Prayer for May 29th’ 2023

HaPpy Memorial Day, God —thank you!!

I often think of those who courageously laid down their lives to fight for our freedom, especially today. May their example, along with the sacrifice of your son Jesus Christ, our Lord & Savior, inspire me to put others before myself —to be courageous enough to lay down my life for a friend. Please bless the families of all fallen troops. Fill their homes and love and peace in Jesus. For as in Adam, we all die, so also in Christ shall we all be made alive! In Jesus’ name. Amen.

John 15:13

13 Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.

Thou therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ.

1 Corinthians 15:22

22 For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive.

Psalm 144:1

144 Blessed be the Lord my strength which teacheth my hands to war, and my fingers to fight:

Ephesians 6:11

11 Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
