Prayer for victory and protection

Lord,
I lift the flag of praise high and declare you are my king.
I walk boldly forward into kingdom lands and trust in you as my fortress.
I stand strong rooted in the goodness of your love and draw near to you.
I ride triumphantly upon your grace and thank you that the battle has already been won.
You are my king, my fortress, my strength and my redeemer.
Lord, I lift your name high above all others and worship you!

St. Patrick's Breastplate
("I Arise Today")

(excerpt)

Christ with me, Christ before me, Christ behind me,
Christ in me, Christ beneath me, Christ above me,
Christ on my right, Christ on my left,
Christ when I lie down, Christ when I sit down, Christ when I arise,
Christ in the heart of every man who thinks of me,
Christ in the mouth of everyone who speaks of me,
Christ in every eye that sees me,
Christ in every ear that hears me.

I arise today

Through a mighty strength, the invocation of the Trinity,
Through belief in the threeness,
Through confession of the oneness,
Of the Creator of Creation.

Elijah's victory prayer at Carmel

It happened at the time of the offering of the offering, that Elijah the prophet came near, and said, "LORD, the God of Abraham, of Isaac, and of Israel, let it be known this day that you are God in Israel, and that I am your servant, and that I have done all these things at your word. Hear me, LORD, hear me, that this people may know that you, LORD, are God, and that you have turned their heart back again."

Then the fire of the LORD fell, and consumed the burnt offering, and the wood, and the stones, and the dust, and licked up the water that was in the trench. When all the people saw it, they fell on their faces. They said, "The LORD, he is God! The LORD, he is God!"
