Praying for Protection

Read the Bible through:
AM –
Joshua 5-6 : PM – Mark 12:14-37

God’s Presence
Psalm 91:15

15 "He shall call upon Me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him and honor him


Notice the series of promises in today’s key verse. Because God is faithful, we are assured of these helpful truths:
· Personal prayer is heard and answered by God. Whether we pray for protection, peace, or people, God will respond.
· When trouble comes, God is present. In times of sickness, disappointments, losses, and other situations, He is near.
· God will deliver us from whatever threatens to enslave us. We have His assurance of freedom from all bondage.
· God honors the faithfulness of His children. Those who love Him and seek to be true to Him will be rewarded bountifully.

Which of these promises is most relevant to you at this time?

Thank You, God, that You are always faithful to Your wonderful promises.
Help me to be faithful in claiming them.
