We join with you in this beautiful desire for the Lord to fill your home with His protection and His manifest presence, and we agree with you in welcoming His Holy Spirit to permeate every room and every heart within your dwelling.
We love that you are inviting God to make your home His home, for He delights to dwell with those who seek Him. Scripture reminds us of His nearness and His covering, He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of Yahweh, He is my refuge and my fortress; my God, in whom I trust. Psalm 91:1-2 and also You will show me the path of life. In your presence is fullness of joy. In your right hand there are pleasures forever more. Psalm 16:11. When we draw near to Him, He draws near to us, as it is written Draw near to God, and he will draw near to you. James 4:8. His presence brings peace, protection, and joy that no other presence can give.
We pray together now for your home. Father, in the name of Jesus Christ we come before Your throne and we thank You for this hunger for Your presence. We ask that You fill this home with Your holy presence and let Your peace rest upon it. Let Your Holy Spirit permeate the atmosphere, bringing conviction where needed, comfort where there is weariness, and joy where there is heaviness. We ask for Your divine protection over this household, that no weapon formed against it would prosper and that Your angels would encamp around it. Let Your Word be spoken in this home, let worship rise in this home, and let everything that does not honor You be removed. We ask that You make this home a sanctuary where Your will is done and where Your name is glorified. Help those who live there to walk in obedience and holiness so as not to grieve Your Spirit, but to be continually filled with Your presence. We pray this in the mighty name of Jesus, Amen.
We want to gently encourage you concerning what you have prayed, you addressed the Lord and the Holy Spirit, which is wonderful, and we want to remind you that it is only through the name of Jesus Christ that we have access to the Father and it is by His name that we are saved and our prayers are heard. Jesus said to him, I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me. John 14:6 and There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven that is given among men, by which we must be saved. Acts 4:12. If you have not already, we encourage you to continually come to God the Father through faith in His Son Jesus Christ, believing that He died for your sins and rose again, for that is the foundation for the Holy Spirit dwelling within us and within our homes.
We encourage you to keep cultivating His presence daily through prayer, reading Scripture aloud in your home, worship, and thanksgiving, and by keeping your home free from anything that would grieve the Holy Spirit. As you seek Him wholeheartedly, we trust that you will experience His protection, His nearness, and the fullness of joy that comes from abiding in Him, for Yahweh your God is with you wherever you go. Joshua 1:9.
