PRAYER 

The Lord's Prayer

The prayer that teaches us to pray.

“This, then, is how you should pray: “ ‘Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name, your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us today our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one.’" - Matthew 6:9-13 NIV

House Blessing Prayer

How to Pray Over Your House for Spiritual Cleansing & Blessing

1. Remove any items that represent or invite evil into the house and get rid of them (if you’re not sure about an item, use the axiom, “when in doubt, throw it out”):
  • Pornography
  • Horror movies and novels
  • Dark or evil music: black metal, that which glorifies sexual immorality, drug use, murder/violence, etc.
  • Spiritual/evil games or items: Ouija boards, tarot cards, crystal balls, palm reading, psychic/new age books, etc. (anything that has to do with the spiritual that is not Christian)
  • Religious/spiritual items from anything that are not Christian: idols (carved religious figurines from other cultures), voodoo dolls, Buddha statues/figurines, dream catchers, books about satanism/occult, magic, new age, etc.

2. Pray the following prayer (or something similar in your own words) of cleansing, consecration, blessing, and protection OUT LOUD while standing somewhere in the home (perhaps the front porch, main door, or main living room):

Father God, I come before you knowing that the blood of Jesus presents me righteous before You. Thank you for the salvation, victory, and authority over evil that is mine in Jesus Christ! It is in the name of my LORD and Savior Jesus Christ I ask for your cleansing, blessing, and protection over this household. Thank you, Lord!

I renounce and repent of any sins, known or unknown to me, that have been committed here by anyone (including me or my family). I renounce and repent of any sinful items ever kept here. I renounce and repent of any sinful things that have ever been broadcast here in Jesus name. Father, please forgive any trespasses committed against you in this place.

By the blood of Jesus Christ, I bind every evil and unclean spirit that is in this house and command them to flee right now in the name of Jesus Christ. I renounce and reject any inch of this house and property that has been yielded or surrendered unto Satan and by faith I take back all authority over this property and surrender it to the Lord Jesus Christ.

In the name of Jesus Christ, I dedicate and consecrate this house to my Lord Jesus Christ and claim it is under His divine protection from the top of the roof to the bottom of the footing and everything in between. Again I command any evil spirit that has been present here or oppressing this household to leave now in Jesus’ mighty name!

Father, I ask in the name of Jesus Christ that you would surround this house and the property on which it stands with a hedge of protection. Surround our family and this property with your favor as with a shield on all sides, above, and below.

Father God, I ask that You send your powerful warrior angels to protect the Four Corners of this house and property, guarding everyone who lives within.

I ask that this house be consecrated with Your divine presence so that everyone who enters will be blessed in their heart, soul, and mind. May your love, joy, and peace be palpable in this place by the power of your Holy Spirit. May this be a place of rest and restoration. Thank you, Father, for the complete victory I already have in Jesus Christ. Let your Kingdom come, Your will be done on earth and in this home as it is in heaven. As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord! Amen.

3. Walk through every single room (bedrooms, bathrooms, kitchen, living room, entryway, basement, attic, etc.), standing in the center of each, and pray the following short prayer OUT LOUD:

In the name of Jesus Christ I cast out any unclean spirit form this room and forbid them from ever entering again. Father, I ask you to bless this room with your presence and that it would be a place of rest, joy, and peace. Amen!

4. Go to every door and window in every room in the home and pray this short prayer OUT LOUD (as an optional act of faith, anoint each doorframe and window with olive oil, representing Jesus’ blood, blessing, favor, and protection):

In the name of Jesus Christ I forbid any unclean or evil spirits or forces from entering this home. Father, send your angels to stand guard here. Amen!

5. Go to the end of your driveway (the entrance to your property) and pray this short prayer OUT LOUD:

In the name of Jesus I command any unclean or evil spirits to flee this property and forbid them from entering again. Father send your angels to stand guard here! Thank you for your protection and love! Amen.

My dear Lord Jesus, I come to you now to be restored in you, renewed in you, to receive from you all the grace and mercy I so desperately need this day. I honor you as my Sovereign, and I surrender every aspect and dimension of my life totally and completely to you. I give to you my spirit, soul, and body, my heart, mind, and will. I cover myself with your blood—my spirit, soul, and body, my heart, mind, and will. I ask your Holy Spirit to restore me in you, renew me in you, and lead this time of prayer. In all that I now pray, I stand in absolute agreement with your Spirit and with my intercessors and allies, by your Spirit and by your Spirit alone.

