Heavenly Father,
I come to You today seeking Your protection for myself, my family, and loved ones. I am aware of Your almighty power and omniscience, and I trust in Your boundless love and goodness. I humbly ask that You would surround us with Your holy angels to guard us against all harm.
I pray that You would keep us in Your loving care and guide us in all our ways. I am confident that You are always with us and that Your love never fails. I trust in Your great power and know that You will protect us from all evil.
I ask that You would grant me the strength and courage to remain steadfast in my faith, and the wisdom and discernment to discern Your will for my life. I implore that You would never leave or forsake me or my loved ones.
I ask for Your protection against all forms of evil, and that You would keep us under Your loving care always. I give You thanks and praise, in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.
