Our Father in Heaven, as there is another attack on one of Your Peacemakers, this is just one more indication how valuable they are on the front lines protecting and serving their communities. And as a result, we need to be in prayer seeking Your Protecting Hand in everything Your peacemakers do. Once again Lord, we are so thankful to You for sparing the life of this Chicago Police Officer. As the news reports this officer is recovering at a local hospital from a gunshot wound to the knee, we ask You to continue to grant the medical staff wisdom to apply the correct treatment and bring about a full recovery. As the family of this officer is at his/her side, may Your Presence and grace be made known to their hearts and minds as You carry them through this near-death encounter. May they intimately know Your love and unending mercies. We also want to lift the officers who were present when this shooting occurred before Your Throne of Grace. May they deeply sense Your Hands of mercy and Your Presence carrying them through this attack of a co-worker. As the suspect is on the loose, may You grant the investigators wisdom to locate and arrest this suspect. May You prevent any further attacks on any more pace officers. And as we know the officers at that scene can have short-term and long-term emotional and spiritual trauma, we therefore seek an abundance of Your grace to be poured upon them to allow them to heal. As this near-death encounter has affected the entire Chicago Police Department, may every member be encouraged by Your Word as follows, “Be strong and of good courage; do not be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the LORD your God is with you wherever you go.” Lord, may You use this near-death encounter to cause many officers to examine their hearts. If any have strayed from Your path, may You use this to draw them back unto the love of Your Son. And if any officer does not know You, may You cause them to seek You with all of their heart, soul, mind and strength.
