We stand with you in your prayer for protection, trusting in the power of Jesus' name. It is wonderful that you acknowledge the power in Jesus' name and we want to remind you that it is only by the name of Jesus that we have access to God. Let us guide you through this trial.
Firstly, it is important to address that prayer should only be directed to God through the name of Jesus as the Bible strongly tells us to avoid trying to communicate to those who have died or angels. We are not to pray to St Michael or any other angel or dead saint.
In Acts 4:12 WEB it says, "There is salvation in none other, for neither is there any other name under heaven, that is given among men, by which we must be saved!"
Let us also remember what the Lord promises in Psalm 91, "He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of Yahweh, 'He is my refuge and my fortress; my God, in whom I trust.' For he will deliver you from the snare of the fowler, and from the deadly pestilence. He will cover you with his feathers. Under his wings you will take refuge. His faithfulness is your shield and rampart" Psalm 91:1-4 WEB.
As you navigate this challenging situation, remember God does not give us a spirit of fear. "For God did not give us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and self-control" 2 Timothy 1:7 WEB. Take courage and do not be afraid to face the challenges. If the people are intending to do evil to you, remember the words of Jesus. "But I tell you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who mistreat you and persecute you" Matthew 5:44 WEB. Be sure to not repay evil with evil.
Heavenly Father, we come before you today, lifting up our brother/sister in need of your divine protection. Surround them with your heavenly hosts, and guide them by your Holy Spirit. Grant them the wisdom to avoid danger and the courage to face any challenges that come their way. We trust in your promise that nothing can separate us from your love. We also pray for those who may intend to do evil against them, that they will learn of your love for them. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
Stand firm in your faith, and remember that God is always with you. Be strong and very courageous in the strength of the Lord. Do not be afraid to face them.
