Lord Jesus,
We pray for Justin Lansford, a warrior for this nation, who has been severely injured in combat. Your heart has always appreciated soldiers, Lord, from David to Cornelius, one a shepherd raised to King and the other the first gentile through whom the message of grace was made clear.
We pray for Your grace upon Justin. He has given everything for his friends, and in that we find an illustration of Your own love for us. “Greater love has no man than this, that he lay down his life for his friends.”
Uphold him, we pray, by Your power. Guide those who minister healing to him. And, when their insight is used up, Lord, we pray for Your greater sight that sees all and understands all.
And with Justin on our hearts, we pray for all of our warriors, that they would win every engagement with their enemies. And we pray for this nation whose leaders are not worthy of the sacrifice our warriors make, for these national leaders endlessly dither selfishly on their own prestige and entitlement.
Cause Justin to be made whole, Lord Jesus. Restore his body, his sight, and his resolve.
We pray this in Your holy name; Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, Amen.
I stand in agreement.
Amen.
Thanks for the ping.
Amen, in Jesus’ name.
Amen
