Our Merciful Lord, once again, it is Your amazing grace we see in action as You continue to protect Your peacemakers across America. Thank you for answering our prayer, “Keep me safe, O God, for in you I take refuge. I have set the LORD always before me. Because he is at my right hand, I will not be shaken.” As the news reports indicate a Springville Police Officer was shot and has since been treated and released, we know it could have been much more serious had it not been because of Your amazing grace. Lord, we, therefore, lift up this wounded officer and ask You to pour out Your love and grace on his heart and mind as he comes to grips with this near-death encounter. May Your love grace, mercy, comfort and unending love settle upon his heart and mind and draw him ever so close to Your side. May you especially be with his family as they come to grips with this near-tragedy. Most importantly, Lord, we ask You to pour out an extra measure of Your grace upon the men and women of the Springville Police Department as they, too, come to grips with this attempted murder upon one of their colleagues. May Your peace that passes all understanding be with the other officer who was at that scene and sustain him with Your Amazing Grace and he had to use deadly force. May You fill the investigators with supernatural wisdom as they piece together the details of this near-death encounter in which the suspect died. Lastly, Lord, may Your angels encamp around every member of the Springville Police Department and keep them safe from all harm and danger. May You draw this wounded officer ever so close to Your side and if he does not know You, may You raise up chaplains or other Godly officers to share the Love of Your Son with him and may he know that Your word tells us that, “Now is the day of salvation”, and “Be strong and of good courage; do not be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.” May Your protecting hand continue to be upon every law enforcement officer across America. This we ask in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.
