Prayer of Protection

General Protection

Psalm 55:9 

Destroy, O Lord, and divide their tongues: for I have seen violence and strife in the city.  

Dear God you promised that you will always protect me so that you may complete the work you began in me. According to your word in Psalm 138:7-8,

7 When I am surrounded by troubles, you keep me safe. You oppose my angry enemies 

and save me by your power.

8  You will do everything you have promised; Lord, your love is eternal. 

Complete the work that you have begun. 

Psalm 71:1-3, 6, 24

1 Lord, I have come to you for protection; never let me be defeated!

2Because you are righteous, help me and rescue me. Listen to me and save me!

3 Be my secure shelter and a strong fortress to protect me; you are my refuge and defense. 

6 I have relied on you all my life; you have protected me since the day I was born. I will always praise you. 

24  I will speak of your righteousness all day long, 

because those who tried to harm me have been defeated and disgraced. 

Psalm 46:1

God is our shelter and strength, always ready to help in times of trouble. 

Protection for my Home and Dwelling Places

Revelation 21:27

27 But nothing that defiles or profanes or is unwashed shall ever enter it, nor anyone who commits abominations (unclean, detestable, morally repugnant things) or practices falsehood, but only those whose names are recorded in the Lamb’s Book of Life. 

May the love of God fill those entering my home and dwelling places. May the peace of God rest upon their souls, in Jesus' name.

According to Revelation 22:3

3 There shall no longer exist there anything that is accursed (detestable, foul, offensive, impure, hateful, or horrible). But the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it, and His servants shall worship Him [pay divine honors to Him and do Him holy service]. 

Protection of my Personhood

Psalm 91:9-13

9 Because you have made the Lord your refuge, and the Most High your dwelling place,

10 There shall no evil befall you, nor any plague or calamity come near your tent.

11 For He will give His angels [special] charge over you to accompany and defend and preserve you in all your ways [of obedience and service].

12 They shall bear you up on their hands, lest you dash your foot against a stone.

13 You shall tread upon the lion and adder; the young lion and the serpent shall you trample underfoot.

Psalm 64:1-2

1 Hear my voice, O God, in my complaint; guard and preserve my life from the terror of the enemy.

2 Hide me from the secret counsel and conspiracy of the ungodly, from the scheming of evildoers.

Psalm 86:10-13

10 For You are great and work wonders! You alone are God.

11 Teach me Your way, O Lord, that I may walk and live in Your truth; direct and unite my heart [solely, reverently] to fear and honor Your name.

12 I will confess and praise You, O Lord my God, with my whole (united) heart; 

and I will glorify Your name forevermore.

13 For great is Your mercy and loving-kindness toward me; and You have delivered me from the depths of Sheol [from the exceeding depths of affliction].

Psalm 54:4

Behold, God is my helper and ally; The Lord is the sustainer of my soul [my upholder]. 

2 Timothy 4:18

18 [And indeed] the Lord will certainly deliver and draw me to Himself from every assault of evil. He will preserve and bring me safe unto His heavenly kingdom. To Him be the glory forever and ever. 

In Jesus' Name we pray. Amen (so be it).
