Reflections for Deputy Sheriff John Randall McCrary
Heavenly Father,I come before you today grieved in heart over the divisions in our country, the United States of America. I grieve for every life lost to violence, regardless of color or creed. And I especially grieve this day over the senseless deaths of America's Peace Officers whose sworn duty is to protect us from harm. Please grant comfort and hope to their families. I know from Romans 13:1-5 TLB that they have a sacred task, to enforce laws that protect the innocent and punish the guilty. I pray that You will protect them as they serve us. Give them wisdom, discernment, and a deep desire to serve You. Please surround America's Peace Officers in our nation, the United States of America, with battalions of warring angels to protect them from harm. I stand together in the powerful and mighty name of the Lord Jesus Christ against every work of Satan intended to inflict injury and death on our protectors. May his power be thwarted, in Your mighty and holy Name, and his plans exposed by Your light. By His authority, I pray. Amen.
