Pray for our American Heroes
April 27, 2013 | Irish Rose

Can plunder be taken from warriors,
or captives rescued from the fierce?

But this is what the LORD says:

“Yes, captives will be taken from warriors,
and plunder retrieved from the fierce;
I will contend with those who contend with you,
and your children I will save.
I will make your oppressors eat their own flesh;
they will be drunk on their own blood, as with wine.
Then all mankind will know
that I, the LORD, am your Savior,
your Redeemer, the Mighty One of Jacob.”
(Isaiah 49:24-26)

Father in heaven, we thank You for Your provision that shines on us in the sunlight and falls on us in the rain.

Lord, we pray for those in our military, that You would guard them in both body and soul. We ask You to show all of them mercy, in all that concerns them.

Lord, as the Gosnell trial reminds us of all the cruelties our nation permits in the name of choice, we pray for the end of abortion in America. Make the truth of this matter plain to everyone.

Father, Your people have often faced oppressors and enemies, strong and fierce; yet You have said to us that captives will be taken from warriors, and plunder retrieved from the fierce, for You will contend with those who contend with us, and You will save the children of Your servants. You – the LORD, the Mighty One of Jacob – are our Savior, our Redeemer. You are our God, who gives life to the dead and calls things that are not as though they were. What is impossible with us is possible with You, for Your weakness is stronger than our strength and Your folly is wiser than our wisdom. We put our hope in You, in the Name of Jesus Christ who has loved us, Amen.

PRAYERS ASCENDING ON HIGH FOR OUR AMERICAN HEROES AND FOR OUR BELOVED NATION!



GEN. GEORGE WASHINGTON
THE PRAYER AT VALLEY FORGE

"Let Tyrants Shake Their Iron Rod"
William Billings
Mixed District Choir, Fairfax, Virginia

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 like 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 envelop 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)
