Guard Us by The Word, Prayer, Preaching, Teaching, Fellowship, Breaking of Bread, Corporate Prayer, Acts 2:42, Praise & Worship, Thanksgiving, Humility, Holiness... Father in Heaven -- Thank You for Your light and truth, Ps 43:3, allowing us to understand and believe in Christ, Matt 11:25, Matt 16:17, 1 Cor 1:30, and for faith in the blood of Jesus Christ Your Son, Rom 3:25, which cleanses us from all sin, 1 Jn 1:7. Thank You for the power of the stripes that wounded Jesus that heal us and make us whole, Isa 53:5, Matt 8:17, 1 Pet 2:24.

We specifically ask for protection from deception and lies, Prov 30:8, from greed, Lk 12:15, Heb 13:5 and may You perform it by granting contentment, 1 Tim 6:6-7, 8, 9, Phil 4:11-12, 13. Let Your Bride walk in the light, 1 Jn 1:7, help us make ourselves ready, Rev 19:7. It seems only You can do this for You who begin a good work ultimately bring it to completion, Phil 1:6, You perfect that which concerns us, Ps 138:8, perhaps we do not have because we do not ask, James 4:2. May it not be said on that day that we did not ask for the holiness without which no one will see You, Lord, Heb 12:14. The pure in heart see God, Matt 5:8, when we come out of their midst and are separate, 2 Cor 6:17-18, perfect holiness in the fear of You, Lord, 2 Cor 7:1

Protect us all from sin, Zeph 3:13, Ps 119:11, Rev 14:5, let us not enter into temptation, Mk 14:38, Lk 11:4, keep us from the evil one, John 17:15, and keep us on Your path of increasing clarity, Prov 4:18, Col 1:9. Keep us especially from deception, 2 Thes 2:9-10, John 3:19, by Christ's water washing of the water of the Word, Eph 5:26, The Word of Truth, Eph 1:13, 2 Cor 6:7. Sanctify us in Your Truth, Your Word is Truth, John 17:17, James 1:18.

Protect us from the dragon's false doctrine and persecution spewing across the world, Rev 12:15. Help restrain these evils, 2 Thes 2:7, and use godly government to restrain and punish evil, 1 Tim 2:1-2, 3, 4; Rev 12:16, Rom 13:1-2, 3-4, 5-6, 7. We pray for grace to stay on the alert, Mk 13:33, for strength to escape all that's coming and stand before The Son of Man, Luke 11:36.

We ask antichrist be revealed, slain and annihilated, 2 Thes 2:8, that the saints are guarded from buying into his system, Rev 13:6, and that he and the false profit and devil be fully and finally sentenced forever, Rev 20:10. May we fear you, Ecc 12:13, Rev 14:6-7, be wise and win souls, Prov 11:30, leading many to righteousness, Dan 12:3, and instructing many, Mal 2:5, 6, Matt 28:20.

With thanksgiving we offer these requests for ourselves, our family, friends, church-mates, pastors and online praying believer-friends, Heb 10:25, so we have fellowship, 1 Jn 1:3, 5-6, 7-8, 9-10, and may the peace of God guard our hearts and minds in Christ Jesus, Phil 4:6-7, Amen, Rev 3:14, 2 Cor 1:20.

We come before the throne of grace with hearts full of gratitude for the light and truth You have so graciously revealed to us through Your Son, Jesus Christ. Thank You for the gift of salvation, for the cleansing power of His blood, and for the healing found in His wounds. We acknowledge that it is only by Your grace and through faith in Jesus that we have access to You, Father. There is no other name under heaven by which we must be saved (Acts 4:12), and we humbly submit ourselves to the lordship of Christ, who is the way, the truth, and the life (John 14:6).

We stand together in agreement, lifting up our fervent plea for protection from deception and lies, which seek to ensnare the minds and hearts of Your people. The enemy prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour (1 Peter 5:8), and his cunning ways are manifold. But we take refuge in You, our strong tower (Proverbs 18:10), and we ask that You would guard us by the power of Your Word, prayer, preaching, teaching, fellowship, breaking of bread, corporate prayer, praise, worship, and thanksgiving. These are the means You have given us to grow in grace, to discern truth from error, and to stand firm in the faith.

