Amen. This is a powerful and foundational prayer of protection, redemption, and surrender. To ask for the Blood of Jesus to cover your life is to appeal to the only power that can cancel sin's debt, break every chain, and provide a place of safety from the enemy's attacks.
This prayer is rooted in the great story of the Passover in Egypt, which was a foreshadowing of Christ's work:
"They are to take some of the blood and put it on the sides and tops of the doorframes of the houses where they eat the lambs... The blood will be a sign for you on the houses where you are, and when I see the blood, I will pass over you. No destructive plague will touch you when I strike Egypt."
- Exodus 12:7, 13 (NIV)
The New Testament confirms that the blood of Jesus is our ultimate protection and redemption:
"In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, in accordance with the riches of God’s grace."
- Ephesians 1:7 (NIV)
A Prayer for the Blood of Jesus to Cover You
Heavenly Father,
I come before You in the mighty name of Jesus. I acknowledge that I need a Savior and that without the shedding of blood, there is no forgiveness of sins.
Right now, I apply the precious, powerful, and sinless Blood of Jesus Christ over my entire life.
· I plead the Blood of Jesus over my spirit, soul, and body.
· I plead the Blood of Jesus over my mind, my thoughts, my emotions, and my will.
· I plead the Blood of Jesus over my past, my present, and my future.
· I plead the Blood of Jesus over my family, my home, my relationships, and my work.
· I plead the Blood of Jesus as a shield of protection against every attack of the enemy—every accusation, every temptation, every scheme.
Thank you, Jesus, that Your Blood redeems me, justifies me, cleanses me, and protects me. By faith, I declare that I am covered. When the enemy sees the Blood, he must pass over me.
I am safe and secure in You.
In Jesus' name, Amen.
A Poem: "The Blood That Covers Me"
"The Blood That Covers Me"
There is a blood that stains the ground,
Where grace and mercy can be found.
It did not flow from sinner's veins,
But from the One who took our pains.
It is the blood of God's own Lamb,
The great I AM,the great I AM.
It speaks a word,a better word,
Than any that has ever been heard.
So over my life, I now apply,
This blood that never runs dry.
A covering,a sacred seal,
A promise that is ever real.
Let it mark the door of my heart,
And set my life and home apart.
A sign for angel eyes to see,
That I am owned,I am made free.
Let it cleanse my conscience, make it pure,
A healing and a lasting cure.
Let it break the chains of guilt and shame,
As I now call upon His name.
The blood of Jesus covers me,
From every claim of enemy.
I stand redeemed,I stand forgiven,
Secure in Christ,and bound for heaven.
Walk in the confidence and peace that comes from being covered by the blood of Jesus. It is your legal standing before God and your spiritual protection against all evil. You are redeemed.
