Our Father in Heaven, our hearts are deeply broken and our spirits weak as we mourn with the men and women of the McAllen Police Department in the on-duty murder of two officers. O’ Lord, there are times like this when we don’t know how to pray to You for the grief is so great. Nonetheless Lord, we know You know our hearts and hear our groans of pain at the loss of two of Your servant peacemakers. So Lord, we lift up the men and women of the McAllen Police Department before your Throne of Grace and ask for Your mercies and amazing grace to touch their hearts and souls with Your hands of loving kindness. May Your grace uphold those whose hearts are broken at the loss of two dear friends and colleagues. May Your mercies and amazing grace especially settle upon the families of these fallen officers. May they intimately sense Your presence around them at all times knowing that it is You who will be carrying them through this extremely difficult time of loss. As investigators are on the scene, grant them supernatural wisdom and insight to gather all of the facts surrounding this horrific scene. As the suspect has been shot and we do not know the details, may You grant the investigators wisdom throughout this investigation.  We thank You, Lord, Your Word clearly says that Your law enforcement officers do not carry their sword (or firearm) in vain as found in Romans 13. As we know this traumatic event has created great emotional trauma in the hearts of many law enforcement officers and their families, we ask for Your mercies and comfort to be poured out upon them and may You preserve their hearts and minds from enduring any long-term traumatic fallout. Grant grace to the many first responders, medics and others who responded to that horrific scene and were likely involved in life-saving efforts and treatment of all involved. And in the coming days as the difficult preparations will begin to be made to say farewell to their fallen comrades, may many law enforcement officers be drawn close to You where they may examine their hearts and reveal their need for a personal relationship with You Lord—our Forgiver and Savior. Grant hope and comfort in the hearts of those grieving ever so greatly. Wrap your Arms around every member of the New McAllen Police Department and carry them through difficult days ahead. May Your words bring comfort and wisdom to those in need, “Be strong and courageous. Do not be terrified; do not be discouraged, for the LORD your God will be with you wherever you go.” And, “Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.  And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.”   May many personally know Your love and receive You as their Savior and Friend, in the name of Jesus Christ we pray, Amen.
