God Our Shield
he stores up sound wisdom for the upright;
he is a shield to those who walk in integrity,
guarding the paths of justice
and watching over the way of his saints.
Then you will understand righteousness and justice
and equity, every good path;
for wisdom will come into your heart,
and knowledge will be pleasant to your soul;
discretion will watch over you,
understanding will guard you. (Proverbs 2:7-11)
Father, what a comfort to know that you are a shield to those who walk in integrity, that you yourself guard the paths of the upright and watch over the way of your saints. I pray that ______ would walk through this summer under your protection. Store up sound wisdom for them. Let wisdom come into their heart and knowledge become pleasant to their soul, so that doing right is not a burden but a joy. Set discretion and understanding around them like watchmen, guarding them from choices that would harm them and steering them onto every good path. Be their shield, Lord — especially in the moments when no one else is watching. For your glory and their good, in Jesus’ name, amen.
