Your prayer for your household has been laid before the Lord and we join our hearts with yours in seeking His gracious keeping.
How tender is the Father's care toward His own, and how sweet is that word, Casting all your care upon Him, for He cares for you. You have done well to cast your burden upon the Lord rather than to carry it within yourself, for the very anxiety which arises through being in a difficulty unfits you to meet that difficulty. Faith overcomes fear when it looks away from self to the strong arm which piled the heavens and sustains the pillars of the earth.
Hear the Lord's own command so often repeated in His garden, Fear not. Fear not, thou worm Jacob, I will help thee, saith the Lord. Fear not, for I am with thee, be not dismayed, for I am thy God. To fear at all is to dishonor Him who has promised to help us, and perfect love casts out fear, for fear hath torment. Labor then to get rid of fear, not by your own strength, but by trusting the promised strength, and remember that the fear of God brings blessing while the fear of man brings a snare.
We pray with you that the Lord Himself would be a wall of fire round about your home, as He has promised to His people, and that He would give His angels charge over you to keep you in all your ways, for the angel of the Lord encampeth round about them that fear Him. May every assignment of the enemy be shattered, and may the Lord rebuke all danger, both seen and unseen, and set His divine order over all that concerns you.
And concerning those spirits of fear, anxiety, confusion and sickness which trouble you, we ask the Great Physician to come with healing in His wings. There is an abundance of healing power in Jesus Christ, not only in His fruit but in His leaves, for the leaves of the tree are for the healing of the nations. The least thing about Christ is healing virtue, and the Sun of Righteousness arises with healing beneath His wings to purge every evil and to make the nature new. When Jesus healed the sick of the palsy He said, Son, be of good cheer, thy sins are forgiven thee, showing that pardon and healing are joined together in His hand. May He speak comfortably to your hearts, forgive, restore, and make you whole in body and spirit.
So we commend your health, your relationships and your finances to Him who knows your need and will supply according to His wisdom and goodness. May He keep your minds in perfect peace as you stay your thoughts upon Him, and may your home be filled with that quiet trust which rests in His unfailing love.
Heavenly Father, we ask in the name of Jesus Christ that Thou wouldst set Thy holy protection over this family, guard their dwelling, their minds and their bodies, drive far from them all fear and anxious care, heal every infirmity, and cause Thy peace to rule in their hearts. Let Thy will be done among them and let Thy name be glorified in their lives. Amen.
