Prayer for moving out of an infested ###

[Anonymous]

Hello everyone, about two years ago I moved to this apartment after which only problems have followed me in this apartment. Recently, it has gained a bed bug infestation from the above neighbours and I've tried everything to get rid of it, from vacuuming to medicine and they just won't go away. I no longer sleep on any of the beds or sofas because of the paranoia and run on 3 hours of sleep every day. My faith in Jesus is still strong and I've found a new apartment that is furnished but slightly above budget. Please guide me with a prayer to support me especially since today is the first day of advent. Thank you for your support.

I prayed for this in Jesus Name. Amen.

We lift you up before the Father in this time of great trial, knowing that He is your refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. The enemy may seek to steal your peace through these infestations, but we declare that no weapon formed against you shall prosper, for the Lord has promised to deliver you from every snare and pestilence. Your faith in Jesus is your shield, and we rejoice that you are standing firm in Him even amid this distress. The Lord sees your suffering, and He has already prepared a way out for you—this new apartment is a testament to His provision, even if the cost seems daunting.

The Bible reminds us in **Matthew 6:31-33**, *"Therefore don’t be anxious, saying, ‘What will we eat?’ ‘What will we drink?’ or, ‘With what will we be clothed?’ For the Gentiles seek after all these things; for your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. But seek first God’s Kingdom and his righteousness; and all these things will be given to you as well."* Your need for rest, safety, and a home free from torment is known to Him. He who feeds the birds of the air and clothes the lilies of the field will not abandon you. Trust that if He has led you to this new place, He will also provide the means—whether through unexpected income, wisdom in budgeting, or another door He opens.

We also stand against the spiritual oppression that has accompanied this infestation. **Psalm 91:5-6** declares, *"You shall not be afraid of the terror by night, nor of the arrow that flies by day; nor of the pestilence that walks in darkness, nor of the destruction that wastes at noonday."* These bed bugs are not just a physical nuisance but a tool the enemy has used to rob you of sleep, peace, and dignity. We rebuke this attack in the name of Jesus, commanding every demonic assignment behind it to be broken. The blood of Christ covers your home, and we declare that no plague shall come near your dwelling. As you move, we pray a hedge of protection around your new apartment—sealed by the Holy Spirit against any infestation or curse.

Now, let us pray together:

Heavenly Father, we come before You on behalf of Your beloved child, who has endured so much in this place of torment. Lord, You are Jehovah-Rapha, the God who heals, and we ask You to restore what the locusts have eaten—restful sleep, peace of mind, and the joy of a safe home. We thank You for the new apartment You have provided, and we ask for Your supernatural provision to cover every financial need. Open doors no man can shut, Lord, whether through favor with landlords, additional income, or divine creativity in managing resources. Let no weapon of lack or fear prosper against this move.

We speak life into every dead space in the new home. May it be a sanctuary where Your presence dwells, where no pestilence or evil shall enter. We plead the blood of Jesus over every corner, every piece of furniture, and every night of sleep to come. Break the cycles of insomnia and anxiety that have taken root, and restore this servant’s body, mind, and spirit to wholeness.

Father, we also ask for Your angels to go before them as they transition. Let every trace of these bugs be utterly destroyed in the old apartment, and let no remnant follow. Give wisdom in packing and cleaning, Lord, and let this move be swift and free from complications. Most of all, we pray for a fresh outpouring of Your peace—one that surpasses all understanding—to guard their heart and mind in Christ Jesus.

We declare that this season of Advent marks not just the celebration of Your Son’s first coming but a new beginning for this child of Yours. Just as You made a way for Mary and Joseph to find shelter in Bethlehem, make a way now. Let this move be a testimony of Your faithfulness, and let it draw them even closer to You.

In the mighty and matchless name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, we pray. Amen.

Stand firm, dear one. The Lord is your deliverer, and this trial shall soon be a testimony. As you step into this new place, anoint it with oil (a symbol of the Holy Spirit’s presence) and declare it as holy ground for the Lord’s purposes. Keep seeking Him first, and watch as He provides in ways you cannot yet see. The battle is His, and the victory is already won.

We're here with you, dear friend, as you navigate through this challenging time. We've been thinking about you and wanted to reach out with a word of encouragement and prayer. We know that moving out of this infested apartment is a big step, and we're so glad that you've found a new place, even if it's slightly above budget.

Firstly, let's remember that God sees your situation. In Psalm 34:18, it says, "The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit." He knows the sleepless nights, the anxiety, and the financial strain you're under. But remember, He also promises in Matthew 6:33, "But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well."

We want to pray that God would provide for every need as you move. We ask that He would open doors for favor with landlords, for unexpected income, or for creative solutions to manage your resources. We trust that He who clothes the lilies of the field and feeds the birds of the air will also take care of you.

Let's also pray for peace. We rebuke any anxiety or fear that's trying to steal your joy during this Advent season. We declare that God's peace, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your heart and mind in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:7).

Lastly, we want to encourage you to anoint your new apartment with oil, symbolizing the presence of the Holy Spirit. Declare it as holy ground for the Lord's purposes. As you step into this new place, keep seeking Him first, and watch as He provides in ways you can't yet see.

We're standing with you in prayer, dear one. The battle is the Lord's, and the victory is already won. Keep your eyes on Him, and you'll see His faithfulness in action.
