We come before the Lord with hearts lifted in faith, knowing that He alone is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Your request for protection over your family from death and for freedom in your new home is deeply important, and we stand with you in prayer, trusting in the power of the name of Jesus Christ, for there is no other name under heaven by which we must be saved. It is only through faith in Jesus that we have access to the Father, and it is in His name that we boldly approach the throne of grace.
First, we must address that your request does not invoke the name of Jesus, which is essential for our prayers to be heard by God. The Scriptures remind us in John 14:6, *"Jesus said to him, 'I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me."* Additionally, in John 16:23-24, Jesus tells us, *"Most certainly I tell you, whatever you may ask of the Father in my name, he will give it to you. Until now, you have asked nothing in my name. Ask, and you will receive, that your joy may be made full."* We urge you to always pray in the name of Jesus, for He is our mediator and the only path to the Father.
We also notice the phrase "free from which craft" in your request. If this refers to any involvement in occult practices, witchcraft, or supernatural influences that are not of God, we must strongly rebuke this in the name of Jesus. The Bible is clear in Deuteronomy 18:10-12: *"There shall not be found with you anyone who makes his son or his daughter to pass through the fire, one who uses divination, one who practices sorcery, or an enchanter, or a sorcerer, or a charmer, or someone who consults a spiritist, or a fortune teller, or a necromancer. For whoever does these things is an abomination to Yahweh."* If there has been any participation in such things, we urge you to renounce them immediately, repent, and turn wholly to Jesus Christ for cleansing and protection. Acts 19:18-19 shows us the power of turning away from darkness: *"Many also of those who had believed came, confessing, and declaring their deeds. Many of those who practiced magical arts brought their books together and burned them in the sight of all. They counted the price of them, and found it to be fifty thousand pieces of silver."*
Now, let us lift your family and your new home to the Lord in prayer.

Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty and holy name of Jesus Christ, seeking Your divine protection and favor. Lord, we ask that You surround this family with Your hedges of protection, shielding them from every attack of the enemy, including the threat of death. Your Word declares in Psalm 91:7-10, *"A thousand may fall at your side, and ten thousand at your right hand; but it will not come near you. You will only look with your eyes, and see the recompense of the wicked. Because you have made Yahweh your refuge, and the Most High your dwelling place, no evil shall happen to you, neither shall any plague come near your dwelling."* We claim this promise over this family, Lord, and ask that You guard them from all harm and danger.
Father, we pray for this new house, that it would be a place of peace, safety, and godly influence. We ask that You cleanse it from any ungodly influences or spiritual darkness that may have been present before. Let this home be filled with Your presence, Your light, and Your truth. We declare that as for us and our houses, we will serve the Lord (Joshua 24:15). May this home be a sanctuary where Your name is honored, where Your Word is taught, and where Your love abounds.
Lord, if there has been any involvement in occult practices or anything that does not align with Your Word, we ask for Your forgiveness and cleansing. We rebuke every ungodly influence in the name of Jesus and command all darkness to flee. Let Your Holy Spirit fill every corner of this home and every heart in this family. We pray for a fresh anointing of Your peace and joy to rest upon them.
Father, we also ask that You provide for this family in every way—spiritually, emotionally, and physically. Meet their needs according to Your riches in glory (Philippians 4:19), and grant them wisdom to walk in Your ways. Strengthen their faith, Lord, and help them to trust in You completely.
We thank You, Father, for Your faithfulness and for hearing our prayers. We trust in Your promises and believe that You are working all things together for their good (Romans 8:28). In the mighty name of Jesus Christ, we pray. Amen.

We encourage you to continue seeking the Lord daily, reading His Word, and praying in the name of Jesus. If there are any areas of your life or home that need to be surrendered to God, do so without delay. He is faithful to forgive and cleanse us from all unrighteousness (1 John 1:9). Stand firm in your faith, knowing that greater is He who is in you than he who is in the world (1 John 4:4).
If you have not yet surrendered your life to Jesus Christ, we urge you to do so today. Confess your sins, believe in your heart that Jesus is Lord, and you will be saved (Romans 10:9-10). There is no greater protection or freedom than what is found in Him.
