Our Father in Heaven, We come into Your Presence Lord to lift up this wounded Newark officer and place him into Your loving care.  We are thankful that his life was spared and that his wounds were not considered life threatening.  Nonetheless Lord, we ask you to guide the hands of the doctors to render the correct medical care and restore him to complete health.  May Your grace especially touch the family of this wounded officer and draw them ever so close to Your side.  As we know life-threatening encounters like this can affect co-workers just as much as the injured officer, we ask for your grace, peace, mercies and comfort to settle upon every law enforcement officer who was involved in that incident and may they experience your amazing presence in their hearts. May every officer be drawn to You where they can experience Your abundant peace.  And for this injured officer and those co-workers who may have been very deeply affected emotionally, may they intimately know they can always cast theirs cares upon you for we know You care for them.  May you prevent any of them from experiencing any long-term emotional trauma.  We also lift up the wounded suspect and ask You to reveal Your love to him and draw him into Your Arms of Love.  May Your grace touch the hearts and minds of the families of every law enforcement officer who was involved in this dangerous incident and may Your love reign supreme.  May the suspect and many others come to know You as their Savior and Lord by receiving Your forgiveness and mercies.  May they know that now is the day of salvation.  May Your Holy Spirit touch many lives, this we ask in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.
