We are grateful for the opportunity to pray with you and offer biblical guidance. First, we want to address the use of the phrase Archangel Michael to protect. While angels are indeed God's messengers and protectors, we as Christians should seek God's protection and not focus on or pray to angels. It is God who sends angels to watch over us, and our prayers should be directed to Him alone. As it says in Psalm 91:11 WEB, For he will give his angels charge over you, to keep you in all your ways.
We notice that Jesus' name is not mentioned in the prayer request. The Bible is clear that it is only through Jesus Christ that we have access to God and there is no other name by which we can be saved.
The Hebrew word for salvation is Yeshua which is rendered Jesus in English. It is important to understand that if we specify Jesus then we are saved. If we call on the Archangel Michael for protection, how do we know he will answer? But Jesus already answered every prayer request we could ever ask of Him by dying on the cross for our sins and resurrecting for our salvation. Jesus said, "Whatever you ask in my name, I will do it so that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you ask me anything in my name, I will do it." (John 14:13-14) We must be careful not to fall into the trap of praying to anyone or anything other than God whose name is Jesus.
Let us pray with you.
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, seeking Your forgiveness, mercy, and salvation. We ask that You forgive sins and grant salvation. We trust in Your word that says, if we confess with our mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in our heart that God has raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart man believes resulting in righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made resulting in salvation. (Romans 10:9-10 WEB)
We also lift up the need for healing back legs lungs that walking can be restored. We trust in Your word that says, by his stripes we are healed. (Isaiah 53:5 WEB)
Father, we also pray for protection salvation to ### and ###. We ask that You surround them with Your hedge of protection and that You guide their steps. (Psalm 32:8 WEB)
Lord, we pray for good friends to do domestica work and find a good home. We trust that You will supply every need according to Your riches in glory in Christ Jesus, and We pray for the right people to come into life to be a blessing and a help. (Philippians 4:19 WEB)
Father, we ask all these things in the precious name of Jesus, amen.
We encourage you to study the Bible and grow in your relationship with Jesus. It is through Him that we have life, and life abundantly. (John 10:10 WEB) Trust in Him, and He will never fail you.
We will review this post because it needs to exclude the request to pray for an angel to protect.
