Father, give attention to Your servant’s prayer and plea for mercy. Hear the cry and the prayer that I’m praying in Your presence today. [2 Chronicles 6:19]

- Protect: “…Lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil.”
Sovereign Lord, You’ve begun to show to me Your greatness and Your strong hand. For what god is there in heaven or on earth who can do the deeds and mighty works that You do? [Deuteronomy 3:24]
