Prayer for a New House Blessing
Dear God,
We come before you today to bless this new home, which you have provided for us. We are grateful for this opportunity to start a new chapter in our lives, and we ask that you would bless this house and all who live here.
May this house be a place of peace, love, and joy. May it be a refuge from the storms of life, where we can find comfort and rest. May it be a place where we can grow in our faith, and where we can share your love with others.
We ask that you would bless each room of this house, and fill it with your presence. May the kitchen be a place of nourishment and abundance, where we can share meals and make memories together. May the living room be a place of warmth and hospitality, where we can gather and share laughter and stories. May the bedrooms be a place of rest and rejuvenation, where we can find peace and refreshment.
May this house be a place where we can grow and thrive, where we can pursue our passions and dreams, and where we can serve others. May it be a place where we can build strong relationships with each other, and with you.
We ask that you would protect this house from harm, and keep us safe from harm. May it be a place where we can feel secure and at peace, knowing that you are always with us.
We thank you for this new home, and for the blessings that you have given us. May we always remember to honor and glorify you in this place, and may we always be grateful for your love and provision.
Amen.
