Prayer For Home
Bless my little kitchen, Lord, and may it be a place where I work with grateful thanks for all the blessings You bring into it. May this little kitchen be a haven of peace and comfort, love and joy to all who pop in for a little chat, or who are in need of a word of encouragement. Keep me from foolish frettings but rather, may it become a place where all who enter through its door find a warm welcome, and may our conversation be seasoned with salt full of grace and truth.
Thank You for the supply of food that You lovingly provide for our daily sustenance. As I prepare the food, may I meditate on the beauty of Your person and the many precious promises that You have poured into our lives. And Lord, may we always gain our spiritual nourishment from Your Word.
As I stand at my little sink Lord, I thank You that You are as the pure living water of life. As I bake my bread and cakes, I bless You that You are the living Bread that was send down from heaven to nourish our hearts and to sustain our lives.
Bless my little kitchen Lord, and may all I say and do within these walls be done as unto You. In Jesus' name I pray,
Amen.
Loving Lord, I have a lot of money problems and outstanding bills and am not able to pay for all the repairs that are needed on my home to keep it secure. Lord, I know that You brought us to this place and I pray that in Your grace, You would keep the infrastructure of my home secure, until the finances can be found to do the necessary repairs.
Lord, protect the walls and the roof of my home, its doors and its window, and I pray that You would keep us warm as winter approaches and prevent anything from happening that will cause us additional expense.
Father, I know that I have not power to do this, but I know that You are a God Who cares for each of Your children. I pray that by Your grace You would grant this request. Lord, I know that Your Word is true. Help me to maintain my trust in Your promise to help in time of need. In Jesus' name I pray,
Amen.
Loving Lord, thank You for my home. I pray that it may be a place of peace and rest. May we close the door on every evil that would seek to enter unseen and disrupt its calm tranquillity, and may all that is spoken and done within its walls be pleasing in Your sight and honouring to Your name.
Keep all who live here from uttering careless words that can hurt or accuse, but rather may the angel of Your presence encamp within its walls and may Your wings of protection overshadow each one. Protect the hearts and minds of all who enter and leave here, and may no ungodly thoughts or selfish attitudes cross its threshold.
May the beauty of Your love stream through the hearts of all who enter its walls, so that our home is lit up with the love and grace that only comes from You, just as the golden sunshine streams in through the windows and dances around the room, giving light and warmth to all.
As we commune in fellowship together day-by-day, I pray that You will be present at our table as we eat, listen to our conversations, sit with us as we laugh and relax together, and remain with each one though the hours of darkness, so that we wake refreshed and ready to do your bidding. In Jesus' name I pray,
Amen.
Dear Heavenly Father, it was Joshua that proclaimed that, "as for me and my house we will serve the Lord." Father, that is my daily prayer that my home may be a place where You alone are Lord and You alone are worshipped and honoured.
I pray that each member of my household will choose to serve You as their God, for You alone are worthy of our praise and service. May each one of us seek to honour You all the days of our life.
Surround each member of this home with Your love and protection both during the day, and throughout the hours of darkness. Help each of us to love You with all our heart and soul and mind and spirit, and live our lives in a manner that truly serve and pleases You .
Bless each member of our home I pray, and Lord, wherever any of us go, may we all keep You as the centre of our lives. May each one be mindful of the love and grace that You have poured out on us, by sending Your Son to redeem our lives from destruction.
Thank You, Father, that You are our God.
Amen.
Dear Lord Jesus, we thank You for our home, which You have graciously provided for us. Lord, I am aware that You had nowhere to lay Your head. You had no place that You could call Your home when You walked this earth. Help me to hold the things of this world lightly, and not allow them to become of such importance that I start to look on them as a form of idol in my life.
Oh Lord, I know that my home is filled with many little treasures and keep-sakes that are very special to me, and I thank You for each one. But Lord, I also know that all I have has comes from You, and all that we own is a gift of grace from You. O Lord, help me not to cling tightly to the things of this world.
Father, I know that my true home is in heaven and that You have prepared a place for me there. Help me to keep the things of this life in their proper perspective. May I be wise and thankful for all that You have given me, but also to keep my heart in heavenly places. I look forward to the day when You will bring me into that wonderful home that You have prepared for me in heaven. In Jesus' name,
Amen.
Father,
We praise You for this fresh revelation today concerning our homes and the blessing we wish to bestow over them with this prayer. You are faithful to reveal so much more than we even knew we needed to pray for! And as the context of Your Love continues to unravel before our eyes, we pray that our hearts are open to receiving Your grace and truth.
We praise You for providing our dwelling place: a house, rented or owned, an apartment, condo, shelter, dorm room, bench, cover under a bridge. Wherever we lie to rest our heads, we thank You. Thank You for rest, restoration, and breath in our lungs. Bless and heal all those who seek refuge in hospitals, medical centers, hospice, and nursing homes. To breathe every day takes on a new meaning when we're brought to our knees with illness, accident, and age.
Forgive us for complaining about our circumstances, whether it be from our homes or in our ailments. We are still placed purposefully. Help us to live out every breath with the intention of opening the door to Gospel change, no matter what our door looks like or which ones we walk through each day.
As the disciples did fresh off their experience with Jesus, let us be willing to take risks for our faith for Christ to use our lives to widen the Kingdom family. Scripture reminds us that our names are written in heaven our forever home.
Bless this house! May it be every day changed by Your love, Jesus. Keep our homes safe. Protect our dwellings from fire, flood, wind, invasion, and theft. Let our houses be safe places to restore what has been lost and welcome mats for those who need Your love. We ask for a legacy of love that drifts down into the furthest generations of our family and the family of all that walk through our door.
In Jesus' Name,
Amen.
Spirit of God we welcome you into this place.
Come inhabit every room with your wonderful presence.
May all who enter this dwelling sense your everlasting peace and abundant joy,
And may all who live here know and experience the fullness of your eternal love.
We ask all this in the glorious name of Jesus, our saviour and protector.
Amen.
Jesus,
You are our fortress, this home has walls of love that are built on you.
You are our sanctuary, our family rests in the grace laid out in your words of truth.
You are our treasure, we hold one another in the faith, hope and joy that you sent.
You are our leader, we kneel at your feet and find protection, goodness and rest.
Thank you Lord.
Amen.
