Biblical Prayer Focus:
Psalm 33:20-22 Our soul waits for the LORD; he is our help and our shield. For our heart is glad in him, because we trust in his holy name. Let your steadfast love, O LORD, be upon us, even as we hope in you.

Praise God for His holy name. This means we exalt God for His character - Who He is. Give Him glory that because of His holiness we can trust Him - He is not fickle, running hot and then cold in His love. Ask for your protectorate, that they would sense upon them the comforting "weight" of the warm blanket of God's covenant-faithful love.
