathed in the toxic fumes, the situation must
have been terrifying. We pray for the more than 1000 people who were exposed
and the 25+ who are currently in critical condition. We pray for those who are
still in the affected area, that they will be able to safely evacuate as soon as
possible. We pray for the hospitals, overwhelmed with new patients amid the
already chaotic coronavirus pandemic. Heavenly Father, the residents of this
part of Andhra Pradesh need your intervention. Lord God, we also cry out for
truth and recompense. We pray that any negligence committed by this LG Polymers
plant will be revealed. We pray the company will take responsibility for
their costly errors. We pray for shelter, food, and other basic needs to be met
for those who have fled their homes for an undetermined time. Guide the region’s
leaders as they seek to handle this emergency, and may citizens look out for
each other, rather than taking advantage of this vulnerable situation. In Jesus’
name we pray, amen.
