INTERCESSION
Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamour, and evil speaking, be put away from you, w’ith all malice: and be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted. forgiving one another, even as God for Christ’s sake hath forgiven you.—Ephesians iv, 31-32.
ETERNAL GOD. as wicked men use evil weapons to achieve unworthy ends, grant grace to those who defend the cause of right, that they may ever maintain honour unsullied and truth untarnished. Keep alive within us awareness of the spiritual conflict behind the noise of battle so that our love of king and country may be born of a still greater love of freedom, justice, truth and charity. Strengthen our prayer for victory by the conviction of a pure conscience responsive to Thy will.