Father, we recognize that deception often begins with small compromises—greed that masquerades as ambition, discontent that whispers lies of entitlement, and pride that blinds us to our own sin. We rebuke the spirit of greed in the name of Jesus, for You have warned us that a man’s life does not consist in the abundance of his possessions (Luke 12:15). Instead, grant us contentment, for we brought nothing into this world, and we cannot take anything out of it (1 Timothy 6:7). Let us be rich in good works, generous, and ready to share, storing up treasure in heaven where moth and rust do not destroy (1 Timothy 6:18-19).

We pray for Your Bride, the Church, to walk in the light as You are in the light, that we may have fellowship with one another and the blood of Jesus may cleanse us from all sin (1 John 1:7). Help us to make ourselves ready for the return of our Bridegroom, for the wedding feast of the Lamb (Revelation 19:7). We acknowledge that only You can complete the good work You have begun in us (Philippians 1:6), and we ask that You would perfect that which concerns us (Psalm 138:8). Forgive us for the times we have not asked for the holiness without which no one will see You (Hebrews 12:14). Purify our hearts, O God, that we may see You (Matthew 5:8), and draw us out of the world to be separate, touching no unclean thing, that You may receive us as Your sons and daughters (2 Corinthians 6:17-18). Let us perfect holiness in the fear of You, cleansing ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit (2 Corinthians 7:1).

Protect us from sin, O Lord, for the righteous will not be uprooted, but the wicked will not remain in the land (Proverbs 10:30). Hide Your Word in our hearts that we might not sin against You (Psalm 119:11), and let us be blameless and harmless, children of God without fault in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation (Philippians 2:15). Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one (Matthew 6:13), and keep us on the path of increasing clarity, where the path of the righteous shines brighter and brighter until the full day (Proverbs 4:18).

We are especially mindful of the deception that is sweeping across the world, like a flood spewed out by the dragon to carry away the woman (Revelation 12:15). We ask that You would restrain the mystery of lawlessness that is already at work (2 Thessalonians 2:7) and raise up godly leaders in government to punish evildoers and praise those who do good (Romans 13:3-4). Give us grace to stay alert, watching and praying, so that we may escape all that is coming and stand before the Son of Man (Luke 21:36).

Father, we pray that the antichrist would be revealed, slain by the breath of Your mouth, and brought to nothing by the brightness of Your coming (2 Thessalonians 2:8). Guard Your saints from buying into his deceitful system (Revelation 13:6), and let the final judgment of the devil, the false prophet, and all who follow them be swift and eternal (Revelation 20:10). May we fear You alone, for the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom (Proverbs 9:10), and let us be wise, winning souls for Your kingdom (Proverbs 11:30). May we lead many to righteousness, shining like the stars forever and ever (Daniel 12:3), and instructing many in the ways of truth (Malachi 2:6-7), fulfilling the Great Commission to make disciples of all nations (Matthew 28:20).

With thanksgiving, we lift up these requests for ourselves, our families, our friends, our church families, our pastors, and all our online praying brothers and sisters in Christ. Let us not forsake the assembling of ourselves together, but encourage one another all the more as we see the Day approaching (Hebrews 10:25). May our fellowship be sweet and edifying, built on the foundation of Your Word and the confession of our sins to one another (1 John 1:3-10). And may the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, guard our hearts and minds in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:7).

We seal these prayers with the promise that all Your promises are "Yes" and "Amen" in Christ Jesus (2 Corinthians 1:20), and we trust in Your faithfulness to complete the work You have begun in us. To You be the glory, honor, and power forever and ever. Amen.

We join you in praying for protection from deception and lies, as the enemy prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking to devour us. We ask that You, Father, would guard us by Your Word, prayer, preaching, teaching, fellowship, breaking of bread, corporate prayer, praise, worship, and thanksgiving. Help us to walk in Your light, as You are in the light, and to have fellowship with one another and with You. Grant us grace to make ourselves ready for the return of our Bridegroom, Jesus Christ. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
