Thank You Lord God for the cloud of witnesses that have come before us! Thank You for calling great men and women to You, for empowering them, for speaking through them. Thank You for the millions You have saved through them.
And Lord we pray for more. As America flails around in the slime of complacency, we need men and women of dedication, of passion, of commitment. Raise us up, Lord, make us harvesters.
"...He sent them out two by two ahead of Him to every town and place where he was about to go. He told them, 'The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few. Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into His harvest field." --Luke 10:1-2
Send us to where You are coming. As military Christians, remind of us of our mission no matter where You place us. Open our eyes and hearts to the harvest. Open our mouths with Your words without fear--of rejection or embarrassment or of messing it up.
"Heal the sick who are there and tell them, 'The kingdom of God has come near to you."--Luke 10:9
Lord help us to believe big, to pray big...because this world is very sick and needs some big healing, as only You can do.
We pray for the heart-wounded warrior. Lord use us to wrap them in Your arms. Don't let the enemy speak to them. Calm their nerves, quiet their dreams. God only You can take away their shame, can grant them the forgiveness and the shelter they are dying for. Please do that Lord.
We pray for our wounded warriors. Let the bones You have broken make them rely on You.
We pray for our deployed. Only You can be their true fortress.
We pray for the families of the fallen. Lord grant them the peace that passes all understanding.
And we pray for Your workers:
For the Christian soldiers making the mundane holy day after day. May their witness be loud and clear, even when unspoken.
For the chaplains and the chapels. Lord may they be alive! Lord, may there be unity.
For the PWOCs and youth groups. May they be contagious!
For our leaders, the ones going before us. We pray for the Chief of Chaplain's office: for Ch Hurley, Ch Solhjem and his wife Jill, and the others working in the office.
For all of us--the prayer warriors. May we see the need and the outcome of our prayers.
And Lord we pray for the many among us who continue to struggle with health. You know our fraility Lord. Help us.
A God who loves us enough to use us--inspite of our fallibility--wow! Lord make us worthy. Deepen our love for You today.
Amen.
