Shared Prayer

O Lord our God It is written that we may say of You, You are our refuge and our fortress, and in You we trust. Many of Your people feel exposed, pressured, and afraid, facing uncertain work, tense homes, or nights filled with worry. Teach us to speak faith, not panic, and to run to You first, not to human strength. Place Your protection over our minds, our families, and our steps, and keep us from the traps of the enemy. Let every anxious thought bow to Your truth, and let Your peace rule within us. Through our God we stand secure, because You are stronger than every threat. Thank You for being a safe place that does not fail, and for hearing even the weakest cry. Thank you Lord for hearing our cry. Amen.
