Thursday Evening’s Prayer for Protection

O Lord our God, You are our Preserver, Governor, Saviour, and coming Judge.
Quicken our souls to call upon Your name; detach us from the influence of the flesh and the senses;
Impress us with the power of faith; Promote in us spirituality of mind that will render our services acceptable to You, and delightful and profitable to ourselves.
Bring us into that state which attracts Your eye, and prepare us to receive the proofs of Your love.
Show us our danger that we may fly to thee for refuge.
Make us sensible of our sin’s disease, that we may value the good Physician.
Placard to us the cross, that it may slay the enmity of our hearts.
Help us to be watchful over our ways, jealous over our tempers, diligent over our hearts.
When we drop, revive us, when we loiter, quicken us, when we go astray, restore us.
Possess us with more of that faith which is the principle of all vital godliness.
May we be rich in faith, be strong in faith, live by faith, walk by faith, experience the joy of faith, do the work of faith, hope through faith.
Perceiving nothing in ourselves, may we find in the Saviour , wisdom, Righteousness , Sanctification, and Redemption. Amen.
