This is a list of scriptures I have been compiling to pray over Jared as he is deployed. Of course, I also pray it for his friends and those who are deployed in his unit with him. Thought some of you might like to use them as well. I will continue to update as I come across more.
Psalm 140 remains my favorite. The entire Psalm can be crafted into a prayer and is so right on for what they are dealing with.
Psalm 3: Be his shield, sustain him, strike his enemies on the jaw.
Psalm 4: Shine Your face on him, make him to dwell in safety - to sleep in peace.
Psalm 5: Let him take refuge in You - spread Your protection over him. Surround him with Your favor as with a shield. (Love this one!)
Psalm 9: Cause his enemies to turn back - to stumble and perish before him. Be his stronghold in times of trouble.
Psalm 17: Keep him as the apple of Your eye, hide him in the shadow of Your wings from the wicked who assail him and the enemies who surround him.
Psalm 18: Arm him with strength, make his way perfect. Train his hands for battle. Arm him with strength for battle.
Exodus 23: 27+: Send Your terror ahead of him. Throw his enemies into confusion so that they turn their backs and run.

Psalm 91: Save him from the fowler's snare. Cover him with your feathers, be his refuge. I pray that he would not fear the terror of night, pestilence or plague. That no harm would befall him - no disaster will come near his tent. Be with him in trouble - deliver him and honor him.
