O Lord of Hosts,
I thank Thee for this day ~ for my life,
for my loved ones ~ for my family and friends!
Forgive me for everything I need be forgiven for.
O Lord,
I am not as wise as that crafty old serpent,
nor am I as cunning as the snake that nips at my heels.
O Lord God Almighty,
Send Saint Michael to defend me from the outside in.
Awaken the Christ within me!
Drive away the tempt to sin.
O Lord,
Penetrate the innermost midst of my soul.
Radiate an aura of love and protection around me
that I may go forth in confidence,
learning to trust Thee more and more,
with every step I take, thus increasing my faith in Thee
day after day, hour after hour, and minute by minute.
Whatever Thy will, let it be ~ I will forgive Thee.
Deliver me, defend me, and save my soul, O Lord!
Truly in the name of Jesus Christ, I pray.
Amen

Saint Michael the Archangel,
defend us in battle;
be our protection against the wickedness and snares of the devil.
May God rebuke him, we humbly pray:
and do thou, O Prince of the heavenly host,
by the power of God,
thrust into hell Satan and all the evil spirits
who prowl about the world seeking the ruin of souls.

Radiate an aura of love and protection around me

That’s my favorite part to pray, Susie. Thank you!
🙂 God bless you all throughout the year of our Lord, 2012!
Hello Uncle Tree, Many thanks for your visit and comment.. What a beautiful blog you have here.. I know I have prayed often to Archangel Michael to cut the cords that bind on more than one occasion.. His Warrior sword of Truth has helped me face many an inward battle..
Long may your Light shine… Blessings.. ~Dreamwalker
Thank you, Sue, for returning my visit, and thank you for
the compliment, too! I enjoyed my trip into your dreamland.
I wish you many fulfilled achievements during the coming year!
God bless you and your work! You have much to teach.
Peace to you today, Uncle Tree 🙂
How funny! Or, perhaps knot. There may have been more
unconscious reasons than I thought for this post, and
these two paintings. Perhaps, my little neck of the woods
needed to be protected from Pan. I now hear he’s gone rogue
on me and my woody brethren and all the creatures that
dwell herein. Dear friends, send loving thoughts my way.
Hanging On Tree’s Every Word: O Lord, allow your Heavenly
Angel, Michael, to hang around with ol’ Uncle Tree for awhile.
This prayer has suddenly gained in significance, or so it seems.
I implore Thee, please, keep me and my family safe, healthy and
accident-free. We’re having our Christmas tomorrow – for good
reason – for Christ’s sake. I pray Your Will makes it so.
In Jesus’ name, I pray. Amen
Yes Archangel Michael answers bringing battalions of angels with him when a major battle needs to be won on this planet and through all of creation. Not for the simple demon cleaning though-major!
Such power is available with our prayers, We have an Awesome God that hears and answers our prayers!
Thank you, good sir, for visiting.
You say it like you know it. Your faith is strong.
Maybe, someday, we will be allowed to follow
Saint Michael into battle. For real.
Thank you, my darling Caro! 🙂 Since you are so very dear to me, I have asked the Lord each morning to do the seemingly impossible, by extending or recreating that beautiful rainbow aura of love and protection so that it encompasses both you and your daughter as well. You have my heart, Queen Willow, and you mean the world to me. ❤ It feels really good to be genuinely loved for the tree dude I am. Huggerzzz, Sir Willow
Treemendously, I love thee, fabulous lady, star of my sky!
Most graciously, I thank thee, generous lover, pearl of my eye.
Luvz and hugz and prayerz and kissiez comin’ at ya right now! ❤
I cherish you, darling! 🙂 You light up my life.
