Our Merciful Lord, we join with the Mannheim Police Department as their hearts are broken and spirits weak at the on-duty stabbing/murder of one of their officers. The law enforcement community across America joins with the German Law enforcement community seeking Your Amazing Grace upon the men and women of the Mannheim Police Department as they are mourning this tragic loss of one of their colleagues. O’ God, Your word says, “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, as the hearts and spirits of so many are totally devastated at this senseless loss, we come boldly before Your Throne of grace to seek Your comfort, peace, strength and love to carry those hurting through this extremely emotional time. May You grant the investigators wisdom as they investigate this crime in which the suspect has been wounded. As we know it is ONLY Your word and Your Presence that can carry us through difficult days ahead, may Your word encourage many as follows, “God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble.” ; “But You, O Lord, are a shield for me, My glory and the One who lifts up my head. I cried to the Lord with my voice, And He heard me from His holy hill.” And, “As for God, his way is perfect; the word of the LORD is flawless. He is a shield for all who take refuge in him.” So, Lord, may Your Words permeate the heart of every member of the Mannheim Police Department. Grant their investigators supernatural strength to gather the facts from this heinous attack on one of Your peacemaker-servants. May this fallen officer’s family especially know Your peace that passes all understanding as You carry them through this time of mourning and grieving. May they intimately know Your love, grace, peace, mercy comfort and Presence. In the coming days as the Mannheim Police Department will be challenged to prepare a final farewell to their fallen comrade, may You raise up Godly officers, chaplains and others to be a representative of Your Son to all. May You use this final farewell to point many law enforcement officers unto the love of Your Son and may many have an opportunity to receive Him as their Savior and Lord. May Your amazing grace settle upon the hearts of those greatly grieving and mourning, in the name of Jesus Christ we pray, Amen.
