Because you have made the Lord your dwelling place — the Most High, who is my refuge — no evil shall be allowed to befall you, no plague come near your tent.
— Psalm 91:9-10 ESV

Today's Prayer

Lord, I pledge allegiance to You and to Jesus, the Lamb of God, Your only Son. I will live in Your Holy Word and make Your commandments part of my very nature. Thank You for being a place of refuge for all who make this sort of commitment. Thank You for delivering me from the evil beings in this world who pursue me to cause me harm. Deliver me also, Lord, from plague and disease so I can serve You. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
