Praying your powerful prayer with you, Faith. Amen and Amen!

Lord, we pray especially for the safety of our President, First Lady, and those who accompany them on their trip to Chile. We are concerned at the happenings there but we put our trust in You. We know that Your eye is upon Your servant and that he is in Your safekeeping.

Father, we always remember our troops, especially those in harm's way in Afghanistan and Iraq. Give them the courage and the cunning to defeat a devious enemy who hides behind the innocent and commits deeds almost too evil to comprehend. Heal those who have suffered injuries and bring peace, Your peace, to those who have witnessed horrors we can't even imagine. Wrap Your arms of Love around the families who have lost loved ones in battle for a just and noble cause. Amen.

Psalm 3

¹ LORD, how they have increased who trouble me!
        Many are they who rise up against me.
       ²Many are they who say of me,
        "There is no help for him in God." Selah

       ³But You, O LORD, are a shield for me,
        My glory and the One who lifts up my head.
       ⁴I cried to the LORD with my voice,
        And He heard me from His holy hill. Selah

       ⁵I lay down and slept;
        I awoke, for the LORD sustained me.
       ⁶I will not be afraid of ten thousands of people
        Who have set themselves against me all around.

       ⁷Arise, O LORD;
        Save me, O my God!
        For You have struck all my enemies on the cheekbone;
        You have broken the teeth of the ungodly.
       ⁸Salvation belongs to the LORD.
        Your blessing is upon Your people. Selah
