PRAYER FOR DIVINE PROTECTION & SAFETY
As we journey through 2026, we must choose to rest in God as our Keeper, our Refuge, and our Defender. We pray for divine protection because life brings uncertainties, spiritual battles, and unseen challenges. Yet God has promised to preserve us, shield us, and establish us in safety. As we acknowledge Him as our Keeper, we place our lives under His divine covering — trusting Him to guard our paths, preserve our souls, and keep us secure in the midst of spiritual battles and everyday life.
Prayer positions us to walk consciously under God’s protection, guided by His wisdom and upheld by His power.
