You should note which pronoun you want to know about. Fortunately, there are only two "this" and "our."

Our refers to the entire nation and those living and praying in it. They all possess the young men (sons) whom the speaker is praying for.

this is a possessive pronoun. It means today. We may not be able to make the same prayer tomorrow.
