I would be a nervous wreck if I didn’t know Christ is keeping my children safe in His protective care. I pray for the safety and protection of my children multiple times every day.
Communing with Christ gives me peace like nothing else.
I wrote a prayer for my children using the Scriptures in Psalm 91. I hope you will pray this prayer over your children.
LORD,
I pray that (child’s name) will always dwell in the shelter of the Most High and rest in the shadow of the Almighty.
May he say of the Lord, “He is my refuge and my fortress, my God in whom I trust.”
I trust You, Christ, to save my child from the deadly pestilence. Please cover him with Your feathers, and keep him under Your wings where he will find refuge, and let Your faithfulness be his shield and rampart.
Help my child not to fear the terror of night, nor the arrow that flies by day, nor the pestilence that stalks in the darkness, nor the plague that destroys at midday.
A thousand may fall at his side, ten thousand at his right hand, but it will not come near him because You are with him.
Let (child’s name) make the Most High his dwelling. May You be his refuge. Let no harm befall him; let no disaster come near him or his home.
Christ, please command Your angels concerning my beloved child to guard him in all his ways. Let Your angels lift him up in their hands, so that he will not strike his foot against a stone.
Let him love You with his whole heart and trust You fully. Lord, please rescue and protect him as he acknowledges Your name.
May (child’s name) call upon You, and may You answer him. I trust You to be with him in trouble. I trust You to deliver him and honor him. I ask You to bless him with long life and satisfy him and show him Your salvation. I pray in Your name, Christ. Amen. (Written by Amy V., using the NIV Bible, October 31, 2013)
May Christ fill your heart with peace as you pray for your children.

This verse is the only way I have survived all these years without having you under my roof. I have prayed it for me and the both of you amazing strong souls that God blessed me with as my children/teenagers. Words can’t describe how much I admire you’re strength and steadfast determination to continue to your best all of these years. That is why I will nevertheless give up on the hope to have you both back one day even if you’re old or in college.. You are my heartbeats and I’m so blessed to be able to say that you’re both mine! I’m so proud of you Kylah Summer and Austin Kurt❤️ Love Mom ~ Psalm 91
This was written right at the same time when we were separated .. My IG shows the date as the same month and year from my post of us at the park by my house on that huge round jungle gym.. 🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻 #Those who #Dwellintheshelterofthealmighty #Ourstory #iloveGodsomuch
Thanks a lot for the prayer Amy. This really makes me feel that my little one is safe all the time. Along with my daughter’s name I’ve included my husband’s name too. Every time I read the prayer I strongly feel that they are protected and they are guided. God bless you!!
Tanuja, I am very thankful to hear that you are praying the Psalm 91 prayer for your daughter and husband. May Christ keep all of you in the shadow of His wings. Grace and peace to you!
