Winston Churchill once said “We shape our homes then our homes shape us” – a quote I believe that resonates with many. Home is not a mere place of residence nor is it a simple roof over our heads. Home is a lived and living experience. It is where some of our most intimate memories are being formed and where our personalities grow. It is a place that many will carry in our hearts for generations. Hence, house blessing prayer is important to ensure that our homes are spiritually pure to protect us against the demon’s foothold on us. The power of our prayer is one of the greatest blessings from God. Therefore, we do not need to fear as we pray for spiritual coverage over our homes. 

However, our house blessing prayer should also include praying for the people living and visiting such that our house is a righteous home, a beacon of love, hope, and rest. After all, God curses the house of the wicked but blesses the house of the righteous (Proverbs 3:33). Let’s learn how to bless a house and challenge ourselves today to understand house blessing in a new way. Here are 15 house blessing prayers for you and your loved ones: 

1. A House Blessing Prayer

A home blessing prayer is essential. Regardless of whether it is a new home or a current one, we encourage everyone to bless their homes through prayer.

Lord, we give thanks for this house that You have provided for us. May You sanctify this house so that we may set it apart to use for Your glory. May this house become a holy temple of Yours and Your name be praised within these walls all day and night. We ask in reverence that Your will be done in this house. This house and household will serve You for all our days. Thank You, Lord, for blessing this house, Amen.
