This is the cry of a heart that knows its only safety is in the shelter of His sacrifice.
"Blood of Jesus, cover me."
The Scripture That Promises This Covering:
Exodus 12:13: "The blood shall be a sign for you, on the houses where you are. And when I see the blood, I will pass over you, and no plague will befall you to destroy you."
Revelation 12:11: "And they have conquered him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony."
Ephesians 6:11-13: "Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil."
Psalm 91:4: "He will cover you with his pinions, and under his wings you will find refuge; his faithfulness is a shield and buckler."
What the Blood Covers:
The Blood Covers... So That You Are...
Your sin Forgiven
Your shame Redeemed
Your guilt Cleansed
Your past Made new
Your mind At peace
Your heart Protected
Your home Sheltered
Your family Kept
Your future Secured
A Prayer of Covering:
"Precious Lamb of God,
I come under the covering of Your blood.
Not my righteousness, but Yours.
Not my strength, but Yours.
Not my protection, but Yours.
Cover me—
my mind, that every thought be brought captive to Christ.
My heart, that it be guarded with perfect peace.
My body, that it be a temple of the Holy Spirit.
My home, that it be a place of safety and peace.
My family, that they be kept in Your care.
My going out and my coming in,
from this time forth and forevermore.
When the enemy accuses,
I plead the blood of Jesus.
When fear rises,
I plead the blood of Jesus.
When temptation comes,
I plead the blood of Jesus.
When darkness surrounds,
I plead the blood of Jesus.
For the blood of the Lamb
is a shield before me,
a banner over me,
a covering upon me.
Let no weapon formed against me prosper.
Let no plague come near my dwelling.
Let no scheme of the enemy touch me.
I am hidden in the cleft of the Rock.
I am covered by the blood of the Lamb.
I am safe in the shelter of the Most High.
Blood of Jesus, cover me.
Blood of Jesus, keep me.
Blood of Jesus, set me apart as Yours.
In Jesus' mighty name,
Amen."
The Promise of the Blood:
The same blood that bought you now covers you. The same sacrifice that saved you now protects you. The same love that poured out for you now shelters you.
When the angel of judgment passed over Egypt, the blood on the doorposts was the only thing that mattered. Not the goodness of the people inside. Not their strength or preparation. Just the blood.
And today, the blood is still speaking. Still covering. Still protecting. Still declaring over you:
"This one is Mine."
Blood of Jesus, cover me.
You are covered. You are safe. You are His.
