Dear Lord,
Trying to find a home was so exciting! I never imagined having my own home would be so invigorating.

A house blessing is a religious ceremony performed by a priest or clergyman. The priest will walk through the home, blessing each room in turn.
The ceremony is usually conducted after moving into a new home, but can also be performed before moving into an old one. It can also be performed at any time during the year if you feel that your home needs spiritual cleansing and blessing.
The house blessing prayer consists of prayers for protection and blessing for the family moving into the new home. It may also contain prayers for the deceased members of the family who have lived in this house previously.
The priest will usually sprinkle holy water on every doorframe and window in the house as he moves through it, saying “May God protect this house”. He will also make sure to bless all of your personal belongings as well as your pets.
Unexpected Problems

I pray for your blessing on this home. Some problems have risen that I did not see coming and I fear how much money I may have to put into repairing these issues. I know I can fix the minor issues, but the heater is out. Father, I pray that this issue is really an easy, small problem and that I won’t have to purchase a new unit to keep the house warm. Father, give me peace to know that Your blessing is still here even in the midst of uncertainty.
Amen

It’s Yours
Lord,
I am truly thankful for this home that You have led us to. Lord, as much as I love this home I place it into Your hands for it really is Yours. Nothing happens without Your foreknowledge. Father, may I be a good steward of this home. Bless my efforts to grow a beautiful family and also a beautiful home. Lord, may this be a home that people know are always welcome, for it is Your home. So, I ask for Your blessing on it. May it be a place of refuge from the cold winter winds. May it be a place of security when my kids/spouse needs a hug or a serious conversation. May it be a place of romance as my husband/wife and I dance in the kitchen and long for one another when we are apart. This home is such a blessing and I will not take it for granted. I love, You!
