COPY PASTED:

PADANG, Indonesia � A powerful earthquake that struck western Indonesia trapped thousands of people under collapsed buildings � including hospitals, a hotel and a classroom, officials said. At least 200 bodies were found in one coastal city and the toll was expected to be far higher.



The temblor Wednesday started fires, severed roads and cut off power and communications to Padang, a coastal city of 900,000 on Sumatra island. Thousands fled in panic, fearing a tsunami. It was felt hundreds of miles (kilometers) away in Malaysia and Singapore, causing buildings there to sway.



The undersea quake of 7.6 magnitude was followed by a powerful, shallow inland earthquake on Thursday morning with a preliminary magnitude of 6.8, the U.S. Geological Survey said. It hit about 150 miles (240 kilometers) south of Padang at a depth of just under 20 miles (24 kilometers).



Shallow, inland earthquakes generally are more destructive. There were reports that the second quake badly damaged dozens of additional buildings.

I pray in Jesus name that the children of God in this places will be spared and for the people to know the true and living God.

Father, Loving and merciful Lord, who heals those that are broken in heart, and turns the sadness of the sorrowful to joy, please be with those who are suffering, lost family, and are homeless now. You are the only hope and refuge, where we flee for relief and comfort trusting Your infinite love and grace. Please help those people in crises & distress, to see You, give them the strength to repent before You. Lift up Your children in this country, Lord please keep them safe from the evil one to shine and be Your witnesses. Supply all their needs according to Your riches in glory by Christ Jesus.
