Protection prayers

Last night I received the prayer of protection from friends (co-workers) in Canada. We have been working together on the prayer campaign (January 22-29), and the protection prayer was formalized last night.

Dear Heavenly Father, we come before you and your Divine Court, and Lord we just ask for this prayer for the protection for the mother that is to be in labour for the company of saints representing the remnant.

Heavenly Father, we ask for protection specifically for the womb that is hosting the manchild, and for the manchild to be protected in this womb.

Heavenly Father we also ask and pray specifically for the fruitfulness of Joseph within this work in the land of the United States of America and Canada, and that you would bring forth the reuniting of Joseph's sons under Christ in our two lands as one.

Heavenly Father we ask that you would commission and send the archangel Michael, and ask him to be active in protecting the woman and her womb. Lord we ask this in Jesus’ name. Amen.

I received a phone call early this morning, informing me of an angel and a demon of some sort coming my way. The demon was sent to monitor me, and the angel was sent to monitor him. We were led to pray that God would put a canopy over us, our property, the office, and all communication devices so that we and our conversations would be hidden. Though we are more than conquerors, we are challenged at every step, even as we ourselves challenge the enemy in everything he does.

The Hebrew word for such a canopy is chuppah, a canopy, covering, chamber.

When I came to the office, I saw this blog in my inbox. I thought it was appropriate. The title is: The Angel of the Lord encamps all around those who fear Him.

The article goes on to speak of Revelation 12:13-16, a prophecy that promises protection to the woman bringing forth her Son in the earlier verses. When Michael is successful in defeating the dragon (and in protecting the woman and her son), the dragon then tries to persecute the woman. She flees into the wilderness and is then protected by the earth itself.

The article above also cites Psalm 34:7,

⁷ The angel of the Lord encamps around those who fear Him and rescues them.

This article, and the timing of its arrival, tells me that Michael has again protected the “son” that is currently coming to birth. However, this is not the end of the story, for we still require further protection under His chuppah. This is what we prayed about early this morning, and this article confirmed this an hour later.

Since the “woman” in Revelation 12 represents an entire body of people, I suggest that all of you pray the same prayer of protection in your own words. It does not have to be an elaborate prayer, just a simple one. I like simplicity. I admire Peter’s prayer in Matthew 14:30, “Lord, save me!” Peter did not have time to compose an eloquent prayer, nor did he take time to go through a long introduction with flowery language. He cut to the chase. Peter is my kind of guy.

But if you have time and want to compose a beautiful prayer, go right ahead! There is nothing wrong with that either. Paul gives us a great example in Ephesians 3:14-21, which should be the prayer of every heart as well.

¹⁴ For this reason I bow my knees before the Father, ¹⁵ from whom every family in heaven and on earth derives its name, ¹⁶ that He would grant you [me], according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with power through His Spirit in the inner man, ¹⁷ so that Christ may dwell in your hearts [my heart] through faith; and that you [I], being rooted and grounded in love, ¹⁸ may be able to comprehend with all the saints what is the breadth and length and height and depth, ¹⁹ and to know the love of Christ which surpasses knowledge, that you [I] may be filled up to all the fullness of God. ²⁰ Now to Him who is able to do far more abundantly beyond all that we ask or think, ²¹ to Him be the glory in the church and in Christ Jesus to all generations forever and ever. Amen.
