Prayer For Moving To A New Location
Dear Heavenly Father, my heart is full of joy and thanksgiving that I have trusted in Jesus as my Saviour. Thank You, Lord, that you died to pay the price for my sins. Thank You, that You went to the cross for me and took all the punishment that I deserve. Thank You, that You forgave me of my sins as a free gift of Your amazing grace. I praise and thank You for coming to earth as a Man and living a perfect life so that You could become the sacrifice for sin, the sacrifice for my sin, without which I would have remained dead in my trespasses and without hope in the world.
There are no words that are adequate to explain my thanks and praise to You. But Lord, I thank You for this new beginning, this fresh start when I can step out into the world, knowing that I have been saved and have been accepted into Your family as a child of God. Lord, I want to learn more and more about You and ask that day by day, You would open up my eyes to see You and my ears to hear You. Open up the scripture so that I may come to a deeper knowledge of You.
Thank You, Lord. Thank You for being my Father, and thank You for my new life in Christ which I have received by grace through faith. Thank You, that nothing can ever separate me from Your love, and thank You that I have an assurance that I will one day see You in heaven and know You, even as I am known. In Jesus' precious name,
Amen.
Thank You, Lord, for the beginning of a new year and as we step out into the unknown future, we pray that You would be with us, leading and guiding us, teaching and drawing us ever closer to each other and to Yourself. Thank You that Your steadfast love never ceases and that Your mercies are new every morning, great is Your faithfulness, O Lord.
Father, we know that these times in which we live are becoming fraught with difficulties and increasingly stressful, and yet Father our hope is in You, for You are our faithful God Who has promised to never leave us nor forsake us. Father, as we step onto the threshold of a new year, with it's inevitable problems and pain, I place my hand into Yours Lord, and trust You to lead me along the right way that I should go, for I know Father that there is no safer place to be than walking in fellowship with You.

Amen.
Thank You, Lord, for bringing me safely through another night and into the beginning this new day that You have made. Lord, I have no clue what today will bring, but I pray that this may be a day when you are lifted up in my life, a day when I walk in spirit and truth. Prepare me Lord, for all the eventualities that may happen. Help me to stand fast and to be salt and light to all those with whom I come in contact
Lord, I place today in Your hands and trust You to direct my day until I place my head back onto my pillow of sleep. I ask that whether in busyness or in quietude, Your will be done. Whether I am surrounded by crowds of people or remain in the solitude of my own company, I ask that You would be there to direct and govern. I pray that the words of my mouth and the meditations of my inner being, would be pleasing and acceptable to You throughout today, and may Your will be done in my life to Your honour and glory. In Jesus' name I pray,
Amen.
O God, today I offer myself anew upon the altar and pray as one prayed of old, Lord, I believe, help my unbelief.
He seemed to acknowledge that his faith was too weak. What he had was good but he desired a stronger faith.
So I pray today for a faith that will not falter, a faith that does not need to see.
Lord, as I offer myself anew today, help my faith grow stronger. In Jesus' name,
Amen.
Heavenly Father, I feel that I am stepping out onto the threshold of a completely new beginning with a total change in my lifestyle. Lord, I know that this is a wonderful opportunity that You have graciously opened up for me and I pray that You would be with me to lead and guide, as I seek to become accustomed to so many changes in my life.
I pray that You would remain ever close to me, and that I do not stray far from Your side or become lukewarm in my attitude towards the things of God. Help me to keep my eyes firmly fixed on Jesus and to trust all I say and do into Your capable hands. Provide I pray, all that I need to carry out the tasks and duties that I am called upon to do with grace and courage, and I pray that my joy would be firmly fixed in Jesus and that I may be strengthened with all power from above. In Jesus' name I pray,
Amen.
Dear Lord Jesus, we are moving to a different place and I am going to have to start at a new school and leave all my friends and the familiar places that I liked. I don't really want to move and feel a bit uneasy about having to make a completely new start in completely different surroundings. Lord, please take away this feeling of insecurity and fear, and I pray that You will be with me as I start this new school.
Help me to fit in and make some good friends, and help me as I adjust to the new surroundings and different teachers and styles of teaching. Lord, I pray that You will bring some good Christian friends into my life that are supportive and encouraging. And help me I pray, to be able to deal with all the new course work that I have to deal with May I work hard and settle in quickly and easily.
Thank You, that You have promised to be with me no matter where we go. Help me to place my trust in You completely and trust You in all things, for in You I have my trust. In Jesus' name I pray,
Amen.
Dear God, praise Your name that I have been so blessed to be invited to start this new job, and I thank You that You have heard my prayers. Lord, I am excited about the prospect of starting at this new place of work and I ask that You would prepare me in every way for the challenges that lie ahead. Lord, I know that we are called to do everything in life as, unto the Lord and although in the past I have not always done so, I pray that as I take up this new position, You would help me to live and work in a way that truly honours You.
Lord, I don't know what the people will be like that I will be working alongside, but I pray that You would use me to be salt and light in this new position. And Lord, I also pray that by Your grace there may be one or two work colleagues who know and trust You. Lord, I know that in everything we should praise and thank You, and so I praise and thank You Lord, for the provision of this new job. In Jesus' name I pray,
Amen.
Father, Your Word says that You will perfect that which concerns us. Your mercy and loving-kindness, O Lord, endure foreverforsake not the works of Your own hands. We bring to You our apprehensions concerning our relocation. We ask You to go before us
[to make the crooked places straight] in finding a new home.
Give us wisdom to make wise decisions in choosing the movers and packers best suited to handle our possessions. We have favor, good understanding, and high esteem in the sight of You and manwith the utility companies,
with the school systems, and with the bankswith everyone involved in this move.
Father, we thank You for supplying and preparing the new friends You want us to have. We are trusting You to direct us to a church where we can fellowship with like believers, in one accord, and where we are free to
worship and praise You and sing to You a new song.
Father, in the name of Jesus, we commit this move to You, knowing that You provide for Your children. We trust You and delight ourselves in You, and You will give us the desires of our hearts.
We make all these requests known unto You with thanksgiving, and the peace that passes all understanding shall guard our hearts and minds. You will keep us in perfect peace because our minds are stayed on You.
We trust in You, Father, with all of our hearts. We lean not unto our own understanding; but in all of our ways we thank You, Father, for Your blessing on this move.
In the name of Jesus, amen.
