A Strong Prayer for Protection

prayer for protection

Heavenly Father,

As I journey through life’s uncertainties and face daily challenges, I come before you seeking your divine protection. Your word in Psalm 91:4 assures me, “He will cover you with his feathers, and under his wings you will find refuge; his faithfulness will be your shield and rampart.” Lord, I declare my trust in you as my refuge and stronghold, knowing that under your wings, I find shelter from harm.

Surround me with your divine shield of protection, as it says in Psalm 5:11, ‘But let all who take refuge in you be glad; let them ever sing for joy. Spread your protection over them, that those who love your name may rejoice in you.’ May your protective hand be upon me, guarding me, from all forms of evil and danger.

Lord, you are my defender and my shield, as Psalm 28:7 proclaims, ‘The Lord is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in him, and he helps me. My heart leaps for joy, and with my song I praise him.’ Strengthen my faith and embolden my spirit, knowing that you are with me wherever I go.

Protect me from the snares of the enemy, shielding me from temptation and harm. Your word in 2 Thessalonians 3:3 assures me that ‘the Lord is faithful, and he will strengthen you and protect you from the evil one.’ I claim this promise, trusting in your faithfulness to keep me safe.

In the name of Jesus, I rebuke every scheme of the enemy and every force of darkness that seeks to harm me. Cover me with your precious blood, Lord, and let your angels surround me, keeping me safe in your care.

Amen
