From Psalm 112, we take our prayer for our military and our Nation today. We call Blessed those among us who fear the LORD, who find great delight in his commands. Our children will be mighty in the land; the generation of the upright will be blessed. Wealth and riches are in our houses, and our righteousness endures forever. Even in darkness light dawns for each one who has been made upright by the shed blood of Jesus. Because Your love is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Spirit, lead each of us to be gracious and compassionate and righteous. Our brethren among the military and those in authority will never be shaken; they will be remembered forever.
As Your children, we confess that we will have no fear of bad news; because our hearts are steadfast, trusting in the LORD. Our hearts are secure, we will have no fear. In the end each military man and woman and each leader who stands for Your ways of doing and being right will look in triumph on their foes. They will be lifted high in honor. The wicked will see and be vexed, they will gnash their teeth and waste away; the longings of the wicked will come to nothing.
Amen.

John Quincy Adams - SIXTH PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES; DIPLOMAT; SECRETARY OF STATE; CONGRESSMAN"The hope of a Christian is inseparable from his faith. Whoever believes in the Divine inspiration of the Holy Scriptures must hope that the religion of Jesus shall prevail throughout the earth. Never since the foundation of the world have the prospects of mankind been more encouraging to that hope than they appear to be at the present time. And may the associated distribution of the Bible proceed and prosper till the Lord shall have made bare His holy arm in the eyes of all the nations, and all the ends of the earth shall see the salvation of our God [Isaiah 52:10].
