My Children Take Scripture Ask God to Help You Select Then Combine them 4 a Prayer
Father,
May your eyes be open and your ears attending to the prayers made in this place.
Consecrate this home, so that your name will be known here forever. Please make it a house of prayer. A place of grace. A dwelling where your Spirit is pleased to rest upon.
May the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ. The love of God and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with all who enter this home that You have provided for us!
Lord, please bless this household of your servants and all that belongs to us. Help us to move about here with humility, gentleness, with patience. Bearing with one another in love.
Make us to abide peacefully within the boundaries of these walls and give us rest on all sides with neither adversary or misfortune.
Help help us who reside here to be kind to each other, tenderhearted, forgiving each other daily.
In our anger, don't let us sin, nor let the sun go down before we have dealt with the cause of it! Make us to confess our sin of anger to one another and to pray for one another, so that this home will daily be a place of healing, not strife. Help us to not use harsh words to each other and let our answers be soft.
By your grace, we will lie down in peace and be blessed when we come and leave and help us not give a foothold to the devil, by unwholesome talk towards each other.
Finally, today Lord we ask Your grace to remind and help in praying this for our children, friends, neighbors and enemies and it is to You Father, through your Son Jesus and by the power of the Holy Spirit and in accordance with your will that we make this request today, with thanks!
Amen
