Heavenly Father, we stand on Your promises that when we pass through the waters, You will be with us, and when we walk through the fire, we will not be burned. We declare Your Word over our lives today, trusting in Your protection and provision. Shield us from harm, and let Your angels encamp around us and our loved ones. Provide for every need, and remind us that You are our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in times of trouble.
