a prayer of protection. Heavenly Father, I come
to You with a heart full of trust, knowing You
are my refuge and strength, You are my shield,
my fortress, and the one in whom I place my hope.
Wrap me in Your arms today, and let Your presence
be my covering. I ask that You place a hedge
of protection around me, around my mind, my heart,
my body, and my spirit. Guard me from harm, from
danger, seen, and unseen. Protect me from every
attack of the enemy, every snare, and every trap.
Lord, let your angels encamp around me, standing
watch at every door, every path, every decision.
May no weapon formed against me prosper, and
may every tongue that rises in judgment be silenced.
I declare that I dwell in the secret place of
the Most High, and under the shadow of the Almighty
I will rest. You are my refuge and my fortress,
my God in whom I trust. No evil shall befall
me, nor shall any plague come near my home. Surround
my family, my friends, and all that I hold dear.
Cover us in the blood of Jesus, our banner, our
shield, our victory. Let your peace, which passes
all understanding, guard our hearts and minds
in Christ Jesus. Thank You, Lord, for going before
me and being my rear guard. Thank You for never
leaving or forsaking me. I rest in Your promises
and walk forward without fear, knowing that You
are always with me. In Jesus' powerful name I
pray. Amen.
