The sacred prayer of a soldier

Our soldiers have gone into the field of battle. But, would they really return home alive?

 Rather than ponder over this thought, you can support them by prayers. Most of the time, these brave soldiers are within enemy range. You can do something – something valuable…You can intercede on their behalf and that is the more reason that these words should be spoken for them or spoken for themselves…the sacred prayer of a soldier…

3. The sacred prayer of a soldier

Lord here I stand

designed as for war

though not at my desire

but as a defender

of my sovereignty.

Gird me in full armor

and strengthen my spirit.

Let the enemies spear

never find my heart

nor his blade

thrust through my loins,

let the battle be swift

and our losses insignificant,

and let me return home

to find my family in peace.

Poverty is perceived in some quarters as being as terrible as a loathsome disease. In fact it is dreaded and should never be seen as a way of life. While the rich see poor people ass lazy and indolent, the just have a different view. One is only poor if one chooses to be…but that too is not the whole truth. You can spend a millennium declaring that you are rich and yet remain a church rat. It is time you disposed of any procrastination or heaping blame on others for your state of penury. Do something now. Cry out!

Cry out, cry out!

Pray these words with all your heart…and be delivered from the shackles of poverty. Pray these words and be free from that loathsome state that has left you a vagabond, a wretch. Here is your answer on a platter of gold…the deliverance from poverty

4. Deliverance from poverty

For how long oh lord

shall I remain in penury?

How long

before my soul finds relief?

I toil day and night

yet find no gainful task

even the works of my hands

provide me not a morsel of food

my compatriots

in whom I surpass in every detail

thrive in abundance.

I have become jest

to neighbors

while passers by

sneer at me

temptation boils within me

and unguarded thoughts

race through my mind

but I have chosen to remain straight

and to adhere to thy words.

Look upon me oh lord

and be merciful unto me

for my bones are weak.

I will not be moved into wrong deeds,

that I trespass not against thee

However oh lord,

deliver my blessings unto me

and remove this cloak of misery

from off me.

I will wait patiently oh lord

but I pray thee,

do not abandon me to this fate.
