Pray over yourself

I invite you to pray Psalm 91 over yourself today: 

I dwell in the shelter of the Most High.  

I rest in the shadow of the Almighty.
God is my refuge and my fortress, my God in whom I trust.

He will save me from the fowler’s snare and the deadly pestilence. 

He will cover me with his feathers and under his wings I will find refuge. 

His faithfulness is my shield and rampart.

I will not fear the terror of the night, or the arrow that flies by day, or the pestilence in the darkness, or the plague that destroys at midday. 

NO terror, arrow, pestilence, or plague will come near me. 

I will observe with my eyes the punishment of the wicked. 

I claim the Lord as my refuge, the Most High my dwelling so no harm can come near me or overtake me.

God’s angels are commanded to guard me in all my ways and lift me up in their hands.

I will tread and trample on things that threaten me.

God loves me, will rescue me, and will protect me.  When I call on him he answers me because I acknowledge his name.  

God is with me in trouble and will deliver and honor me.  

He will satisfy me with long life and salvation.    

AMEN.
