Dear Heavenly Father,
As we remember those who have
made the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom, we think of how they have followed
in the footsteps of your son, our Savior, Jesus Christ. Please hold our service
men and women in your strong arms. Cover them with your sheltering grace and
presence as they stand in the gap for our protection.
We also remember the families
of our troops, and ask for your unique blessings to fill their homes and your
peace, provision and strength to fill their lives.
May the members of our armed
forces be filled with courage to face each day and may they trust in the Lord's
mighty power to accomplish each task. Let our military brothers and sisters feel
our love and support.
In the name of Jesus. Amen
Sample:
Almighty God, kindle, we pray, in every heart the true love
of peace, and guide with Your wisdom those who take counsel for the nations of
the earth, that in tranquility Your dominion may increase until the earth is
filled with the knowledge of Your love; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives
and reigns with You, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever.
Amen.
Sample:
Lord God Almighty, You have made
all the peoples of the earth for Your glory, to serve You in freedom and in
peace. Give to the people of our country a zeal for justice and the strength of
forbearance, that we may use our liberty in accordance Your gracious will;
through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
Sample:
Dear Father God,
In the stillness of our hearts we call on you who created
us and who sustains us. You call us to live in peace and we ask that you will
hear our prayers.
Hear our prayer for all who have died, whose hearts and
hopes are known to you alone.
Hear our prayer for those who put the welfare of others
ahead of their own and give us hearts as generous as theirs.
Hear our prayer for those who gave their lives in the
service of others, and accept the gift of their sacrifice.
Help us to shape and make a world where we will lay down
the arms of war and turn our swords into ploughshares for a harvest of justice
and peace.
Comfort those who grieve the loss of their loved ones and
let your healing be the hope in our hearts.
We ask that you hear our prayers this day Lord and we look
for your answer. In the Holy name of Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen
