Evil is all around us, and it is very easy to fall into its nets. That is why it is important to constantly seek protection. But what protection against evil? Good is not only the opposite of evil, but it is also stronger than evil. By doing good, you therefore ward off evil. If you make God your protection , no evil will be able to touch you.

To enjoy God's protection , all you have to do is ask Him. A simple prayer can provide you with effective protection against evil. You can also ask for protection for your friends and family. No matter the nature and magnitude of your request, if you pray sincerely , you have every chance of being granted it.

The particularities of a traditional African prayer

The African continent has experienced historical and cultural setbacks. Indeed, many African countries experienced Christianity in parallel with a process of colonization. For some of them, this allowed Christianity to insert itself very easily into the local culture. This is how prayers mixing African traditions and Christian values were able to emerge.

A traditional African prayer seems to have a powerful and immediate effect. We tend to think that this type of prayer could be more effective because of its traditional nature. This is where the real particularity of an African Christian prayer lies. The traditional side and the ancestral side will give more strength to the prayer. It is therefore an excellent way to ask for God's protection. If you wish, you can very well use a traditional African Christian prayer to protect yourself and your family. If you believe in it, it could even be more effective than an ordinary prayer.

“ Creator God, I place my life in your hands. I trust in you and hope for your protection in return. I live in a world where everything seems dark to me. If not for you, I have no one to turn to. Protect me from the vices of this world. Guide me to the right path. Protect me from spells and evil spells. Protect me from sorcerers who try to block my success. Protect me from the devil and his malicious plans. I ask for your protection for me and my family. Your power is immense. Evil will have no hold on me if you protect me. My family will be safe if they accept you as their protector. You gave us your beloved son to save us. You offered him as a sacrifice so that we could inherit eternal life. Lord, teach me to know this love. Teach me to love my family in the same way. Send us the Holy Spirit to enlighten us in our choices and decisions. If it is your will, I will be heard. Amen.”

“Evil is all around us. The darkness is gaining ground. The devil has devised a wicked plan to drag us into the depths of hell. Lord, enlighten us with your holy light. As with our ancestors, teach us to be amazed by your deeds. As with our ancestors, teach us to appreciate your goodness. In this way, we can enjoy your blessing. In this way, we can take shelter under your wing and enjoy your protection. We have lived in darkness for too long. We need your light now. Your light will drive away evil and set us on the right path.”
