Prayer of the Protected

I lift up my eyes to the mountains— where does my help come from? My help comes from the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth. He will not let your foot slip— he who watches over you will not slumber; indeed, he who watches over Israel will neither slumber nor sleep. The Lord watches over you— the Lord is your shade at your right hand; the sun will not harm you by day, nor the moon by night. The Lord will keep you from all harm— he will watch over your life; the Lord will watch over your coming and going both now and forevermore.” -Psalm 121:1-8

May we be cleansed in your holy fire and may our reality be held in your hand as you breathe life, love and protection into it. To keep it stable and healthy and always in your sight, Father. Let us descend into our hearts and speak to you from there. Let us recapture the wellspring of life. To restore our regard for one another by treating our neighbor as we would want to be treated and by upholding our values of truth and transparency.

Breathe on our world and bless it, Father, for we are all one in you. May our hearts swell in joy today and our feet be as light as wings. For we know that we are designed to be creative and wise and powerful and loving. That everything changes for the better when we look at it and choose to shine our light. We owe you gratitude for these gifts and tools, and so much more. Keep us safe, Father, we know that when our reality is placed in your hands, that we are safe and protected and moving closer to the Light.

In you, Lord, I have taken refuge; let me never be put to shame; deliver me in your righteousness. Turn your ear to me, come quickly to my rescue; be my rock of refuge, a strong fortress to save me. Since you are my rock and my fortress, for the sake of your name lead and guide me. Keep me free from the trap that is set for me, for you are my refuge. Into your hands I commit my spirit; deliver me, Lord, my faithful God.” -Psalm 31:1-5

In Jesus name we pray,

Amen

God is Victory
