Prayer and Fasting With Transformation Church: The SauceSample

Godly Protection

Safety and security are found in Jesus. We all need protection and we all wrestle with the human need for safety and security. For some of us, we need security in our identities, callings, or relationships. For others of us, we may need safety and protection physically, in our health, or in our finances. The truth is, we all need covering and we all have access to the protection and security of God. We live in a fallen and broken world and at times, we see and experience suffering that is beyond our understanding. We can rest assured in knowing that despite our circumstances we have safe harbor in the arms of our loving Father, through our relationship with Jesus. Today, we stand on the promises of God. He will uphold us, bring us comfort and peace, and there is nothing that can separate us from His love. We come together, praying for His protection and safety that we find in Jesus. Regardless of the trials we may face, we never face them alone. Next time you find yourself tempted to worry about your situation, find encouragement in the Word of God. Imagine the confidence that we can walk in as we embrace safety and security found in the Lord's ultimate victory and protection over our lives.

Application/ Reflection:

• Where do you need to remind yourself of the Lord's ultimate protection in your life?
• Where do you tend to seek protection and security, that is secondary to God?
• How can you encourage others of the protection of God in their situations ?

Prayer:

God, I love you. I thank you for your unconditional love and protection. I pray that as I encounter trials and tribulations in this world I never forget that you have the ultimate authority and victory in my life. I thank you that I am promised eternal life through your Son, Jesus Christ. Although I may experience things that I do not understand, I thank you that you are a good Father. I pray that you are at work as I seek your Word and your promises to declare life, victory, and protection over my circumstances. I surrender my fears for your peace today. Amen.
