A Prayer Of Thanks For Veterans

Father, we give thanks for our veterans who have served in the military seeking to defend our freedoms and serve their country. Far too many gave their all and did not return to their home shore alive. We are also thankful for the many spiritual veterans who have served us. While military forces defend our rights with the latest military gear and technique, spiritual veterans do battle for us in the spiritual realm. They know our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. We’re grateful for their dedication and for the sacrifice they made on our behalf. Amen.
