Pray for Our American Heroes and Nation

Holy God,

We spend so much time and energy seeking the things of this world. Yet, we so frequently fail to recognize that the true gifts---the perfect gifts are from You and come from You, the One Who so freely gives and never changes. How simple, yet abundant our lives can be, Father, when we simply pursue You instead of all the trappings of this world. Help us, Lord, to make You our first priority, that in You we may find life’s very best, and secure our place with You in eternity.

Lord, we ask that You place loving Christians in the paths of each of our military men and women so that they receive every opportunity possible to accept Your beautiful gift of salvation. Hide them in the shadow of Your wings, Lord, so that they may be safe always and return home to their loved ones at the appointed time. May this time of service be one in which they grow to depend on You for all that they need.

Lord, guide our Supreme Court members as they soon announce their decisions on marriage issues. We know what Your will is, Lord, and we pray that these Court members submit to that will as well. Grant them the courage to rule according to Your truth, even when it may not be popular.

Help us, Father, in these troublesome times. We cannot survive this present evil day without You. Hold us close in Your everlasting arms and help us to incline our hearts unto You alone. In the Name of Jesus Christ, everlasting Lord, Amen.

And help us weed out the abominations to Your commandments out of our military and out of this nation so that this nation that was founded by those who sought to freely worship You is once again a God fearing nation.

PRAYERS ASCENDING ON HIGH FOR OUR AMERICAN HEROES AND FOR OUR BELOVED NATION!

THE PRAYER AT VALLEY FORGE

IN THE COLDEST and darkest days of the American Revolution, General George Washington raised his prayers for the survival of his beleaguered Army and of the new Nation. The Lord answered his prayers, upheld his Army through a punishing nadir to everlasting Glory, and bestowed His Manifold Blessings upon the new Nation.

FROM THE BRAVE, albeit weary, ill-equipped, and untrained volunteers who marched into Valley Forge on 19 December 1777 arose, with the help of some gallant friends from across the waves, the cohesive fighting force that became the United States Army, global defender of Freedom and scourge of Tyrants.

AS GENERAL WASHINGTON lifted his prayers on high in that bleak Winter, let our prayers now rise like a fountain for our Heroes in the American Armed Forces who seek to secure the benefits of Freedom on behalf of a people hungry for them. Father, look on our prayers for them with favor, guide their steps in righteousness and gather them in the shelter of Your Healing Wings. Bless and uphold them in the performance of their Mission. Through Jesus Christ, Your Son, with the Holy Spirit, one God, forever and ever, Amen.

HEAVENLY FATHER, Lord of the Nations, unto Your Divine Mercy we commend the souls of these valiant men and women who have fallen in the service of our Beloved Nation and in defense of the Freedoms we hold dear. We pray that You gather them in Your Loving Embrace, that You cause Your Countenance to shine upon them, and that You vouchsafe their souls to dwell eternally in Your Divine Presence. Through Jesus Christ Your Son, with the Holy Spirit, one God, forever and ever, Amen.