I love you, I worship you, I give myself over to you in my heart’s search for life. You alone are Life, and you have become my life. I renounce all other gods, every idol, and I give to you the place in my heart and in my life that you truly deserve. This is all about you, God, and not about me; you are the Hero of this story, and I belong to you. I ask your forgiveness for my every sin. I renounce my sins. I ask you to search me and know me and reveal to me where you are working in my life and grant to me the grace of your healing, deliverance, your holiness, and a deep and true repentance.

Heavenly Father, thank you for loving me and choosing me before you made the world. You are my true Father—my creator, redeemer, sustainer, and the true end of all things, including my life. I love you, I trust you, I worship you. I give myself over to you, Father, to be one with you in everything as Jesus is one with you. Thank you for proving your love by sending Jesus; I receive him and all his life and all his work which you ordained for me. Thank you for including me in Christ, for forgiving me my sins, for granting me his righteousness, for making me complete in him.

Jesus, thank you for coming to ransom me with your own life. I love you, I worship you, I give myself over to you to be one with you in all things—spirit, soul, and body, heart, mind, and will. I sincerely receive all the work and triumph in your cross, death, blood, and sacrifice, through which my every sin is atoned for, I am ransomed and delivered from the kingdom of darkness and transferred to your kingdom, my sin nature is removed, my heart is circumcised unto God, and every claim being made against me is disarmed this day. I now take my place in your cross and death, dying with you to sin, to my flesh, to this world, to the evil one and his kingdom. I take up the cross and crucify my flesh with all its pride, arrogance, unbelief, and idolatry [and anything else you are currently struggling with]. I put off the old man. Apply to me all the work in your cross, death, blood, and sacrifice. I receive it with thanks and give it total claim to my spirit, soul, and body, my heart, mind, and will.

I bring the blood and sacrifice of the Lord Jesus Christ over my life today, over my home, my family, my household, my vehicles, finances, over all my kingdom and domain.

I bring the cross, death, blood, and sacrifice of the Lord Jesus Christ to the borders of my kingdom and domain, and I stake it there in the name of Jesus Christ.

Jesus, I also sincerely receive you as my Life, and I receive all the work and triumph in your resurrection, through which you have conquered sin, death, judgment, and the evil one. Death has no power over you, nor does any foul thing. And I have been raised with you to a new life, to live your life—dead to sin and alive to God. I take my place now in your resurrection and in your life, and I give my life to you to live your life. I am saved by your life. I reign in life through your life. I receive your hope, love, faith, joy, your goodness, trueness, wisdom, power, and strength. Apply to me all the work and triumph in your resurrection; I receive it with thanks and I give it total claim to my spirit, soul, and body, my heart, mind, and will.

Jesus, I also sincerely receive you as my authority, rule, and dominion, my everlasting victory against Satan and his kingdom, and my ability to bring your Kingdom at all times and in every way. I receive all the work and triumph in your ascension, through which Satan has been judged and cast down, and all authority in heaven and on earth has been given to you. All authority in the heavens and on this earth has been given to you, Jesus, and you are worthy to receive all glory and honor, power and dominion, now and forever. I take my place now in your authority and in your throne, through which I have been raised with you to the right hand of the Father and established in your authority. I give myself to you, to reign with you always. Apply to me all the work and triumph in your authority and your throne; I receive it with thanks, and I give it total claim to my spirit, soul, and body, my heart, mind, and will.

I now bring the authority, rule, and dominion of the Lord Jesus Christ over my life today, over my home, my family, my household, my vehicles, finances, over all my kingdom and domain. I now bring the authority, rule, and dominion of the Lord Jesus Christ and the fullness of the work of Christ against Satan, against his kingdom, against every foul and unclean spirit—every ruler, power, authority, and spiritual force of wickedness, their every weapon, claim, and device. [At this point, I specifically name all foul and unclean spirits that I know have been attacking me, such as fear, doubt, accident, injury, death, the religious spirit, pride, arrogance, etc.] I send all foul and unclean spirits bound to the throne of Christ, together with every back-up and replacement, every weapon, claim, and device—by the authority of the Lord Jesus Christ and in his name. I command the judgment of the Lord Jesus Christ upon the heads of those that refuse to obey, and I send them to judgment, by the authority of the Lord Jesus Christ and in his name.

I now bring the authority, rule, and dominion of the Lord Jesus Christ and the fullness of the work of Christ against every foul power and black art—every hex, vex, and incantation, every spell, weave, web, veil, shroud, charm, and snare; against every ritual, sacrifice, and device; against every vow, dedication, and sacrifice, every word, judgment, and curse—written, spoken, unspoken, or transferred to me. I command them disarmed and broken by the authority of the Lord Jesus Christ and in his name.

