Pray for our American Heroes
March 14, 2015 | Irish Rose

Why should I fear when evil days come,
when wicked deceivers surround me –
those who trust in their wealth
and boast of their great riches?
No man can redeem the life of another
or give to God a ransom for him –
the ransom for a life is costly,
no payment is ever enough –
that he should live on forever
and not see decay.

For all can see that wise men die;
the foolish and the senseless alike perish
and leave their wealth to others.
Their tombs will remain their houses forever,
their dwellings for endless generations,
though they had named lands after themselves.
(Psalm 49:5-11)

Father God, we thank You for spring, for the warmer weather and the new life.

Father, we pray that You would comfort those who mourn the deaths of the Marines and National Guardsmen killed in a helicopter crash this week.

Lord, why should we fear when evil days come, when wicked deceivers surround us – those who trust in their wealth and boast of their great riches? They will perish and leave their wealth to others, and their tombs will remain their houses forever, their dwellings for endless generations. No man can redeem the life of another or give to God a ransom for him – the ransom for a life is costly, no payment is ever enough – that he should live on forever and not see decay. But You, Lord, have paid the ransom for our souls and given us eternal life. What we could never have bought You gave us freely, through the atoning blood of Jesus Christ, in whose Name we pray, Amen.

Amen to your prayer of comfort, Irish Rose.

Also joining in prayer for our beloved America and our heroes. May all God's people trust in the Lord and not be dismayed by the wicked, who trust only in their riches.
