This is an example of how I turn scripture into prayers.

Psalm 91

Lord, I dwell in Your shelter. I will remain secure and rest in Your shadow whose power no enemy can withstand. I say of You LORD, “You are my refuge and my fortress, My God, in whom I trust with great confidence, and on whom I rely!”

You save me from the trap of the fowler, and from the deadly pestilence. You cover me and completely protects me with Your pinions, and under Your wings I will find refuge;

Your faithfulness is a shield and a wall.

I will not be afraid of the terror of night, the arrow that flies by day, the pestilence that stalks in darkness, or the destruction (sudden death) that lays waste at noon. A thousand may fall at my side and ten thousand at my right hand, but danger will not come near me. I will only be a spectator as I look on with my eyes and witness the divine repayment of the wicked as I watch safely from Your shelter.

Because I have made You, who is my refuge, my dwelling place, no evil will befall me, nor will any plague come near my tent. You will command Your angels in regard to me, to protect and defend and guard me in all my ways of obedience and service. They will lift me up in their hands, so that I do not even strike my foot against a stone.

I will tread upon the lion and cobra; the young lion and the serpent I will trample underfoot.

Because I set my love on You, therefore You will save me; You will set me securely on high, because I know Your name. I confidently trust and rely on You, knowing You will never abandon me, no, never.

I will call upon You, and You will answer me; You will be with me in trouble; You will rescue me. With a long life You will satisfy me and You will let me see Your salvation

Psalm 91

91 He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High

Will remain secure and rest in the shadow of the Almighty [whose power no enemy can withstand].

2 I will say of the LORD, “He is my refuge and my fortress,

My God, in whom I trust [with great confidence, and on whom I rely]!”

3 For He will save you from the trap of the fowler,

And from the deadly pestilence.

4 He will cover you and completely protect you with His pinions,

And under His wings you will find refuge;

His faithfulness is a shield and a wall.

5 You will not be afraid of the terror of night,

Nor of the arrow that flies by day,

6 Nor of the pestilence that stalks in darkness,

Nor of the destruction (sudden death) that lays waste at noon.

7 A thousand may fall at your side

And ten thousand at your right hand,

But danger will not come near you.

8 You will only [be a spectator as you] look on with your eyes

And witness the [divine] repayment of the wicked [as you watch safely from the shelter of the Most High].

9 Because you have made the LORD, [who is] my refuge,

Even the Most High, your dwelling place,

10 No evil will befall you,

Nor will any plague come near your tent.

11 For He will command His angels in regard to you,

To protect and defend and guard you in all your ways [of obedience and service].

12 They will lift you up in their hands,

So that you do not [even] strike your foot against a stone.

13 You will tread upon the lion and cobra;

The young lion and the serpent you will trample underfoot.

14 “Because he set his love on Me, therefore I will save him;

I will set him [securely] on high, because he knows My name [he confidently trusts and relies on Me, knowing I will never abandon him, no, never].

15 “He will call upon Me, and I will answer him;

I will be with him in trouble;

I will rescue him and honor him.

16 “With a long life I will satisfy him

And I will let him see My salvation.”
