Praying for US Army Sgt. Jose Rodriquez of Gustine, CA – 6/22/2012



Prayer request from His Message for You Ministry for another of our Heroes, Sgt. Jose Rodriguez, 22, of Gustine, CA, who died June 19 in Kandahar province, Afghanistan, of wounds suffered from enemy small arms fire.

Sgt. Rodriquez was assigned to the 4th Battalion, 23rd Infantry Regiment, 2nd Stryker Brigade Combat Team, 2nd Infantry Division, Joint Base Lewis-McChord, Wash.


We pray together now with broken hearts, but in complete and total faith, with all of our strength, passion, love and Hope for Sgt. Rodriquez, his family and all those who stand in harms way to protect us.

Father, we have faith Your will shall be done on earth as it is in Heaven. We know Your plan is always for good. We pray You will bless the family and friends of Sgt. Jose Rodriquez, a courageous and valiant Soldier, with the understanding and comfort only Your Holy Spirit can provide. We know You have welcomed him Home with open arms.

We pray in faith in Your Word:

Ephesians 1:9-11 “God has now revealed to us His mysterious plan regarding Christ, a plan to fulfill His own good pleasure. And this is the plan: At the right time He will bring everything together under the authority of Christ — everything in Heaven and on earth. Furthermore, because we are united with Christ, we have received an inheritance from God, for he chose us in advance, and he makes everything workout according to his plan.”

John 15:13 Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends.

"Welcome Home Jose, My good and humble servant"

1 Corinthians 15:51-57 “Behold, I show you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye…we shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed… and this mortal shall have put on immortality… thanks be to God, which giveth us this victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.”


We praise You and thank You Lord that Your blessing of redemption and victory for US Army Sgt. Jose Rodriquez is a blessing You graciously give for all of us!

In Your Name God our Father, Christ and Lord Jesus and Holy Spirit we pray, Amen

Author of The Meaning of Life, Living Hope, Understanding Changes, I Can Choose Myself -- Most of us are always pursuing the best for ourselves, our families and our “Life”. We sometimes think about and even consider the “religious” way of life, but are challenged by the seemingly odd or rigorous traditions, fanciness, reactionary and emotional behaviors we see going on in church, on television and even from folks standing on the corner or knocking on our doors. In today’s world of technology and information, we can easily educate ourselves and make our own decisions. Which we enjoy, and we should! If you are thinking about how religion, or in an easier term to understand, a spiritual life can help you, start with the simplest (and absolutely most important) information. His Message for You is here and ready for you now!!!!!
