Commemorating Memorial Day

Faith and Life· History

29 May

I know this is late, but with Monday being Memorial Day, I wanted to post something that commemorates this day. Therefore, I present to you my Memorial Day prayer. 🙂

Dear Heavenly Father,

You have blessed each and everyone of us by placing us in America to live. You have given us the ability and freedom to enjoy our rights, more so than any other county, and, Father, you did it through our veterans, the brave men and women who died fighting to protect these God-given rights. Help us to never forget the sacrifices they made, the cruelties they witnessed or the reasons they gave all in the Revolutionary War, the War of 1812, the Civil War, World War One and World War Two, The Cold War and many others. Thank you for these men and women. Please don’t let their sacrifices be forgotten, and, Father, please help their sacrifices to point us to the sacrifice of your Son on the cross so that we can come to you and be spiritually liberated. Thank you, Father!

Lord, we also want to pray four our country’s leaders, President Trump, our Congressmen and our judges. We thank you that President Trump has brought many Christians into high level positions in our government. Please use them as a means to bring our leaders to you. Father, we also ask that you give our leaders wisdom. Help them to make godly decisions and fight against ungodly things. Father, we also pray for our Governor, Jay Robert Pritzker. Please help him to come to you and be saved by Jesus Christ our Lord. Father, we pray this for all our Illinois lawmakers; we recognize that we all need You!

Also, Father, please give them wisdom on how to reopen our state and to make godly decisions. We ask especially that they see that churches are essential, and allow us to reopen so that we can gather to worship with other believers like You have asked us to. Help us to be bold enough to gather safely in a manner that honors You even if the government still says we cannot.

Father, I also want to pray for the American people. May the people of this land You created turn their hearts to You and see their need for a Savior.  May we as nation call out to Jesus and accept His sacrifice on the cross.

Help us as citizens to vote for leaders that will make godly decisions so that You will become the center of this country.

Father, please help us as Christians to be a light for You in dark places. Give us the boldness to share Your Word with those who are hurting.

We love You, Father.

Once again we want to thank You for the brave men and women who fought and sacrificed their lives to keep this country free.

In the most precious and holy name of Jesus we pray,

Amen.