I now bring the authority, rule, and dominion of the Lord Jesus Christ and the fullness of the work of Christ against every witch, cult, and coven, every channel of black arts to me. I cut them off in the name of the Lord; I send the glory of God to them to turn them in Jesus’ name.

I now bring the authority, rule, and dominion of the Lord Jesus Christ and the fullness of the work of Christ between me and every human being—their spirit, soul, body, their sin, warfare, and their household. I bring the full work of Christ between me [and now I name people that I’ve counseled or prayed for, family members, folks in crisis looking to me, etc.] I command their human spirits bound back to their bodies and their warfare bound to the throne of Christ in their life. I bring the full work of Christ between me and my household and all people, in the authority of Jesus Christ and in his name.

Holy Spirit, thank you for coming. I love you, I worship you, I trust you. I honor you as Lord. I receive all the work and triumph in Pentecost, through which you have come, you have clothed me with power from on high, sealed me in Christ, become my union with the Father and the Son, the Spirit of truth in me, the life of God in me, my counselor, comforter, strength, and guide. I honor you as Lord, and I fully give to you every aspect and dimension of my spirit, soul, and body, my heart, mind, and will—to be filled with you, to walk in step with you in all things. Fill me afresh, Holy Spirit. Restore my union with the Father and the Son. Lead me into all truth, anoint me for all of my life and walk and calling, and lead me deeper into Jesus today. I receive you with thanks, and I give you total claim to my life.

Heavenly Father, thank you for granting to me every spiritual blessing in Christ Jesus. I claim the riches in Christ Jesus over my life today, over my home, my family, my work, over all of my kingdom and domain. I bring the blood of Christ once more over my spirit, soul, and body, over my heart, mind, and will. I put on the full armor of God: the belt of truth, breastplate of righteousness, shoes of the gospel, helmet of salvation; I take up the shield of faith and sword of the Spirit, and I choose to be strong in the Lord and in the strength of your might, to pray at all times in the Spirit.

Jesus, thank you for your angels. I summon them in the name of Jesus Christ and instruct them to destroy all that is raised against me, to establish your Kingdom over me, to rebuild the shields and hedges of protection around me and my household, and to minister to me your ministry. I ask you to send forth your Spirit to raise up prayer and intercession for me. I now call forth the kingdom of the Lord Jesus Christ throughout my home, my household, my kingdom, and domain in the authority of the Lord Jesus Christ, giving all glory and honor and thanks to him.

In Jesus’ name, amen.

Consecration of Sleep Prayer

(Adapted from John Eldredge’s Bedtime Prayer)

My dear Lord Jesus, I come to you now to be restored in you, to be renewed in you, to take refuge in you. I honor you as my sovereign Lord, and I surrender every aspect of my life totally and completely to you. I give you my spirit, soul, and body, my heart, mind, and will. I cover myself with your blood, and I ask your Holy Spirit to restore me in you, renew me in you, and lead this time of prayer.

I proclaim the kingdom of God and the authority of the Lord Jesus Christ over my home (room) and all things in it.

• If you live in an apartment, use “apartment.” If you have only a room under your authority in someone else’s home, use “my room.” If you share a room, use “my bunk” or “my side of the room.”

I consecrate and sanctify my home (room) and everything in it to the Lord Jesus Christ and to the Kingdom of God. I bring the cross, resurrection, and ascension of the Lord Jesus Christ throughout my home tonight—through every object and furnishing, bed and bedding, all media and icons, all books and magazines, movies and music, toys and games, through the atmosphere in every room, throughout the ceilings, walls, floors, and all places in them, from the land beneath to the roof above and all around this home tonight.

I take my place in the cross, resurrection, and ascension of the Lord Jesus Christ. I now bring the authority of the Lord Jesus Christ and the fullness of the work of Christ against Satan and his kingdom. I bring the cross, resurrection, and ascension of Jesus Christ against every foul and unclean spirit—every ruler, power, authority, and spiritual force of wickedness. I command every foul and unclean spirit bound and banished from my home and from my household, with every backup and replacement, every weapon and device, in the authority of the Lord Jesus Christ and in his name.

