A Blessing Prayer from Psalm 91
A Blessing Prayer from Psalm 91
I bless you with the security
That comes from dwelling in the shelter of the Most High.
I bless you with finding rest in the shadow of the Almighty.
I bless you with the Lord as your refuge, your place of safety.
The Lord is your God and you are trusting in Him.
I bless you with the deliverance (daily saving grace) that comes from the Lord!
His rescuing you from every trap
His protecting you from the fatal plague
His shielding you with His wings,
His sheltering you with His feathers.
His faithful promises as your armor and protection.
I bless you with not being afraid:
Of the terrors of the night
Of the dangers of the day
Of the plague that stalks in the darkness
Of the disaster that strikes at midday.
I bless you that no evil will touch you:
Though a thousand fall at your side
Though ten thousand are dying around you.
I bless you with seeing this with your eyes,
Seeing how the wicked are punished.
As you make the Lord your refuge and your shelter
I bless you with no evil conquering you
I bless you with no plague coming near your dwelling.
I bless you with His ordering His angels to protect you wherever you go.
I bless you with His angels holding you with their hands
To keep you from striking your foot on a stone.
I bless you with trampling down lions and poisonous snakes
I bless you with crushing fierce lions and serpents under your feet.
I bless you with the Lord’s own words:
I will rescue those who love me.
I will protect those who trust in my name.
When they call on me, I will answer.
I will be with them in trouble.
I will rescue them and honor them.
I will satisfy them with a long life and give them my salvation.
