Dear Lord Jesus,

In accordance with your word, I pray this prayer for …………….:

1 ………. who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty.

2 ………. will say of the LORD, “He is my refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom ………. trusts.”

3 Surely God will save ………. from the fowler’s snare and from the deadly pestilence.

4 God will cover ………. with His feathers, and under His wings ………. will find refuge; God’s faithfulness will be ………. ‘s shield and rampart.

5 ………. will not fear the terror of night, nor the arrow that flies by day,

6 nor the pestilence that stalks in the darkness, nor the plague that destroys at midday.

7 A thousand may fall at ……….’s side, ten thousand at ……….’s right hand, but it will not come near ………..

8 ………. will only observe with ……….’s eyes and see the punishment of the wicked.

9 If ………. makes the Most High ……….’s dwelling— even the LORD, who is ………. ‘s refuge—

10 then no harm will befall ………., no disaster will come near ……….’s tent.

11 For God will command His angels concerning ………. to guard ………. in all her ways;

12 God’s angels will lift ………. up in their hands, so that ………. will not strike her foot against a stone.

13 ………. will tread upon the lion and the cobra; ………. will trample the great lion and the serpent.

14 “Because ………. loves Me,” says the LORD, “I will rescue ……….; I will protect ………. , for ………. acknowledges My name.

15 ………. will call upon the Lord Jesus, and He will answer ………. ; the Lord Jesus will be with ………. in trouble, He will deliver ………. and honor ………..

16 With long life will the Lord Jesus satisfy ………. and show ………. His salvation.”

In Jesus name I pray. Amen.
