King David, a strong man of God, found strength in praying for God’s protection. Many of his Bible prayers in the book of Psalms provide a pattern of praying for God to protect us in frightening times that threaten our safety.
Psalm 140:1,
7 – a prayer of David
from the King James Version
Deliver me, O Lord,
from the evil man:
preserve me
from the violent man;
O God the
Lord,
the strength of my salvation,
thou hast covered my head
in the day of battle.
