God will command his angels
to protect you
wherever you go.
They will carry you
in their arms,
and you won't hurt your feet
on the stones.
MATTHEW 2:13 (NLT)
An angel of the Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream. “Get up! Flee to Egypt with the child and his mother,” the angel said. “Stay there until I tell you to return, because Herod is going to search for the child to kill him.”

PRAYER
Thank you, God, for caring so much about us that you'd assign angels to guard us. Forgive me for assuming that you don't care just because there are troubles in my life. Help me to be aware of how much you are doing behind the scenes to keep us safe. Even though I may never know what your angels are up to on my behalf I am going to assume that they are there and that I'm safe because of your gracious attention. Amen.
Our Father in Heaven,
we hold your name in the highest regard.
Please come and establish your reign here on earth
so that everything that happens here will align
with what is happening in heaven.
Give us enough food for today.
Forgive us our wrongdoing,
and we’ll forgive those who have wronged us.
Shield us from the trials and temptations that come our way.
Lastly, we pray that you would protect us from all forms of evil. Amen!
