Securing Protection from Harm

Dear Lord,

I lift Kayla, Travis and Shakira up to You and ask that You would put a mighty hand of protection around them. Protect their spirit, body, mind, and emotions from any kind of evil or harm. I pray specifically for protection from accidents, disease, injury, or any other physical, mental or emotional abuse. I pray that each of them will make their refuge "in the shadow of Your wings" until "all these calamities have passed by." (Psalm 57:1) Hide them from any kind of evil influences that would come against them. Keep them safe from any hidden dangers and let NO weapon formed against them be able to prosper. Thank You Lord, for Your many promises of protection. Help each of them to walk in Your ways and in obedience to Your will so that they will never come out from the umbrella of Your protection. Keep them safe in all that they do or wherever they may go. I release them into Your hands this day.

I ask this according to Your good and perfect will,
In Jesus' Holy name,
Amen




***Things happen when we pray for our children that will not happen if we don't. What might happen, or might not happen, to our children if we don't pray today? let's not wait to find out!!! Let's get on our knees for them now!!

"Weapons of Warfare"

Psalm 91:1-2 (Amplified Bible)
1)HE WHO dwells in the secret place of the Most High shall remain stable and fixed under the shadow of the Almighty [Whose power no foe can withstand].
2)I will say of the Lord, He is my Refuge and my Fortress, my God; on Him I lean and rely, and in Him I [confidently] trust!


Isaiah 43:2 (Amplified Bible)
When you pass through the waters, I will be with you, and through the rivers, they will not overwhelm you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be burned or scorched, nor will the flame kindle upon you.


Isaiah 54:17 (Amplified Bible)
But no weapon that is formed against you shall prosper, and every tongue that shall rise against you in judgment you shall show to be in the wrong. This [peace, righteousness, security, triumph over opposition] is the heritage of the servants of the Lord [those in whom the ideal Servant of the Lord is reproduced]; this is the righteousness or the vindication which they obtain from Me [this is that which I impart to them as their justification], says the Lord.


Psalm 91:9-10 (Amplified Bible)
9)Because you have made the Lord your refuge, and the Most High your dwelling place,10)There shall no evil befall you, nor any plague or calamity come near your tent.


Psalm 4:8 (Amplified Bible)
In peace I will both lie down and sleep, for You, Lord, alone make me dwell in safety and confident trust.
