A Prayer For The Protection Of Our Archdiocese

Christianity. Orthodoxy. Catholicism. Sense of life. Prayers.

Don't be anxious for your life, what you will eat, nor yet for your body, what you will wear. Life is more than food, and the body is more than clothing. Consider the ravens: they don't sow, they don't reap, they have no warehouse or barn, and God feeds them. How much more valuable are you than birds! Which of you by being anxious can add a cubit to his height? If then you aren't able to do even the least things, why are you anxious about the rest? Consider the lilies, how they grow. They don't toil, neither do they spin; yet I tell you, even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. But if this is how God clothes the grass in the field, which today exists, and tomorrow is cast into the oven, how much more will he clothe you, O you of little faith? Don't seek what you will eat or what you will drink; neither be anxious. For the nations of the world seek after all of these things, but your Father knows that you need these things. But seek God's Kingdom, and all these things will be added to you.

	A Prayer For The Protection Of Our Archdiocese

In the Name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, The Trinity, One in Essence and Undivided.

Lord, You promised that wherever two or more are gathered in Your Name, You will be in their midst. Hear us today as we unite our hearts in prayer to You, our Lord, God and Savior.

First of all, we ask for Your Divine Forgiveness and Absolution for any of our thoughts or actions that are contrary to Your Holy Teachings. Teach us Your Precepts so that our path may be enlightened by Your Holy Wisdom. Direct our steps so that we may walk with You, and abide in You, the True Vine and source of everlasting life, peace and joy.

We also unconditionally forgive those who have persecuted us up to this present day. We pray that You would send to those who persecute us, the gift of the Holy Spirit to gently soften their hearts and purge from them any grudge or thought of malice toward us, either imagined or real. Fill us also with the Holy Spirit so that our hearts may be softened and purified. Purge from us any grudge or thought of malice toward our persecutors.

We ask fervently for Divine Protection of THEOCUS; all its Churches; its Clergy, and all its people. We ask that You surround us with Your Holy Angels; encompassing us with a mighty spiritual fortress of Your Holy Protection and Light.

Help us to believe the truth, teach the truth, and live the truth as You taught us by the example of Your Holy Life, when You walked among us as God Incarnate. Bless our endeavors to serve You, the True and Living God in peace, love, and joy. Bless us to give freely of ourselves the very best of our efforts as an offering to You, our Master and Benefactor.

Bless THEOCUS, its Churches, its Clergy, and its people to grow and prosper. Help us to return to You; the Holy Master, the Talents You have entrusted to us with interest, so that we may be counted as worthy stewards of Your Holy Church on Earth. Grant us, Your true believing children peace, safety, Divine love, and Heavenly protection, now and ever, and unto the ages of ages.

Amen.
