A prayer should never be for our darkest of times but a continual prayer for all times.

In this time we pray...

Dear God in Heaven, you know our need, you know our hearts. Our nation, our country seeks you and your Heavenly Host for wisdom and guidance, for strength and protection; most of all for salvation from the Evil One and the schemes of his agents. All of us are shocked and disturbed by the events that took place today. The sights and sounds still echo. The loss of a dear brother in Christ has caused many grief. We pray for your hand of mercy and grace, we pray for your arms of love and consolation. We are weak but you are strong. We seek your wisdom and discernment, we seek understanding of where to go beyond this point. There are those who who will not seek you and will not be guided by you and they seek out to harming others. We pray that your holy hand of protection be upon us all. We also pray for you your other hand of defense be against those evil agents. We pray for the Holy Spirit to be about and around us and the agents of evil. Give our nation mental, emotional, spiritual peace. Lord, we pray for the Kirk family, their friends, his colleagues. Wrap your arms of love around them. Hold the mother and two children close. Rock them in your arms of peace forever.

We pray all of this in your holy son's name, Yeshua Jesus Christ. Amen.
