out of the hand of the unrighteous and cruel man. For you are my hope,
O Lord God; You are my trust from my youth. O God, do not be far from
me; O my God, make haste to help me. Let them be confounded
and consumed who are adversaries of my life; let them be covered with
reproach and dishonor who seek my hurt. My tongue shall also talk

are brought to shame who seek my hurt.

principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this
age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places.

it by Your hand. The helpless commits himself to You; You are the helper
of the fatherless. Break the arm of the wicked and the evil man. Seek
out his wickedness until you find none.
(Ps.7:10) My defense is of God who save the upright in heart.

the violent man.

on You be ashamed; let those be ashamed who deal treacherously
without cause.
(Ps.23:4-5) Yea though I walk through the valley of the shadow of
death, I will fear no evil; for You are with me; Your rod and Your
staff, they comfort me. You prepare a table for me in the presence
of my enemies; You anoint my head with oil; my cup runs over.
(Ps.56:3,9,11) Whenever I am afraid, I will trust in You. In God
I have put my turst; I will not fear. What can flesh do to me?

because You are for me. In You I have put my trust. I will
not be afraid. What can man do to me? (Ps.59:10,16)

deliver you and you shall glorify Me. (Ps.55:22) Cast
your burden on the Lord, and He shall sustain you; He
shall never permit the righteous to be moved.
(Is.45:2) I will go before you and make the crooked places
straight. (Ps.16:1) Preserve me, O God, for in You I put
my trust. (Ps.121:7-8) The Lord shall preserve you from all
evil; He shall preseve your soul. The Lord shall preserve

You I can run against a troop, by my God I can leap over a
wall. As for God, His way is perfect; the word of the Lord
is proven; He is a shield for all who trust in Him. For who
is God, except the Lord? And who is a rock, except our God?

Surely You shall deliver me from the snare of the fowler
and from the perilous pestilence You shall cover me with Your feathers,
and under Your wings I shall take refuge;
Your truth shall be my shield and buckler.
I shall not be afraid of the terror by night,
nor the destruction that lays waste at noonday.
A thousand may fall at my side, and ten thousand at my right hand;

Only with my eyes shall I look, and see the reward of the wicked.
Because I have made the Lord, who is my refuge,
even the Most High, my dwelling place,
no evil shall befall me, nor shall any plague comenear my dwelling;
for You shall give Your angels charge over me,
to keep me in all my ways.

DAILY HEDGE OF PROTECTION
In the name of Jesus, I bind the wills of every person, known and unknown, (List yourself, family members and others by name) to the will and mind of Christ. I bind our body, soul and spirit to the mind, emotions, purposes and will of God for our lives.
I bind our mind, will and emotions to the will of God. I bind us to the truth and the blood of Jesus. I bind our minds to the mind of Christ, that the very thoughts, feeling and purposes of His heart would be within our thoughts. I bind our feet to the paths of righteousness that their steps would be steady and sure. I bind each of us to God?s timing in our lives. I bind us to the work of the cross, with all its mercy, grace, love, forgiveness and dying to self.
I loose every old, wrong, ungodly pattern of thinking, attitude, desire, idea, belief, motivation, habit and behavior from us. I tear down, crush, smash and destroy every stronghold associated with these things I loose any stronghold in our lives that has been justifying and protecting hard feelings against anyone. I loose the strongholds of unforgiveness, fear and distrust from us. I loose the power and effects of deceptions and lies from us.
I loose confusion and blindness of the god of this world from our mind that has kept us from seeing the light of the gospel of Jesus Christ. I call forth every precious word of Scripture that has ever entered into our mind and heart that it would rise up in power within us.
In the name of Jesus, I loose the power and effects of any harsh or hard words (word curses) spoken to, about or by us. I loose all generational bondages and associated strongholds from us. I loose all effects and bondages and associated strongholds from us that may have been caused by mistakes we have made.
Father, in the name of Jesus, I crush, smash and destroy generational bondages of any kind from mistakes made at any point between generations. I destroy them right here, right now. They will not bind and curse any more members of these families.
I bind the strongman, Satan, that we may spoil his house, taking back seven-fold every material and spiritual possession he has wrongfully taken from us. I loose the enemy's influence over every part of our body, soul and spirit. I loose, crush, smash, and destroy every evil device he may try to bring into our sphere of influence during this day. I loose all negative influences of the world from us.
I crush and smash all the deceptions the enemy may try to use to confuse us. I tear apart, crush, crush and rip asunder the effects of the enemy in every area of our lives, finances, families, homes, work and businesses. I bind and loose these people in Jesus' name. God has given me the keys and the authority to do so. I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.

The Reason for the Season
By Fitzhugh G. Houston
I think about the reason on every single season
Think about the way He gave His life for you and me.
Think about the reason - without rhyme or reason
How He came into my life and finally made me see.
Don't even want to think about, talk about,
Give a shout, about how far I drifted from His path.
Doing stupid things, dumb things, even crazy things
Mercy rained down and saved me from His wrath.
Lost in the muck and mire, lust of human desire
Lost in obsession like gas fueling fire.
Obsessed I need control - solutions cannot find
Confused, I can never find a state of peace of mind.
Tired of all this pounding, emotions still rebounding
Wish I had a way to know when all of this will end.
Then I met my Lord and savior
Came in and changed my bad behavior
Then He came into my life
I made Him my best friend.
Thank you, Lord, for saving me
You could have passed on by.
Thank you, Lord for my salvation
Never asking why.
Thank you, Lord, for my new life
My goals I give to You.
Take them, Lord and let me know
What You want me to do.
Thank you for Your love and joy
I've tried so hard to find.
Thank you, Lord, I found that peace
It's truly one of a kind.
Thank you, Lord, for everything
My list goes on and on.
Thank you, Lord, in You I trust
My fear is finally gone.
Jesus, You're the reason - the reason for the season
I lift You up and give You praise
You lead me all the way.
Jesus, You'rethe reason - the reason for the season
I give You all the glory
Cause You?re why I?m here to day.

The Prayer: Heavenly Father, Most Gracious and Loving God, I ask that You will abundantly bless my family and me. I know that You recognize that a family is more than just a mother and father, sister and brother, husband and wife, but all who believe and trust in You. Father, I send up a prayer request for financial blessing for not only the person who submitted this, but for me and all who are reading this right now. And that the power of joined prayer by those who believe and trust in you is more powerful than anything. I thank you in advance for your blessings. Father GOD, deliver the person reading this right now from debt and debt burdens. Release your Godly Wisdom that they may be good stewards over all that YOU have called them to be in their financial handlings. Father, I know how Wonderful and Mighty You are and how if we just obey You and walk in Your Word and have the faith of a mustard seed that you will pour out Your blessings. I thank you now Lord for the blessings I received and for the blessings yet to come because I know You are not done with me yet.
