Heavy rain has caused flooding in eastern Australia that has forced 2,000 people to leave their homes and isolated thousands of other residents.
Michael Gallacher, the emergency services minister for New South Wales, declared some northern parts of the state disaster areas Wednesday. Heavy rain has fallen for three days and more was expected overnight.
Greg Gill of New South Wales emergency services described flooded areas as "just a sea of water" and said 10,000 people were isolated. Many roads are impassable, and swollen rivers are still rising.
Police reported one death, a driver killed when a tree fell and struck his car Wednesday morning.

PUT YOUR TRUST IN YAHSHUA/JESUS

Hosea 4:6-9 (New King James Version)
6 My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge. Because you have rejected knowledge, I also will reject you from being priest for Me; Because you have forgotten the law of your Elohim/God, I also will forget your children. 7 “ The more they increased, The more they sinned against Me; I will change[a] their glory[b] into shame. 8 They eat up the sin of My people; They set their heart on their iniquity. 9 And it shall be: like people, like priest. So I will punish them for their ways, And reward them for their deeds. Hosea 6:1-3 (New King James Version)
A Call to Repentance 1 Come, and let us return to Yahweh/the LORD; For He has torn, but He will heal us; He has stricken, but He will bind us up. 2 After two days He will revive us; On the third day He will raise us up, That we may live in His sight. 3 Let us know, Let us pursue the knowledge of Yahweh/the LORD. His going forth is established as the morning; He will come to us like the rain, Like the latter and former rain to the earth.
