One of the greatest portions of scripture about protection is in Psalms 91. I encourage you to commit it to memory, and then to live in the realization that God is your fortress and you strong tower. He is your shield. Verses 14 and 15 say this… “Because he loves me, says the Lord, I will rescue him, I will protect him, for he acknowledges my name. He will call on me and I will answer him, I will be with him in trouble, I will deliver him and honor him. With long life I will satisfy him and show him my salvation. We can make this whole chapter a prayer….. Pray this with me, Father, as we dwell in the shadow of your wings, we know that You are our refuge and our fortress, and we trust in Your strength. We rest confidently in knowing that You will protect us from any kind of snare the enemy puts in our path, and You will keep us safe from all forms of pestilence. We find rest close to your heart. We will not live in fear, because greater are You on the inside of me, than he that is in the world. Even if destruction is all around me, I will be safe, because You are my protector. I remember that You are My refuge, and in You I will forever live, because there, no harm can overtake me, and no disaster can come near me. Your angels oh God minister on my behalf, and You command them to guard me in all of my ways, even to keep my feet from stumbling. I will keep the enemy under my feet, as I walk with authority in who You have created me to be. Thank you Lord, for Your protection, and Your attentiveness to me. Thank be to God that You are always with me, and You will according to Your Word, deliver and bless me. Thank You for the promise of long life as we follow after You, and walk out our salvation. In Jesus Name, AMEN.
