Veterans Day Prayer
November 11, 2015 by John Potter
Almighty God, I give you thanks for veterans. I give thanks that there are men and women willing to leave families, farms, and factories to sacrifice for a nation. They demonstrate right with blood, sweat, and tears.
The Bible shows warriors like Gideon and David who were unsure of your calling, but stepped forward in faith to protect others in danger. We still have warriors like this today. People who will step forward in uncertain times to protect the ones they love and a nation they cherish so deeply.
For these men and women, I give you thanks. Bless their efforts when in conflict. Protect them in the heat of battle. Heal their wounds of war, both inside and out. Bind their families together and strengthen their faith in you. I ask these things in the name of our risen Savior. Amen.
