Praying Over Your Home

Kim Potter ~ September 29, 2017 ~ https://anewthingministries.com/praying-over-your-home/

This week we have talked about cultivating the presence of God in your home. I believe the Lord wants to have His manifest presence in the home of every born-again believer. I believe He wants His presence to dwell with us, daily. I am sure that is what you want as well. 

Prayer is good. Worship is awesome. Studying the word is vital. All these things are great, however, nothing changes things like the presence of a Mighty God showing up on the scene. When His presence shows up and chooses to abide in your home, everything changes. I have seen it happen over and over again.

Today, I want to share some ‘sample’ prayers with you to pray over your home. As always, allow God to lead you in the way you pray over your home, these are only samples to give you a place to start. 

Sample Prayers to Pray Over Your Home

1. "Father in the name of Jesus I ask You to sanctify this home by Your Spirit, may Your Spirit flow freely through this home, unhindered at all times. I pray that Your angels would encamp about our home and keep it and us safe at all times from all harm. I thank You for Your divine protection over every room of this house. This house and everything in it is anointed by You, set apart unto You and sanctified by You, in Jesus name."

2. "Today, in Jesus name, I apply the anointing and the blood of Christ and I cleanse the spiritual atmosphere. I declare that Satan will NOT intrude in my home; I forbid his intrusion from this day forth. I close any and all doors that have been opened to the enemy and I seal them shut in the name of Jesus. I establish my home as a sanctuary and a place of protection by the anointing that destroys every yoke and removes every burden. I break every curse and remove every evil presence from my home by the anointing and the name of Jesus Christ. I sanctify the people who live here, the house, and everything that is within this home in Jesus name."

3. "I bind the spirit of infirmity and declare that it has no right to come through these doors, infirmity will not dwell in this house, this house is anointed and it belongs to God. I bind the spirit of tragedy and trauma and declare that these spirits as well as any other spirits from Satan will NOT come near my dwelling in Jesus name. I set boundaries in the name of Jesus and forbid the enemy to cross them, nothing and I mean nothing comes through these doors that is not of God. Nothing comes through these doors that is not the good, perfect and acceptable will of God for my life and the life of those who live here."

4. "I further declare that God’s blessings flow into this house daily, every room of this house is blessed by God. His blessings are pouring out to such a degree that we don’t have enough room to receive them. The blessing of prosperity dwells here. The blessing of health and wholeness reside here. The blessing of peace and unity dwells here. The blessing of increase dwells here. The peace of God is in this house at all times. The manifest presence of God saturates this home. All the blessings of God are DAILY poured out in my house. I declare it to be so, in Jesus name."

5. "I plead the blood of Jesus over this house, I declare it is blessed and set apart unto God." 

Keep in mind, this is just a sample, you may want to pray different scriptures over different rooms such as bedrooms, where your children sleep, there are many scriptures that you can apply for sweet sleep and peace…just let the Lord lead you in the way He would have you pray.

This week, we have given you some tools to cleanse your house spiritually and invite the presence of God to make His abode in your home. It is our hope, that He dwells in your home, tangibly from this week forth. We bless you and your home, in Jesus name. 

Prayer for Today: "Father, I thank you for blessing our homes, I thank you for making our homes your abiding place. We are so thankful and we give you praise for this, in Jesus name. Amen."