I now bring the authority of the Lord Jesus Christ and the fullness of the work of Christ—his cross, resurrection, and ascension—against every foul power, witchcraft, and black art. I cut them off in the name of the Lord. No weapon forged against me shall prosper. I bring the cross and blood of Jesus Christ against every form of hex, vex, and incantation; against every spell, ritual, vow, dedication, and sacrifice; against every word, judgment, and curse. I command them broken and bound from my home this night in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ.

I now bring the authority of the Lord Jesus Christ and the fullness of the work of Christ between me and all people—their spirit, soul, and body, their sin, warfare, and corruption. I send every human spirit bound back to their body; I command all of their sin, warfare, and corruption bound back to the work of Christ in their life, and I forbid it to transfer to me.

I summon the angels of the Lord Jesus Christ and instruct them to build a shield of protection around me and my home. I ask your Holy Spirit to fill my home with your presence, with the peace of God and the love of Christ. I ask you to send forth your Spirit to raise up prayer and intercession for me this night. I now call forth and command the Kingdom of God and the authority, rule, and dominion of the Lord Jesus Christ throughout my home and throughout my household, all through the hours of this night and through the new day, in the authority of the Lord Jesus Christ and in his name.

Father, your word says, “Even while they sleep the Lord provides for those he loves” and that you “grant sleep to those you love.” Therefore, I ask you to provide for me while I sleep. Go before me and align circumstances and relationships for my day tomorrow to help me walk in your will, and please give me good sleep tonight that will restore strength and health to my heart, soul, body, and mind.

In the name of Jesus, I cancel all assignments of the Enemy against my family, household, and sleep tonight. I cancel all bad dream assignments against me and my family tonight and I cover myself and all the members of my household (list them by name) with the blood of Jesus.

Please give me good dreams from your Holy Spirit to guide us, encourage us, and strengthen my faith. I consecrate my sleep and rest to you.

In Jesus’ name, Amen.

PSALM 91 PRAYER (PERSONALIZED)


1 Because I live in the shelter of the Most High, I will find rest in the shadow of the Almighty.
2 This I declare about the LORD: He alone is my refuge, my place of safety; he is my God, and I trust him.
3 For he will rescue me from every trap and protect me from deadly disease.
4 He will cover me with his feathers. He will shelter me with his wings. His faithful promises are my armor and protection.
5 I will not be afraid of the terrors of the night, nor the arrow that flies in the day.
6 I will not dread the disease that stalks in darkness, nor the disaster that strikes at midday.
7 Though a thousand fall at my side, though ten thousand are dying around me, these evils will not touch me.
8 I open my eyes, and see how the wicked are punished.
9 Because I make the LORD my refuge, and I make the Most High my shelter,
10 no evil will conquer me; no plague will come near my home.
11 For God will command his angels concerning me, to protect me wherever I go.
12 They will hold me up with their hands so I won’t even hurt my foot on a stone.
13 I will trample upon lions and cobras; I will crush fierce lions, dragons, and demons under my feet!
14 The LORD says, “I will rescue _________ (your name) because (he/she) loves me. I will protect ___________ (your name) because (he/she) trusts in my name.
15 When __________ (your name) calls on me, I will answer; I will be with _____________ (your name) in trouble. I will rescue and honor ____________ (your name).
16 I will reward _____________ (your name) with a long life and give them my salvation.”

Thank you Jesus for all your precious promises that are all “Yes and amen” for me in Christ today!

AMEN! (so be it to me as you have said God!)

PURGING PRAYER

This is also a HEALING prayer because you’re asking God to let the parts of you die that need to die, so that YOU CAN LIVE for Him!

Pray this out loud:

Holy Spirit come right NOW and help me purge myself from what is dishonorable. Make me a vessel for honorable use. Set me apart as holy. Make me useful to the Master of the house; the house is my body—God’s temple! Lord, YOU are the Master of my body. Make me ready and prepared for every good work. I submit my will to YOU. I die to my own needs. I die to my own desires. I die to my own insecurities. I submit my body and mind to YOU. I submit my spirit and soul to YOU. I ask YOU to make me become less and less, so that YOU become GREATER AND GREATER. I invite you into every place of my very being and I ask you to take over every part of my life so that I no longer live, but instead it is YOU who lives in me. Holy Spirit, I GIVE YOU permission to fully have me. I fully submit my will to YOU. I ask you to reach out THROUGH ME and LOVE every person I ever cross paths with. And Lord, use that LOVE to fulfill YOUR GREAT COMMISSION. Use me as YOUR vessel to snatch souls from the fire, to heal the sick, to cast out demons and to change this world everywhere I go.

In Jesus’ name, AMEN
