Father, we take refuge under the cover of Your robe that fills the temple. You are our solid foundation when the earth around us shakes. You are our defense. You go out for the sake of Your beloved. You are our salvation and glory. We will not be moved, for You are our rock and our strength. It is not by our power that we cling to You, but by the might of Your powerful right hand that holds us securely. We bring You praise and honor in the name and authority of Jesus, our Lord and Savior, according to Your good and perfect will. Amen.
“My soul, wait silently for God alone, For my expectation is from Him. He only is my rock and my salvation; He is my defense; I shall not be moved. In God is my salvation and my glory; The rock of my strength, And my refuge, is in God.” (Psalm 62: 5-7 NKJV)
