Speaker 1 (00:00):
I am Sherry Mackie, and it's time for us to
go to God in prayer. And as always I ask
that you join along with me in prayer. And today
I just want to pray about the protection of God, Heaven,
a father in the name of Jesus. When we come
before you today with grateful hearts, knowing God that you
are our refuge. You are our fortress. God, You are
(00:23):
our God. We can trust safely in You, God, knowing
that when the world feels dangerous, when the world feels uncertain, God,
we can rest in the assurance that we are covered
by You. God. We thank you. Thank you for being
our shield. Thank you for being the one who guards
us when we can't guard ourselves. When we leave our homes,
(00:45):
you go before us when we sleep at night. Your
angels stand watch over us, over our families. When fear
whispers threats in the dark, you silence it with your presence. Lord,
So many times you've protected us from things we didn't
even see, accidents that never happened, dangers that never reached us,
battles that were one before we even knew there was
(01:07):
a fight. You've been our unseen defender, our constant keeper,
our faithful guard. Father, your word declares in Psalms Mighty one,
that he who dwells in the secret place of the
most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.
And today, Lord, we want to stay right there under
your shadow, right there, under your wing, right there under
(01:31):
your divine protection and covering, because there's no safer place
to be than in your presence. When the storms of
life rage around us. God, you are a shelter when
the arrows of the enemy fly by day, you are
our shield when fear tries to paralyze us. You speak
(01:53):
peace to our hearts. God, we ask you to protect
our minds from anxiety, our hearts from bitterness, and our
spirits from despair. Guard our families, guard our children, guard
our communities. God, not just from physical harm, but from
spiritual attacks, and try to steal our faith and joy.
And even when trouble comes, because Lord, we know the
(02:16):
weapons will form, we thank you they will not prosper
because you have already surrounded us with your faithor like
a shield. You've already commanded your angels to encamp around
those who fear you. So today, Father, we walk in confidence,
not because of who we are, but because of who
(02:36):
you are. You are our rock, You are our defender,
You are our mighty warrior. You fight battles we cannot
see you win victories we cannot count. God, remind us
that your protection isn't always about keeping us out of
the storm. Sometimes it's about keeping us through the storm.
(02:58):
Sometimes it's not that we avoid the fire, butt that
you step into the fire with us, just like you
did for shatdrag me scheck and I' betting to go,
And when we come out, not even the smell of
smoke is gonna be on us. Lord, Thank you for
covering us with your precious blood. Thank you for being
a fence all around us every day. Thank you for
(03:20):
watching over our comings and our goings. Thank you for
standing between us and the enemy. Thank you for never
slumbering or sleeping. God, we declared today that no weapon
formed against us shall be able to prosper. No sickness,
no scheme, no storm will destroy what You've destined for
our lives. Because we belong to you, and God, you
(03:43):
never lose what's yours. So we rest in your protection.
We walk in your peace, and we stand in the
confidence that you, Lord, are our keeper now and forevermore
in Jesus' name. Amen Amen, Amen
