Here is a collection of prayers that you can use to pray for our troops in the military. May God bless them and keep them safe!

Prayers for Our Troops

Some U.S. military bases have chapels for Christians. Here, soldiers can practice their faith similar to a regular church.

Before deployment, many Christian troops visit the chapel to pray and meet their spiritual needs. Here are some prayers for military troops:

-Dear Lord, we lift our troops in the military to you. They are risking their lives to protect us and our freedom, and we are so grateful. We ask that you would watch over them and keep them safe.

Please give them strength, courage, and wisdom as they serve. We also pray for their families who are waiting at home.

-Jesus, we know that you are the Prince of Peace. We pray for your peace to rule in the hearts of our troops. May they know your presence and peace amid battle.

We also pray for their families, that they would experience your peace and comfort during this time.

-Father God, we thank you for our troops in the military. We ask that you would bless them and their families. Please give them strength, courage, wisdom, and protection.

We also pray for those who are injured or sick. Please heal them and bring them home safely to their families. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

-Lord, we know that you are with our troops in the military. It’s hard to know what peace is during a raging war. Please take care of my son, he is very precious to me and I want him back this Christmas.

I also want to pray for the others who are serving with him. Please be with them and give them strength, courage, and hope. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

-Father, let there be peace in the enemy’s heart, so that our troops may come home. We know you can change anyone’s heart, no matter how set they are in their ways.

Please open the door for peace and bring an end to this war. You taught us to love our enemies, but sometimes it seems impossible to do so. Give us the strength to be calm in the eye of the storm and seek your wisdom.

A time to love and a time to hate, a time for war and a time for peace. (Ecclesiastes 3:8)

-Please Jesus, allow my husband to come back home safe from the military. He is serving our country and I am so proud of him. Please keep him safe from all harm and danger.

I love him so much and I miss him terribly. Please bring him home to me soon. His sons and daughters are always asking me when he’s coming back home. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

– Merciful God, my daughter finished boot camp in the military and is going to another country during war times. Please shine your light on her, and give her all the protection she needs to make it through her military years.

– Heavenly Father, I pray that our military leaders have strong faith in you and they use their wisdom to guide our troops to victory. Give them spiritual power to help them think with their hearts, not their guns.

It’s easier to pull the trigger than to shake someone’s hand and forgive their mistakes. Help bring this war to an end soon so my heart can be at peace, Amen.
