Troop Prayer Thread 8

[TEXOKIE]

LOL! I guess we have stacked up a few prayers here, havent we? But I think I'm most grateful for the quality! Our troops deserve the very best, and by God's grace, I truly believe our Prayer Warriors are delivering it!

We decided early on to freshen the thread after about 300 posts or so because of loading challenges some folks have with high volume threads. We could extend our thread length to 500 or so, if there is desire out there for it. What do you think?

[TEXOKIE]

Thank you for your many prayers for our troops! Thank you also for your kind words of encouragement and support. All glory goes to God in the Highest for all the good stuff!

[TEXOKIE]

You are most welcome, patriciaruth! Knowing you are there also fighting the good fight for our troops is a continuous comfort to me as well! Thank you so much for letting us know about the needs of this very special family belonging to Bosco!

May God bless you and yours, patriciaruth, and Bosco!

[TEXOKIE]

Father,
Bless Texokie, give her Your peace and Your strength to carry on Your will in this prayer coverage for our nation. Give all her prayer partners the strength to be faithful in their chosen form of active worship to you. Let our prayers and praise ascend to you as a sweet fragrance, and may your glory and mercy descend upon our nation so bountifully that all may see it, and give You praise and thanksgiving.
I ask this in the name of Your precious Son, Jesus.
Amen

[Alamo-Girl]

Please go here to learn more and to give whatever support you may feel called to give. Thank you so very much.

[Ragtime Cowgirl]

Could you please add doug from upland's co-worker, Nick, to the prayer list? He's a civilian head of a company that makes a lifesaving film to cover glass and prevent it from exploding outward - currently working in Iraq for the CPA, traveling "RPG alley".

Thank you!

Prayers for Alamo-Girl's niece, and family.

doug's report: SSAF REPORT FROM BAGHDAD -- Monday, 11-10.

Prayers are protecting our troops mightily ~ daily, imho.

[Dubya]

We are praying for her complete healing.

[Ragtime Cowgirl]

From our 'friend' in Iraq tonight:

One of our guys got blown up in a convoy today. He'll live but that won't make news because he's just a contractor...

Would you please say a prayer for his wounded co-worker, and for our friend tonight ~ for healing, and strength, comfort and clarity - and for protection. Thank you.

Prayer Request from a Freeper Serving in Iraq

Repeating post 359 from Ragtime Cowgirl, wherein she reports to us the prayer need of our freeper "friend" in Iraq:

"From our 'friend' in Iraq tonight:
One of our guys got blown up in a convoy today. He'll live but that won't make news because he's just a contractor...

Would you please say a prayer for his wounded co-worker, and for our friend tonight ~ for healing, and strength, comfort and clarity - and for protection. Thank you.

Dear Father God in Heaven,

We place on your altar the consciousness, being and world of our "friend" in Iraq. We call forth perfect healing for his co-worker who was injured in a bombed convoy. We thank you for sparing the life of these men who are working as contractors.

Father, surround each of these and all who are serving with one of our special prayer blankets. Grant them protection, strength, courage, clarity, comfort, healing, and peace. Especially do we call forth the healing of soul and spirit when the ugly realities of war assault the senses and core being of these precious ones who are serving. Father, many of us have never seen war, and by thy grace and their service, we never shall, so we cannot fully understand the devastation to them resulting from what we ask these brothers and sisters to do. Yet while we cannot know fully, we can still appreciate the fruits of their hard-won labor and seek your guidance as to how best to support these servants of Freedom.

Father, surround the families and the loved ones of those who have been injured, and those who are in that twilight zone of not knowing a certain word about their loved one. We continue to remember the families and loved ones of those who have had to be told that their loved ones have fallen. Father, help us also to know how to support these very special families.

We are so very grateful, FAther, for all who serve in our military, for our allies who also serve, and for the families and loved ones who wait. We do beseech you to keep our troops and all contractors serving in support capacities safe and bring them home to us victorious.

Amen
