This is how and why I pray Psalm 91
God gives His people the authority to declare His Word, and to speak it forth aloud. Job 22:28 tells us this: “You shall decree a thing, and it shall be established unto you, and light shall shine upon your ways.”
Psalm 91 for You and Your Family
Lord God, I confess that (Names of Family Members) dwell in the secret place of the Most High and they abide under the shadow of the Almighty.2 We will say of You, LORD, “You are our refuge and our fortress; Our God, in You we will trust.”
3 Surely You will deliver us from the snare of the fowler, and from the perilous pestilence.4 You will cover us with Your feathers, and under Your wings we shall take refuge; Your truth shall be our shield and buckler.
We will not be afraid of the terror by night, nor of the arrow that flies by day, nor of the pestilence that walks in darkness,
nor of the destruction that lays waste at noonday.
A thousand may fall at our sides, and ten thousand at our right hands; but it shall not come near us. 8 Only with our eyes shall we look, and see the reward of the wicked.
9 Because (Names of Family Members) have made the LORD, who is our refuge, even the Most High, our dwelling place, No evil shall befall us, Nor shall any plague come near our dwelling;
For He shall give His angels charge over (Names of Family Members), to keep us in all our ways.12 In their hands they shall bear us up, lest we dash our foot against a stone. 13 We shall tread upon the lion and the cobra, the young lion and the serpent we shall trample underfoot.
Because (Names of Family Members) have set their love upon You, therefore You will deliver us; You will set us on high, because we have known Your Name.
We will call upon You, and You will answer us;
You are with us in trouble; You will deliver us and honor us.
With long life You will satisfy us and show us Your salvation.”
(Thanks be to God!)
Your prayer using Psalm 91 is wonderful. Adding it to my arsenal and praising God, Whose Word does not return empty!
The PSALM 91 DECLARATION should be posted at the beginning of each thread.
Excellent prayer, Faith. Thanks.
