Dear Lord,
So many good men and women are asked
to put themselves in danger in their jobs as soldiers, and so many are
finding themselves in danger every day.
The soldiers work faithfully.
Give them your protection, Lord, be a shield and a fortress to them, not
only to their physical safety, but to their spirit, so that they can cope
with the dangers their job entails, so they can comfort and uphold one
another and can advance your purposes in the world.
We know that you have upheld them to
this moment and with faith rejoice that you will continue to do so.
Lord, hold our troops in your loving
hands. Protect them as they protect us. Bless them and their
families for the selfless acts they perform for us in our time of need.
Amen.
Heavenly Father, we ask a special
blessing and protection for each one of our soldiers willing to put their
lives on the line for the freedom and protection of others. We thank
You for each of these soldiers and especially pray for the salvation of
those who do not know You as their Savior and are in harms way. We
pray for those in leadership positions making the decisions regarding this
war, especially for our President. Please guide their thoughts and
decisions.
Let us not forget the families of
those who have given their lives in this war, be with them and give them
Your peace which passes all understanding. Bless each one who comes
to you in prayer and hear our prayers, O Lord, creator of all the Universe
and those who dwell therein.
We ask these things in the Name of
Your Son and our Savior, Jesus Christ. |
