Heavenly Father, we thank You once again for the gift of life. Father, we thank
You that we are privileged to know You, and that You have given us the charge to
bring Your gospel to the uttermost parts of the earth. Father, we thank You that
You have placed us in a nation that believes in freedom and where we can freely
preach the gospel. Father, we lift up our military forces all over the world… Those
who are standing for truth and for what is right. Those who are standing for
freedom, and those who are standing for the dignity of mankind, knowing that we
should treat others as we desire for them to treat us.
Father in heaven, we cover all of our military from the highest to the lowest rank.
We lift each of them up to You, God, and cover them with the blood of Jesus. We
pray that You will strengthen them with might in their spirit man. We pray that
they will sense Your presence with them and will operate in wisdom and
discernment. Father, direct their steps and let no force of the enemy catch them
unaware. We pray that even before every plot and every trap the enemy could set,
You would give them a word of knowledge and a word of wisdom. Guide them to
apprehend the forces and not allow them to manifest any wicked device.
Lord God, we pray there would be a spirit of unity within our military, a sense of
honor, and a sense of justice and judgment. We pray for those in authority that You
will help them to set the right example.
We pray for the nations in which we have a military presence that You would bless
the people. We pray for those who are walking in darkness that You would reveal
Yourself as a God of love, a God of strength, and that You’re the God who loves
all. Father, we thank You that Your tender mercies are over all. Manifest your
love, Your deliverance, and Your healing. You said of the increase of Your
government, there shall be no end. So, we pray that the government of God will
increase even to the uttermost parts of the earth.
Father in heaven, we pray You will bless the households, who are waiting and
praying for their loved ones. Help them to be strong. Help them not to waver. Lord
God, for all these things, we give You thanks and praise, in the precious Name of
Jesus, Amen
