I AM GRATEFUL FOR….PROTECTION OF GOD
\n<\/u><\/strong>Every word of God proves true. He is a shield to all who come to him for protection.<\/em> Proverbs 30:5<\/p>\n

An Attitude of Gratitude Thought & Prayer:
\n<\/u><\/strong>Dear God,
\nI am so grateful for Your protection. Day and night You are with me, protecting me from the evil one, myself and the world.<\/p>\n

I will always be safe if I look to You, for You are my Shield (Genesis 15:1), the One who will protect me from all harm.<\/p>\n

Lord, You are a firm Rock (1 Cor.10:4) on which I can stand in times of doubt.<\/p>\n

You are my Strong Tower (Proverbs 18:10) and Savior (Luke 2:11) whom I can run to in time of fear.<\/p>\n

Oh Lord, I give You thanks and praise for always being my protector!<\/p>\n

The LORD is my rock, my fortress, and my savior; my God is my rock, in whom I find protection. He is my shield, the power that saves me, and my place of safety.<\/em> Psalm 18:2<\/p>\n

The name of the LORD is a strong tower;The righteous run to it and are safe.<\/em> Proverbs 18:10<\/p>\n
