A SOLDIERS PRAYER
Brave warriors,
should fate find us in battle,
May our cause be just.
May our leaders have clear vision.
May our courage not falter.
May we be triumphant an earn victory
as we show mercy to our enemies.
May our efforts bring lasting peace.
May our sacrifice be always
appreciated by those we serve.
May we return to our loved ones unharmed.
Should we be harmed, may our wounds heal.
Should we perish in the struggle,
may God embrace us and find for us
a place in His Kingdom.
Prayers for God’s blessings on them and to bring others home safe.
Joining in with prayers up for “Darkhorse” 3rd Battalion 5th Marines and their families.
9 Because you have made the LORD, who is my refuge,
Even the Most High, your dwelling place,
10 No evil shall befall you,
Nor shall any plague come near your dwelling;
11 For He shall give His angels charge over you,
To keep you in all your ways.
12 In their hands they shall bear you up,
Lest you dash your foot against a stone.
13 You shall tread upon the lion and the cobra,
The young lion and the serpent you shall trample underfoot.
Lord, we seek the protection of Psalm 91 over all those who serve in the cause of liberty and freedom. Look with favor on the 3rd Battalion, 5th Marines. Comfort the families of those who have fallen and encourage those who continue the fight. We praise You for the coming day when the weapons of war will be no more.
In the Name of Jesus, we pray for that day ... Amen ...

Greater love has no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends. (John 15:13)
From ‘What Grace Is Mine’:
So I will go wherever He is calling me
I lose my life to find my life in Him
I give my all to gain the hope that never dies
I bow my heart, take up my cross and follow Him
What grace is mine to know His breath alive in me
Beneath his wings my wakened soul may soar
All fear can flee for death’s dark night is overcome
My Saviour lives and reigns forevermore

Apologies to the FReepers. I just received it in email today and don’t recall having seen it. How did you locate it? Keywords?
(Prayers for our military are a good idea any time. Not to excuse my blunder, though.)
Prayers for our military, at all times. Our God is not limited by time or space.
Our fine troops are in my daily prayers.
BUMP.
