Reflections for Police Officer Garrett Crumby
Heavenly Father, I come before You today grieved in heart over the divisions in our country; the United States of America. I grieve for every life lost to violence, regardless of color or creed. And I especially grieve this day over the senseless deaths of America’s Peace Officers whose sworn duty is to protect us from harm. Please grant comfort and hope to their families. I know from the Holy Scriptures in Romans 13 that Peace Officers have a sacred task, to enforce laws that protect the innocent and punish the guilty. I pray that You will protect them as they serve us. Give them wisdom, discernment, and a deep desire to serve You. Please surround every Peace Officer in our nation, the United States of America, with battalions of warring angels to protect them from harm. We stand together in the powerful and mighty name of the Lord Jesus Christ against every work of Satan intended to inflict injury and death on our Protectors. May Satan’s power be thwarted, in Your mighty and holy name, and his plans exposed by Your Light. Lord Jesus, I know that Your word teaches us that in You there is neither Jew nor Greek, neither slave nor free, neither male nor female. All superficial distinctions between us have been abolished by Your sacrifice on the cross. By Your grace and power, lead us into a new day of racial harmony in our country, a day in which Your name is again lifted high in our nation, the United States of America, and the rule of law is honored by all. Please grant us spiritual, political, and cultural leaders who will speak to us with Your wisdom and Your truth. Please renew us in heart, mind, and spirit that we may once again be “One Nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all”. In the mighty and holy name of the Lord Jesus Christ, my Savior, my Redeemer, and the Mediator between me and you, Heavenly Father, in prayer, I pray! Amen.
"And I heard the voice of the Lord saying, “Whom shall I send, and who will go for us?” Then I said, “Here I am! Send me.” [Isaiah 6:8 ESV]
“Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons [children] of God.” [Matthew 5:9 ESV]

Honorable & Brave OFFICER GARRETT CRUMBY
Thank You for Your Guardian Service on this Earth , All of Heavens Angels Ministered to Your Wounded Body and Gently Guided You as you Slipped Thru the Bonds of Earth to Touch the Face Of GOD.
We are Greatly & Reverently Honored as Americans
to have such Fiercely Brave individuals do the job of a Police Officer. Losing a life does not create a hero, being willing to put a badge on and defend us already has. Rest Sweetly as ALMIGHTY YESHUA Embraces You in His Loving Arms and Commands His Angel Armies to Comfort and Abundantly Bless Your Family & Friends and All Sisters & Brothers in Blue.
May ALMIGHTY YESHUA Always Bless and Protect the Thin Blue Line that protects us ALL
