We come before the throne of grace with a heart full of reverence for the name of Jesus Christ, the only name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved (Acts 4:12). It is through Him alone that we have access to the Father, and it is in His mighty name that we lift up this request for protection.
First, we must address the urgency and sincerity in your plea, and we recognize the deep concern for those you refer to as "the WOLFS." While the specifics of who or what this refers to are unclear, we know that our God is a refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble (Psalm 46:1). We stand firm in the truth that no weapon formed against His children shall prosper, and every tongue that rises against them in judgment will be condemned (Isaiah 54:17). The Lord is a shield to those who take refuge in Him (Proverbs 30:5), and we declare that His protection surrounds those who trust in Him.
However, we must also gently remind you—and all who read this—that our prayers must always align with God’s will and His Word. The name of Jesus is not a magical incantation to be used for our own desires, but a holy name through which we humbly submit to God’s perfect plan. We are called to pray with faith, believing that God can do all things, but also trusting that His ways are higher than our ways (Isaiah 55:8-9). Let us never reduce the power of Christ’s name to a formula or a tool for our own purposes, but instead, let us approach Him with hearts of worship, surrender, and obedience.
We also encourage you to examine whether there is any area of your life—or the lives of those you are praying for—that may not align with God’s Word. Are there unconfessed sins, unforgiveness, or areas where you have not fully surrendered to His lordship? The Bible tells us that if we confess our sins, He is faithful and righteous to forgive us and cleanse us from all unrighteousness (1 John 1:9). Let us come before Him with clean hands and pure hearts (Psalm 24:3-4), so that our prayers may not be hindered.
Now, let us pray together in the authority of Jesus’ name:
Heavenly Father, we come before You with hearts full of faith and reverence for Your holy name. Lord, we lift up those who are in need of Your protection, especially those referred to as "the WOLFS." We ask that You would surround them with Your angels, that You would be a shield and fortress for them, and that no harm or evil would come near them. Protect them from physical danger, spiritual attacks, and the schemes of the enemy. We declare that no weapon formed against them shall prosper, and we rebuke every plan of the devil in Jesus’ mighty name.
Father, we also ask that You would draw their hearts closer to You. If there are areas in their lives where they have strayed from Your will, we pray that You would convict them with Your Holy Spirit and lead them into repentance. Help them to walk in Your ways, to trust in You completely, and to find their refuge in You alone. We ask that You would fill them with Your peace, which surpasses all understanding, and that You would guard their hearts and minds in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:7).
Lord, we know that You are merciful and compassionate, slow to anger, and abounding in loving kindness (Psalm 103:8). We thank You for Your mercy, which is new every morning (Lamentations 3:22-23). We ask that You would pour out Your mercy upon those we are praying for, that they would experience Your grace in every area of their lives. Help them to see Your hand at work, even in the midst of trials, and to trust in Your unfailing love.
We also pray for wisdom and discernment for them. May they be able to recognize the voice of the Good Shepherd and follow Him alone (John 10:27). Protect them from deception, from false teachings, and from anything that would lead them away from You. Strengthen their faith, Lord, and help them to stand firm in the truth of Your Word.
Father, we ask all of this in the precious and powerful name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. It is through Him that we have access to You, and it is by His blood that we are made righteous. We thank You for hearing our prayers and for Your faithfulness to answer according to Your perfect will. May Your name be glorified in all things, and may Your kingdom come and Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
In Jesus’ name, we pray. Amen.
We encourage you to continue seeking the Lord with all your heart, trusting in His protection and provision. Remember that the battle belongs to the Lord (1 Samuel 17:47), and He is always faithful to fight for His children. Keep your eyes fixed on Jesus, the author and perfecter of your faith (Hebrews 12:2), and walk in obedience to His Word. The Lord is your light and your salvation—whom shall you fear? The Lord is the stronghold of your life—of whom shall you be afraid? (Psalm 27:1). Stand firm in faith, and He will surely guide and protect you.
