A Prayer of Protection From Psalm 91

Our Covenant of Protection

Father, I thank you and praise You that I dwell in the secret place of the Most High and that I shall remain stable and fixed under the shadow of the Almighty (Whose power no foe can withstand). I will say of You, Lord, “You Oh, Lord are my refuge and my fortress, My God and on You I lean and rely, and in You I confidently trust!”

For You will deliver me from the snare of the fowler and from the deadly pestilence. You have covered me with Your feathers and under Your wings shall I trust and find refuge. Your truth and Your faithfulness are my shield and buckler.

I shall not be afraid of the terror of the night, nor of the arrow (the evil plots and slanders of the wicked) that flies by day, nor of the pestilence that stalks in darkness, nor of the destruction and sudden death that surprise and lay waste at noonday.

A thousand shall fall at my side and ten thousand at my right side but it shall not come near me. Only a spectator shall I be (inaccessible in the secret place of the Most High) as I witness the reward of the wicked.

Because I have made You, Lord, my refuge, and the Most High my dwelling place, there shall no evil befall me, nor any plague or calamity come near my tent. For You have given Your angels especial charge over me, to accompany, defend and preserve me in all my ways of obedience and service. They shall bear me up on their hands, lest I dash my foot against a stone.

I shall tread upon the lion and the adder. The young lion and serpent shall I trample underfoot. Because I have set my love upon You, You will deliver me. You will set me on high because I know and understand Your name.

I have a personal knowledge of Your mercy, love, and kindness. I trust and rely on You, knowing You will never forsake me, no, never. I shall call upon You and You will answer me. You will be with me in trouble. You will deliver me and honor me. With long life You will satisfy me and show me Your salvation!
