Our Merciful Lord, our hearts are broken again, O’ Lord, as we join with the Rayne Police Department in mourning the loss of one of their officers. We, therefore, come boldly into Your Presence, O’ Lord, to lift the men and women of the Rayne Police Department and place them before Your Throne of Grace. As we know this loss, likely caused by friendly fire, has deeply affected the Rayne Police Department emotionally and spiritually, we ask for Your Arms of Loving kindness to supernaturally uphold them as You carry them through this time of loss. As we know the family of this fallen officer is hurting ever so greatly and in deep mourning, we ask You to be their Rock, their Fortress and their Refuge right now and especially in the days ahead. May Your Peace that passes all understanding be supernaturally revealed to the entire Rayne Police Department and the many family members and friends of this fallen servant. As we know this tragedy will affect every officer emotionally, physically and spiritually, may Your grace, love and peace settle upon their minds, heart and spirit and draw them ever so close to Your Side. May You continue to comfort the men and women of the Rayne Police Department and sustain them with Your arms of loving kindness. May Your amazing grace and comfort additionally touch the many paramedics and other medical personnel who were involved in the life-saving efforts of this fallen peacemaker. As we know traumatic incidents like these can affect many, we ask Your Holy Spirit to settle upon the heart and mind anyone who has been traumatized and preserve their mind, body and spirit in Your Arms of Love. May they be kept from enduring any short-term or long-term emotional trauma. May anyone struggling emotionally or spiritually know Your word says, “He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty.” And, “I will say of the LORD, ‘He is my refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust.’” In the coming days as a final farewell service will be prepared for their fallen comrade, may You use this solemn ceremony to point anyone grieving unto the love of Your Son and may many examine their hearts and be drawn to the love of Jesus and receive His forgiveness and eternal life. And as a result of this near-tragedy, may You raise up Godly officers and chaplains to reach out and point many to the Cross, in the name of Jesus we pray, Amen
