Expect God's Protection


We should expect God's protection and thank Him for it.

However, we must remember that we receive from God by faith. If we don’t believe in His protection, we may hinder it from working in our lives.

To strengthen our faith, we need to meditate on God's promises of protection found in the Bible. Here are two powerful scriptures:

Biblical Promises of Protection

📖 Isaiah 54:17 (GWN)
"No weapon that has been made to be used against you will succeed. You will have an answer for anyone who accuses you. This is the inheritance of the LORD’s servants. Their victory comes from me," declares the LORD.

📖 Luke 10:19 (NKJ)
"Behold, I give you the authority to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt you."

Expressing Our Faith in God's Protection

Faith is activated by speaking and thanking God for His promises. The ninety-first Psalm is a powerful declaration of God's protection. We should personalize it and speak it daily.

Confession Based on Psalm 91 (NLT)

💬 Personalized Declaration:

1️⃣ I live in the shelter of the Most High, so I will find rest in the shadow of the Almighty.
2️⃣ This I declare about the LORD: He alone is my refuge, my place of safety; He is my God, and I trust Him.
3️⃣ He will rescue me from every trap and protect me from deadly disease.
4️⃣ He will cover me with His feathers and shelter me with His wings. His faithful promises are my armor and protection.
5️⃣ I will not be afraid of the terrors of the night nor the arrow that flies in the day.
6️⃣ I will not dread the disease that stalks in darkness nor the disaster that strikes at midday.
7️⃣ Though a thousand fall at my side and ten thousand around me, these evils will not touch me.
8️⃣ I will open my eyes and see how the wicked are punished.
9️⃣ I make the LORD my refuge, the Most High my shelter.
🔟 No evil will conquer me; no plague will come near my home.
1️⃣1️⃣ He will order His angels to protect me wherever I go.
1️⃣2️⃣ They will hold me up with their hands so I won’t even hurt my foot on a stone.
1️⃣3️⃣ I will trample upon lions and cobras; I will crush fierce lions and serpents under my feet!
1️⃣4️⃣ The LORD says, "I will rescue those who love me. I will protect those who trust in my name.
1️⃣5️⃣ When they call on me, I will answer; I will be with them in trouble. I will rescue and honor them.
1️⃣6️⃣ I will reward them with a long life and give them my salvation."

Final Prayer & Thanksgiving

🙏 SAY THIS:
"Thank You, Lord, for protecting me and my family today. I trust in Your promises, and I walk in faith knowing that You are my refuge and shield. Amen."
