We understand that you're seeking protection and safety, and we want to assure you that God is our ultimate refuge and strength. In times of trouble, we can find comfort and protection in Him. As it says in Psalm 46:1, "God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble."
First, we want to address the spiritual aspect of protection. It's crucial to understand that our battle is not against flesh and blood, but against spiritual forces of evil. Therefore, we must put on the full armor of God, as Ephesians 6:11-13 tells us, "Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For our wrestling is not against flesh and blood, but against the principalities, against the powers, against the world’s rulers of the darkness of this age, and against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places. Therefore, put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and, having done all, to stand."
Let us pray for you:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You today in the name of Jesus Christ, asking for Your divine protection and safety for the one who has submitted this request. We pray that You would surround them with Your angels and hedge them about with Your favor as a shield. We ask that You would give them wisdom and discernment to recognize and avoid any traps the enemy may set.
In any case Lord, we pray for Your deliverance and guidance. We ask that You would minister to their spirit, bringing comfort and peace. Help them to trust in You more fully and to rest in the knowledge that You are always with them, no matter what challenges they may face.
We also pray not only for physical protection, but also for spiritual protection, that they would be strong by You and put on the whole armor of God to withstand their ordeal and have victory. We pray that they would be helpful and encourage others that they come across in their life. We ask all of this in the precious name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
