Pray for our American Heroes
July 21, 2012 | Irish Rose

Posted on 07/21/2012 12:35:45 PM PDT by Irish Rose

This is what the LORD says—
your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel:
“I am the LORD your God,
who teaches you what is best for you,
who directs you in the way you should go.
If only you had paid attention to my commands,
your peace would have been like a river,
your righteousness like the waves of the sea.”
(Isaiah 48:17-18)


TOPICS: Religion & Culture
KEYWORDS: america; military; pray
Dear God, as we come to You in prayer, we thank You for everything You have given us.

Lord, we pray for those in our military who have been wounded. Encourage them, help them to endure, and provide for them anything they need.

Father, we ask You to send rain on our country, especially those parts suffering from drought or intense heat. You, Lord, give rain to the righteous and the unrighteous; please, then, send rain to us.

LORD, You are our God; You teach us what is best for us, and You direct us in the way we should go. You are our Redeemer, our Maker, and You know what You have made us for. If we will listen to Your commands, our peace will be like the river, our righteousness like the waves of the sea. You are our goodness, our happiness, our glory; give us grace to submit to You and walk in Your path—and we will find rest for our souls. We honor You, the Holy One of Israel, in the Name of Jesus Christ our risen Lord, Amen.

PRAYERS GOING UP FOR OUR AMERICAN HEROES AND FOR OUR BELOVED NATION!



GEN. GEORGE WASHINGTON AND THE MARQUIS DE LAFAYETTE AT VALLEY FORGE
"Let Tyrants Shake Their Iron Rod"

In the coldest and darkest days of the American Revolution, General George Washington raised his prayers for the survival of his beleaguered Army and of the new Nation. The Lord answered those prayers, upheld his Army through a punishing nadir to everlasting glory and bestowed His manifold benefits upon the new Nation.

In like manner, let our prayers now rise lie a fountain for our Heroes in the American Armed Forces who seek to secure the benefits of Freedom on behalf of a people hungry for them. Father, look on our prayers for them with favor, guide their steps in righteousness and keep them in the shelter of Your Healing Wings. Bless and uphold them in the performance of their Mission. Through Jesus Christ, Your Son, with the Holy Spirit, one God, forever and ever, Amen.




SHADOWS AT ARLINGTON
God Of Our Fathers, Whose Almighty Hand

Heavenly Father, Lord of the Nations, unto Your Divine Mercy we commend the souls of these brave men and women who have fallen in the service of our Beloved Nation and in defense of the Freedoms we hold dear. We pray that You gather them in Your loving embrace, that You cause Your countenance to shine upon them, and that You vouchsafe their souls to dwell eternally in Your Divine Presence. Through Jesus Christ Your Son, with the Holy Spirit, one God, forever and ever, Amen.







Genuflectimus non ad principem sed ad Principem Pacis!

Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)

Thank you for praying for our heroes and our nation. May God bless and guide all your prayers.

The prayer of a righteous man is powerful and effective.

Elijah was a man just like us. He prayed earnestly that it would not rain, and it did not rain on the land for three and a half years. Again he prayed, and the heavens gave rain, and the earth produced its crops. (James 5:16a-18)
