KEYWORDS: military; pray; prayer
By fearful and glorious things [that terrify the wicked but make the godly sing praises] do You answer us in righteousness (rightness and justice), O God of our salvation, You Who are the confidence and hope of all the ends of the earth and of those far off on the seas; (Psalm 65:5)

Oh! Father God! How we love Your Word! Truly it is life to us. You give man eyes to see and ears to hear, but to Your children You also give eyes to see the invisible truths and ears to hear Your precious still, small voice. How wonderful is our salvation. In the terror-filled world in which we are living, we can rest peacefully and live in this scripture! Selah. We will calmly meditate on this.

You have put a new song in our mouth, a song of praise to our God. Many shall see and fear (revere and worship) and put their trust and confident reliance in the Lord. With You, we call ourselves blessed (happy, fortunate, to be envied) because we have made the Lord our refuge and trust, and we turn not to the proud or to followers of false gods. (Ps. 40:3,4) We pray for citizens of our great Nation. Open eyes to Your love and Your truth and Your Life. In seeing and knowing You, choosing life is an obvious choice. We pray that You would release an army of laborers with the Good News that our loving Jesus is Lord. Prepare hearts to receive His love by Your Holy Spirit’s conviction concerning righteousness. We know that our decisions deserve Your fierce judgment, but we ask You to look on the blood-bought children who need Your deliverance from those who attempt to oppress. Help our people and our leaders discern false gods.

We ask for Your protection for each member of our military. Whether they are sent into harm’s way as agents of righteousness or in error, give Your angels charge concerning them and show them Your strong, loving arm of deliverance.

Wonderful God, we are so grateful that You hear us and answer us in Your faithful uprightness. We pray in the name of Jesus and give You praise.

Amen.

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



GEN. GEORGE WASHINGTON
THE PRAYER AT VALLEY FORGE

"Let Tyrants Shake Their Iron Rod"
William Billings
Mixed District Choir, Fairfax, Virginia

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.


Lafayette

Steuben

Pulaski

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.



SHADOWS AT ARLINGTON
God Of Our Fathers, Whose Almighty Hand

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.

Genuflectimus non ad principem sed ad Principem Pacis!

Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)
