Pray for a warrior or a veteran using God's Promises of Protection (#military #veteran #USMC #USA #USAF #USN #USCG)

( I am a Vietnam Marine veteran. While in Vietnam, I almost never saw a chaplain but wasn't really looking. I do remember seeing bits of scripture on many pieces of body armor, particularly from Psalm 23 and Psalm 91, "The Soldier's Psalm". Now, later in life, absolutely convinced about the awesome power of prayer as used in my health battles, I wish someone had been praying for all warriors and veterans during and after their military battles. Please do so now. You may also post an individual prayer at the bottom in the Comments section. - John)
