PRAYER WARRIOR FIELD TRIP!!
I realize that I am a little behind in making replies to our prayer thread, but I was pinged a little while ago to the following thread for an injured marine helicopter pilot who is in critical condition and is need of our immediate prayer support.

We offer our prayers for the young marine helicopter pilot who is in critical condition following a mishap with that UH-1N Huey.
Father, surround this young man with one of our prayer blankets, thick and warm made from our hope and concern, along with your healing, mercy, protection, comfort, and love. Father, we do not know the nature of this young man's injuries, but we know you do. We hold vigil for this young man and all who have been injured in the line of duty.
Father, we call forth legions of your angels of protection to surround each and every helicopter, airplane, jet, train, SUV, Humvee, bus, donkey cart, and all conveyances used in any way to move our troops around. We call forth those same angels to overshadow all who are responsible for maintenance. Bring to the attention of those who are in those positions any and all flaws to be found in mechanical, metallurgical, electrical, hydraulic, or any other systems in these conveyances. Grant these maintenance crews all proper parts, tools, and efficient means to effect repairs in a safe and timely manner. We call forth the protection, particularly of aircraft, from the vulnerabilities they have to the sand found in the region. We call forth your intercession in situations where crashes or wrecks happen but the passengers are miraculously spared.
Father, let us stand with our troops in Spirit! Let us even go about your business while we sleep! If it is possible to do so, we ask that you will let us perform that scriptural admonition which states, "pray without ceasing!" We do pledge ourselves to holding the vigil for our young men and women under arms! Help us Father to fulfill that pledge according to your Will and the assignments you give each one of us individually.
Father surround the family and friends of this young marine fighting for his life. Surround the family and friends of all who are in a similar situation of need. We are grateful that the life of this young pilot has to our knowledge been spared....please grant that he can be fully healed! We are grateful for your ever present care and concern.
Amen
