DAILY PRAYERS FOR GUYS

For Those Who Protect and Serve

Strong Father,
Watch over all those whose work includes putting themselves in harm’s way to protect and serve others. Whether at the local or national level, at home or abroad, guard and keep them as they dutifully fulfill their responsibilities. See that they are well-trained and that adequate oversight ensures that their training is carried out properly, both for their own good and for the safety of those entrusted to their protection. Keep them humble and obedient to those over them, so they would not give in to any temptation to consider themselves above the very law they are charged with enforcing. Prevent all efforts to undermine or interfere with their work, which might cause injury or harm to them or to others. May they feel supported in their line of work, be blessed to see the positive impact it has, and be encouraged by the difference it makes in the lives of those they serve.

In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen. 

DAILY PRAYERS FOR GUYS

For Those Traveling for the Holidays

Protecting Father,
Plans are in place for family and friends to gather and celebrate this month and especially next week. Direct your angels to watch and keep all travelers safe. Keep drivers on the road well-rested and attentive. Keep pilots in the air alert and focused. Ensure that precautionary steps and safety procedures in all areas of travel are diligently carried out and no corners are cut. Equip first responders and emergency care providers with all of the resources they need to act swiftly to provide help and aid whenever it is needed. Use travelers, too, to be aware and to look out for each other and be a source of help to those in need. Grant patience and discernment to all who oversee the logistics of mass transportation and bless their efforts in the busy days ahead.

In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen. 

DAILY PRAYERS FOR GUYS

To Guard and Protect Others

Mighty Father,
You are the perfect protector and guardian of all. Whether you task your guardian angels with keeping us safe or get directly involved by divine intervention, you diligently watch over those who are yours. In one way or another, you always keep your promise to deliver us. 

You also call me to love my neighbors by living sacrificially for them. That sacrifice will most often show itself in the form of sacrificial living, as I put my neighbor’s needs before my own. Nevertheless, if the situation ever arises, let me also be willing to put my own life on the line to protect the lives of others. It is a sad statement of our times that tragedy can strike in so many ways at the hands of violent people with wicked motives. Cause good and godly men to rise up to the occasion and guard and protect those in harm’s way when danger strikes. Thwart the evil and malicious intentions of any who plot death and destruction, and guard and protect all who are willing to sacrifice their own lives to stop them.

In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.
