What do Marines do best? B.S. about the Corps, Country and liberty. We hear little about God. That talk little about God falls short in my book.
Faith, courage, and prayer birthed our great nation and guided America through more than 200 years of wars, natural disasters and national crisis.
Prayer is a freedom guaranteed to us by our Constitution, and a God-given right to all humanity. The opportunity to pray is a privilege, honor and sacred duty.
History has proven that forces will wage war against our freedom. Terrorism has shed blood on American soil. Violent crime has invaded American homes and schools. Drugs and alcohol abuse rage aginst the innocence of youth. Forces of darkness threaten our morality, integrity and faith. Prayer for our nation is our defense.
Now is the time to be resolute in our defiance against the forces of destruction, to unite as a nation and not succumb to fear. Americans must stand strong and remain bold in faith, courage and prayers.
The nations needs our prayers. The President, his advisors, congress, and all local and national leaders need our prayers. The armed forces, firefighters and law enforcement personnel need your prayers.
Make a commitment to pray daily for our nation. Our heavenly Father is listening. He loves us and this nation.
If my people, which are called by my
name, shall humble themselves, and pray,
and seek my face, and turn from their
wicked ways; then will I hear from
heaven, and will forgive their sin, and
will heal their land.
2 Chronicles 7:14
THE MILITARY
Thank you Lord, for the men and women of our armed forces. Protect them as they protect us. Defend them as they defend us. Encourage and strengthen their spirit, soul, and body in the execution of their duties and responsibilities. May they be mentally and physically strong when required to face the challenges of combat. Under gird them with your spirit and might when they are called upon to endure the hardships of battle.
I pray that nothing would take them by surprise but that they would be aware of all potential aggression. Enable them to curtail hostile actions before they start.
Reveal to military leaders the strategies and plots that enemies would wage. Give leaders wisdom and insight in all decisions. May response to any aggression by enemies of this nation be swift, accurate and effective.
Father, give our military favor with the governmental agencies of this country. I pray that our Congress would appropriate sufficient funds to keep our nation's military preeminent in the world.
Thank you Lord, for providing America with the best trained, equipped and lead military force in the world today. Fill them with Your saving grace and the gospel of peace that they may be shining witnesses of Your love.
Amen
