You are the Great Physician, We lift up our nation’s veterans into Your care—those who have borne the weight of duty and sacrifice. Grant wisdom and compassion to those who lead, that they may provide the resources, staffing, and support needed to honor these men and women with dignity. Strengthen the hands of caregivers, guide the decisions of leaders, and ensure that no veteran is forgotten or left without the care they deserve. May our gratitude be shown not only in words, but in faithful action. Lord, we especially pray for those veterans who feel overwhelmed by darkness, who carry unseen wounds, and who believe that suicide is their only escape. Surround them with Your presence, bring light into their despair, and place caring people in their path who will listen, help, and stand beside them. Restore hope where it has been lost, and remind them that their lives are precious, their service is honored, and they are never alone. In Your mercy and justice, we pray.
“So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.” Isaiah 41:10
“With malice toward none, with charity for all, with firmness in the right as God gives us to see the right, let us strive on to finish the work we are in, to bind up the nation’s wounds, to care for him who shall have borne the battle and for his widow, and his orphan, to do all which may achieve and cherish a just and lasting peace among ourselves and with all nations.” – Abraham Lincoln

Operation World Pray for India : Chhattisgarh and Jharkhand both have minerals, forests, and good farm land. But the people are largely poor and under-educated. Rebel groups are very active in the forest and jungle regions, and violent conflict (which can include persecution of Christians) causes problems. The Christian Church remains small here, but house churches have begun to spread. Chhattisgarh is known as “Home of the Tribals”. Pray that the light of the gospel shines into every tribal group, in both states.
