Prayers for our troops & their families. May God Bless them & keep them safe.
Lord God, Heavenly Perfect King, You are Lamb of God who was slain for our sins. You are the Victor who sits on the throne with everything, including death under Your feet. Lord God, we continue to try to walk out the work You give us, but You know our efforts our futile if Your power is not in them. Lord God this goes especially for our troops serving overseas. Lord God many of the enemy represent a supernatural evil. We cannot come against this and hope to win in our own strength. And so we call out to You, to draw more and more troops to faith in You, that they might call to You and enlist Your support, Your supernatural invading their natural to have lasting effect on the enemy’s turf in this way.
Lord God, we ask the same for those who support our troops. Father, we are not unmindful of how You have answered our prayers and brought people to the recent rallies. Indeed, we thank you for all you have done!! But the task is not complete. God, Father God, we ask You to put Your sovereing protection and provision around all those who love You in accordance with Your promises and where the people ahve been faithful to You and Your principles, do the work and cause progress to be made. We cannot do this but You can!!! We ask Your special blessing on events beginning Monday and through the week regarding Gen. Petraeus’ hearing before Congress. Lord God, cause them to vote in favor of continued funding. Silence the mouth of the accuser and slanderer in the House testimony sessions. Give Petraues words from You that carry Your power on them and cause the enemy’s voice to be STILLED! Lord God, bring just who You intend to D.C. for the calling on congressmen on Monday and Vets on the Hill as the week ensues give all travelling mercies that they might find safe passage there and back. Cause there to be unexpected results in a way which reveals Your hand in this!! Put watchmen on the walls who will understand how important it is to stand faithful in prayer even as others are walking out the work in the natural.
Lord God thank you for bringing so many of the 3rd LAR home safely next week to TwentyNine Palms. Cause them to know how much we appreciate them!
Lord God comfort those whose sons, daughters, husbands, wives, etc have made the ultimate sacrifice recently as well as the Maupin family whose son’s remains were just found this week after he was kidnapped four years ago.
Lord God, You must fulfill Your promises, so over time, use all these things which cause us to grieve so much for good!!! We must trust in You and believe You will do this!
Father God, we also pray for safety for our warriors still in harm’s way and that Osama Bin Laden would be CAUGHT!
Father, encourage those who are injured that their lives still have divine purpose and give them strength and a knowledge of you to perservere.
Thank you for all those who stand up for our troops, especially those at Walter Reed every Friday night FReeping who celebrating a special birthday of consecutive weeks of service at the end of March. Lord God bless these people richly.
WE stand in awe of You, Lord. Do the work. We will tell the story and You will be glorified. In Jesus’ mighty Name, Amen
