PRAYER OF PROTECTION

  

PRAYER OF PROTECTION, a good morning prayer or prayer at the beginning of fellowship.

In the name of Jesus Christ and by the power of His Cross, His Blood, and Resurrection, we bind up the power of all evil spirits and command them not to block our prayers or interfere with us in any way.  We bind up the powers of earth, air, water, fire, the netherworld and the satanic forces of nature.

We break any curses, hexes, and spells sent against us and declare them powerless, null and void.  We break the assignments of any spirits sent against us and send them to Jesus.

We bind and break off all interaction and communication in the world of evil spirits, as it concerns us and the ministry of Jesus Christ.

Lord, we ask you to bless our human opposition by sending Your Holy Spirit to lead them to repentance and salvation.

We ask You Lord for the protection of the shed blood of Jesus Christ over us.  Thank you, Lord, for your protection.

Please send your mighty angels to minister to us, to help us in this battle, to protect us, and to keep our feet from stumbling.  We ask Lord, that you guide us in our prayers, and that You share with us Your Spirit's power and compassion.  Lord, we ask that You be glorified in all things.  Amen.

 

PRAYER OF BREAKING FREE, a good prayer at the end of the day or when fellowship or prayer group breaks up to go home.

Lord Jesus, thank you for sharing with us your wonderful ministry of healing and reconciliation.  Thank you for the healings and freedom we have seen and experienced today.  

We realize that the sickness and evil we encounter is more than our humanity can bear, so cleanse us of any sadness, negativity or despair that we may have picked up.  If our ministry has tempted us to anger, impatience or lust, please cleanse us of those temptations and replace them with your love, joy and peace.  If any evil spirits have attached themselves to us or oppressed us in any way, we command you spirits of earth, air, fire, water, the netherworld and the satanic forces of nature, to depart now - and go straight to Jesus Christ for him to deal with you as He will.

Come Holy Spirit, renew us - fill us anew with your power, your life, and your joy.  Strengthen us where we have felt weak and clothe us with your light.  Lord Jesus, please send your holy angels to minister to us and to our families - guard us and protect us from all diseases, sickness, harm and accidents.  We praise you now and forever, Father, Son and Holy Spirit.  We ask these things in your holy name Lord Jesus, that you may be glorified.  Amen!

Bible study on suffering

My comfort in my suffering is this:

    Your promise preserves my life. Psalms 119:50

“I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.” john 16:33

 or because of these surpassingly great revelations. Therefore, in order to keep me from becoming conceited, I was given a thorn in my flesh, a messenger of Satan, to torment me.  Three times I pleaded with the Lord to take it away from me.  But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me.  That is why, for Christ’s sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong. 2 Corinthians 12:7-10

Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds,  because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance.  Let perseverance finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything.

James 1:2-4,12

And the God of all grace, who called you to his eternal glory in Christ, after you have suffered a little while, will himself restore you and make you strong, firm and steadfast. 1 peter 5:10

In all this you greatly rejoice, though now for a little while you may have had to suffer grief in all kinds of trials.  These have come so that the proven genuineness of your faith—of greater worth than gold, which perishes even though refined by fire—may result in praise, glory and honor when Jesus Christ is revealed. 

1 Peter 1:6-7

Dear friends, do not be surprised at the fiery ordeal that has come on you to test you, as though something strange were happening to you. 13 But rejoice inasmuch as you participate in the sufferings of Christ, so that you may be overjoyed when his glory is revealed.  If you are insulted because of the name of Christ, you are blessed, for the Spirit of glory and of God rests on you.  If you suffer, it should not be as a murderer or thief or any other kind of criminal, or even as a meddler.  However, if you suffer as a Christian, do not be ashamed, 

but praise God that you bear that name. 1 Peter 4:12-16,19

For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all.  2 Corinthians 4:17

But he knows the way that I take;

    when he has tested me, I will come forth as gold. job 23:10

But those who suffer he delivers in their suffering;

    he speaks to them in their affliction. job 36:15

For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.

    male and female he created them. Genesis 1:27
