Because you have made the LORD your dwelling place-- the Most High, who is my refuge—no evil shall be allowed to befall you, no plague come near your tent. For he will command his angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways. On their hands they will bear you up, lest you strike your foot against a stone. You will tread on the lion and the adder; the young lion and the serpent you will trample underfoot.
Let me not be as Elisha's servant, unable to believe in Your protective power until his eyes were opened to see the myriads of angels surrounding his master and him. Give me the eyes of faith, the eyes that see the absolute certainty of Your promise that You will never leave me nor forsake me.
