Prayer Request for my deployed husband (Iraq)

Posted on 07/07/2008 8:51:12 PM PDT by PERKY2004

My wonderful husband (Ron) is in his last week of his fourth tour in Iraq with the USAF (he's a pilot with a special ops unit.) For some reason, I've just been very anxious / sleepless the last few nights worrying about his safety ... he is scheduled to come home in a week, by the way.

* Please pray for his continued safety, for successful missions, and for his timely and hassle-free "out processing" * Please pray for his travel home, including connections and layovers. (He should be on military transport until he reaches the US East Coast, then catches commercial flights home to California.) * Please pray for my peace of mind, anxiety and worry. (I am prone to panic attacks)

And can I say that my wonderful DH is a strong man of God who is in his 25th year of military service? And that I am soooo looking forward to his homecoming?

Prayers going up for your family. In the meantime, Molly, know that your brave husband has the prayers of untold numbers, and that he is in God’s hands—the best postition to be in always.

Just rest in Him and trust in Him, and we will continue to pray blessings for your family.

I consider it an honor to pray for those who serve our country so selflessly, that includes not only your husband, but his family (YOU!) as well. Thank you!

Hi - will pray for hubby’s safe return.

BTW it’s quite normal to get more anxious the closer the time is to his return. It seems like all the concerns are somehow compressed and focused into this smaller space of time.

Don’t let yourself become a prophet of doom though and speak words of faith towards his return.

Lord, bring Ron home safely. Bring all our troops home safely in good time. We pray for peace through victory, that our troops will not have died in vain. Amen.

And Lord, please heal and save our wounded. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Place your deep need into HIS almighty hands. In faith live the coming days at rest, assured HE will arrange for the happy reunion to occur. HE who can do all things knows what you are going through.
As a child with a wonderful dad knows dad will take care of business at hand, let HIM your father in Heaven take care of your need. He will not fail you. And when you falter a bit, do ask for HIM to forgive your lack of faith. HE knows your inner needs more so then you do. And surely HE is a loving and gracious God for those that put their faith in HIM.

Lord Jesus,

I thank you for Molly and her brave husband. I pray that you would bring him home safely and bless their reunion. I pray for Molly, that the peace that surpasses all understanding would guard her heart and her mind and that her anxiety would turn to joy, anticipation and excitement. I thank you now for her husband’s safe return home. We thank you for his willingness to serve and protect this nation we were so blessed to be born in. All this I pray in the name of Jesus, Amen.
