The Model Prayer #6 - The Prayer for Protection

Temptation can feel confusing because God tests His people, yet He never urges anyone to sin. Satan seeks their fall, while God uses trials to refine them and provides a way to endure. This prayer belongs to the whole church. Prosperity can breed self-reliance, while hardship can feed bitterness and pride, so Christians must remove what keeps drawing them towards sin. Jesus faced Satan without sin, stood in His people's place, and gives them strength by His Spirit to resist and return to their Father. Bible Reference: Matthew 6:5–15 Preacher: KJ Tromp
