Every day when we wake up, we should pray the morning prayer of protection so that God does not leave our side.
To complement this reading, I recommend our article on who is the author of the Bible and who wrote its books.
Every morning, people get up with the eagerness that a new day brings.
Mothers prepare breakfast for the family and make arrangements for the rest of the day.
Children get ready to go to school or some other educational institution.
And fathers worry about what their new day at work will be like.
Getting the kids to school, going to the office, dealing with clients, and so on.
Just like the mother, she has a lot of things to do before she goes to work.
This is the daily routine of most families, who have not even woken up when they are already concentrating on their multiple occupations.
But at no time do they remember to say the morning prayer of protection.
This is the first thing we should do when we wake up, to thank God for everything.
First of all, because He watched over us all night long, watched over our sleep, watched over our physical integrity.
And in the morning, He did not forget to wake us up so that we could enjoy a new day.
These are the main reasons why we should be grateful to God, and the best way to show it is by praying the morning prayer of protection.

How to pray the morning prayer of protection
We should not see prayer as a duty, but as a privilege that God gives us to talk to Him.
Can you imagine if we did not have the opportunity He gives us to tell Him what we are going through?
Who would we turn to to help and comfort us?
It is as if we had a problem at home and we did not go to our parents for help, knowing that they are the ones who can help us.
It pleases God that we talk to Him, that we seek His counsel through His Word.
For what is written in God’s Word is only advice to live a life according to His will.
To do what pleases him and to live in the shadow of his love and protection.
There are two things we should pray for every morning, for thanksgiving and for His daily protection.
First, let’s look at an example of a morning prayer for protection from enemies.
Prayer
Blessed heavenly Father
I thank You, Lord, for this new day You have given me today.
I thank You for watching over my home and my family every night.
And that You do not forget to wake us up at dawn.
Thank you that with each day you allow us to wake up and see
We see that your mercy is new every day
And your love for us is infinite
On this day that is beginning, beloved Father
I want to place my life and the life of my family before you.
Now, as we prepare to leave
I ask you to be your brave warrior before us
And protect us from all evil and danger.
Lord, cover us with your divine mantle
And let no power of danger or evil
Rise up over me or over my family.
I ask you, blessed Father, to guard my house while we are away
And let us return to our home in the evening.
Be Your Lord, the One who takes control of our lives this day
And do not fail to cover us with Your love
I ask all this in the name of the Father
and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.
Amen.
Every morning when we wake up and before we leave the house, we can pray this prayer.
With it we can face the dangers of the streets and all the difficulties that may come our way.
The Bible says in Psalm 91: “He who dwells in the shelter of God dwells in his shadow”.
So we should ask for God’s protection every morning.
Otra protección
The other very important request we should make with our morning prayer is for healing.
Every day we are exposed to new viruses and diseases that can affect our physical and emotional health.

We need to be healthy to face the responsibilities that each day brings.
That is why we pray to ask the Lord to have mercy on us.
And protect us from becoming seriously ill.
Prayer
Our Father
Who art in heaven
Hallowed be thy name
I thank you, O Lord, for this new day that you have given us.
And for your grace and your mercy that do not depart from us.
On this day that begins, beloved Father
I commend my life and the life of my family to you.
To preserve our health from every sickness and disease.
Your word says that by your stripes we are healed.
And I take hold of this word and I declare in the name of the Lord
That my family is healed and free from any virus or disease
From the streets or from our place of destiny
Cover us with your precious blood, beloved Father
So that nothing and no one can affect our health
And now that we are going out
Guard our going out and our coming in, Lord
That we may meet again at sunset
Thank you, Lord, for loving us first
And for giving us the confidence that we can count on you.
All this I ask in the mighty name of your son Jesus.
Amen.
You can also say your morning prayer every day.
Thank God for your life and ask Him to protect you from all evil.

God bless you.
