Warrior Prayers

Here are the excerpts from The Last Kingdom series:

Heavenly Father, receive Your servant Uhtred into the holy kind of saints and into the ranks of the most bright angels. Let Your holy waters cleanse him and make him worthy of Your blessing. Make him Your instrument and Your rod. Let him realize the significance of the written word so that he may learn of Your glory and, in turn, may spread Your word. Let him grow in wisdom and in respect, so he may lead in a godly manner…Amen

Welcome to the Christian world.

Dear God of infinite mercy, not this! Lift up Your sword and spare these men of England who fight in Your name. Let the heathens’ hearts crumble and wither. Restore Your power upon these men of England, so they can glorify Your name with the blood of the devils. Have mercy now, lord. Do not forsake us, do not forsake England.

For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war according to the flesh. For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds, casting down arguments and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ,~2 Corinthians 10:3-5
