Back in 2011 and 2012, I was dealing with a lot of fear. One of the fears was protection for my children.
I had to come to a place of knowing that I am limited in my ability to protect my children and that God is the only one who can protect them.
To deal with this fear, I spent six months listening to Kenneth and Gloria Copeland’s teachings, “Under His Shadow.” A teaching on Psalms 91. And listen to “Victory over Death” by Keith Moore.
Every day, I pray for the blood over my children, for angels to surround them, and for Psalms 91 over them. And most of all, giving all my praise and thanksgiving to God for protecting them. There are countless testimonies of God protecting them, from possibilities of accident knife wounds from cooking to possibilities of fatal car accidents. Here are a couple of their testimony.

Thank the Lord for watching over Brody and I today! Driving down the highway and we hydroplane at 70 MPH, smashed into the highway divider, bounce the front end of the car about 2 feet into the air, and the we came to a stop. We pulled off at the next exit and got out to see what the car look like. To our surprise we couldn’t find a scratch on the car. Thank you Lord for watching over us today!
My daughter, Kelaiah, on 8-5-16 in her own words.
I know people always say you’re better off hitting the deer than swerving. But when it comes down to it your first reaction probably isn’t gonna be “oh I need to simply hit this deer.” Or at least in my case it wasn’t, I never even saw the deer coming it just jumped out in front of me. Long story short: I lost control of my car in the process of trying to avoid the deer and my car ended up in the ditch. The front end must’ve caught and swung my back-end over. Everything happened so fast but I remember thinking to myself within seconds before hitting the ditch that I just needed to relax and everything was going to be ok, I thank God for that. The air bags went off but they didn’t even touch me. I was able to step out of my car completely fine, without a scratch or bruise. If my car had gone off the road any sooner, then it would’ve gone down a steep slope into a field and chances are my car would’ve rolled. I’m so thankful and lucky things weren’t worse than they are.
Two days before my daughter’s accident, I was up in the night praying for her in the spirit, for I saw her pinned between a tree and her car.
There have been other times when the Holy Spirit would prompt my heart to pray for them or one of them precisely.
It’s so crucial for us parents not to get into fear about the welfare of our children but to be diligent daily, thanking our Heavenly Father for protecting our children, praying for the blood of Jesus over them, and for Angles to surround them to protect, defend, and prepare their pathway. I thank the Lord with all my heart for His daily protection. He is so faithful and true. I fall in love with Him daily.
You, too, can walk in peace knowing that your kids are protected. It’s through God’s grace and love and through our faith receiving it and lining up our daily confession of His word that brings it into manifestation. It’s God’s Grace and our Faith working together.
