Our Merciful and Loving Lord, our hearts are broken as we join with the men and women of the Las Cruces Police Department in mourning the loss of Officer Jonah Hernandez. We therefore come boldly into Your Presence to lift the men and women of the Las Cruces Police Department and place them before Your Throne of Grace. As we know this loss has deeply affected them and the entire local law enforcement community, 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 Officer Hernandez is in deep mourning, we ask You to be their Rock, their Fortress and their Refuge right now and in the days ahead. May Your Peace that passes all understanding be supernaturally revealed to the Las Cruces Police Department and the many family members and friends. As the details surrounding this shooting is minimal, we are thankful the suspect is no longer a threat thanks to a citizen. May the comfort and presence of Your Holy Spirit settle upon the men and women of the Las Cruces Police Department and sustain them with Your arms of loving kindness. As we know traumatic incidents like these can affect the lives of 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 the men and women of the Las Cruces Police Department begin to prepare a final farewell for their fallen comrade, may You use this solemn ceremony to point anyone grieving unto the love of Your Son. May many examine their hearts and be drawn to the love of Jesus and receive his forgiveness and eternal life. May You bring about good from this loss. And as a result of this tragedy, may You raise up Godly officers and chaplains to reach out and point many to the Cross of Christ, in the name of Jesus we pray, Amen.
