Protection

Spiritual protection is very real to those who know God, yet His Power and His Love are awesome and know no bounds. 

When we pray for others, a good spiritual partner, many years ago, advised us it was wise to pray the Our Father before and after praying for otters. The Our Father is the perfect prayer of protection, for asks that we be delivered from all evil. 

This is an interesting phrase, for it acknowledges the reality of evil and it’s presence here, yet it also recognises and affirms that the Power of God is greater still, as it must be, ultimately. 

Thus we can pray in confidence knowing that God is with us, especially in these worrying times, when the world seems to be breaking apart on many levels.

I banish all evil, in Jesus Christ’s name.

In Him I hope and trust. Amen
