10 Prayer Points
[ below is a link to print this page as a handy prayer guide to take with you ]
1. Pray for their Physical Safety: The dangers our law enforcement faces are immense.
It is a daily challenge in a society today that is filled with violence, greed and hate.
2. Pray for their Emotional Safety: The mental, physical and emotional aspects
are always on high alert. There is a combination of stress and anxiety always at
work which can impact the mind in many ways.
3. Pray for their Families: The families of our law enforcement personnel are always
affected due to the pressures they face on a daily basis. Divorce can be a result and
forms of escapism which are counter productive to the mind, body, spirit and soul.
4. Pray for Wisdom: Our police must learn to make choices in spontaneous situations
that continually arise that are filled with wisdom that will bring forth the greatest good.
Wisdom is right use and exercise of knowledge; quickness of intellect; readiness of
apprehension; and a dexterity in execution.
5. Pray for Understanding: The situations faced are very complex when dealing with
human nature. Understanding is an exact comprehension by the human mind
regarding the state of things, situations, words that are spoken, that are before an
individual.
6. Pray they would have Compassion for the People We Serve: They are dealing with
lives and souls that will face God some day. May they have a heart like Jesus Christ
had and feel what an individual may be going through at the time and respond
accordingly. May hearts never become hardened! It is very easy to become bitter and
unforgiving when evil is encountered so often on a daily basis. Compassion is painful
sympathy; suffering with another; pity; and distress of the misfortunes of another.
7. Pray they come to know Jesus Christ as a Personal Savior: This is the greatest
need of all as salvation is the pathway to resolve all individual problems that may arise.
8. Pray for their Finances: We all face financial pressures. Our police personnel are no
Different so lift them up in this area of need.
9. Pray for their Health: The job stress in law enforcement can bring on physiological
changes in the body which in turn can affect the physical health of the body.
10. Pray they would Exhibit Integrity, Honesty and Dedication: A virtuous
individual is to be highly regarded and respected. Temptations can present situations
for any person to fail at some time. May they have spiritual fortitude and strength to
be honest, dedicated and individuals of integrity.
