5 ways to fill your Home with Peace and The Presence of the Lord

Did you know that we must spiritually cleanse our home? Here are 5 ways you can fill your home with Peace and the presence of the Lord.

This post is all about 5 ways to fill your home with the peach and the presence of the lord

1. The Importance of a Clean Home:

Proverbs 31:27 NLT “She carefully watches everything in her household and suffers nothing from laziness”.

We’ve all seen homes that are unrealistically clean and Pinterest-worthy… yeah no! Not the clean We’re talking about here, people like you and I, homes that are lived in-clean.

I’m talking about the accumulated messes that add up little by little and before you know it the whole house needs a serious cleaning. When my home is a mess, I feel my life is a mess, and if my life is a mess, I can’t fully relax and focus. A clean home is the foundation for filling your home with the desired peace. Create a cleaning schedule that works for you.

2. Declutter:

Ecclesiastes 3:6b “ A time to keep and a time to throw away.”

I know it’s in our human nature to buy and collect things, even for the what-if or just-in-case circumstances, that rarely happens, and if they do it’s three years later, and by then you forgot that you had whatever it is and ended up repurchasing it anyways. I’m a firm believer that material things hold energy. It may be part of the reason why many people choose to live a minimalist lifestyle. Decluttered space. Decluttered mind. Just be honest with yourself and let it go! Trust me when you start, you won’t want to stop. Decluttering your home will surely fill your home with peace.

3. Worship Music:

Have you ever received a phone call that after the call ended, you felt uneasy? Let me be the first to tell you, If it’s one thing that will change your home’s mood immediately, worship music will do the trick. In 1 Samuel 16:14-23 (in short) King Saul’s spirit was troubled by a tormenting spirit, so he called for David to soothe him by playing the harp. Only then does the spirit leave him. Worship is warfare! The Bible talks a lot about musicians sent into battle, here are some more scriptures to reference. Psalms 95:1, 68:4, 1 Chronicles 15:16, Colossians 3:16

4. Prayer: Welcome The Prince of Peace in:

One thing that I like to do when I first move into a new place is pray over and bless my home and invite the Lord into my home to dwell with us. You don’t know who’s lived there before you and what types of practices they were into or the spirits attached to the house or to the land itself. But don’t worry even if you’ve lived in your home for years, you can still pray over and bless and invite The Prince of Peace into your home.

What prayer can I say to bless my home?

The short answer is to Pray the Scriptures over your home. That’s right you don’t need this long fancy prayer to bless your home. I’ll help you get started.

“Our Father who is in heaven Lord of all creations, I consecrate my family and my home for you to be glorified. We invite your Holy Spirit to dwell with us. We invite your angels to cover and protect our home…”

at this point gather all of the scriptures you’ve found regarding the home and family. Don’t feel the need to memorize the scripture. It’s okay to have the scriptures pulled up on your phone or written down and you’re reading it as you go. The Lord says in Isaiah 43:26 to REMIND ME of my word. So that’s what we’re doing here. Reminding him.

Here are a few:

Lord your word says according to Hebrews 3:4 “For every house is built by someone, but God is the builder of everything.” Lord, you are the builder of our home.

Isaiah 9:6 “For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.

According to Matthew 7:25, “The rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house, and it did not fall, for it was founded on the rock.”

Bless be the rock and the God of our foundation be exalted.

Joshua 24:15b “But as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.”

Father, you said in 2 Samuel 7:29 “Now be pleased to bless the house of your servant, that it may continue forever in your sight; for you, Sovereign LORD, have spoken, and with your blessing the house of your servant will be blessed forever.”

Proverbs 24:3-4 “By wisdom a house is built, and through understanding it is established; through knowledge, its rooms are filled with rare and beautiful treasures.”

“Lord, I’m unsure who lived here before us and the activities that have taken place here, but I invite the Prince of Peace in. Rebuking any spirits that aren’t of God. I rebuke the spirit of delay, the spirit of depression, the spirit of anxiety, the spirit of barrenness, the spirit of infertility, the spirit of anger, the spirit of anti-progress, can no longer live here and you must go. I pray for the blood of Jesus to wash over and cleanse my home. Have your way O Lord.”

5. Anoint your Home:

Anointing your home goes hand in hand with the previous step. In Exodus 30:22-29 it talks about anointing the Tabernacle and the things in it with holy anointing oil. Your Pastor or church store will probably be your best option to purchase your oil or you can make your own. I wouldn’t recommend purchasing oil from any random person or place. Be sure that the oil has been prayed over and blessed with pure intentions.

How to make anointing oil

What does it mean to anoint your home?

Anointing your home means to simply bless it, to purify it. You can think of the oil as Jesus’s blood. Just like in Exodus 12 The Passover, they were instructed to smear blood over the door post and it will serve as a sign, marking the houses with spiritual protection.

How do you do a prayer walk through your house?

First, get rid of any items from your home that may have evil roots. Such as crystals, tarot cards, and Ouija boards, gifts from someone will ill intentions, etc. If you’re unsure, ask the Lord to reveal those items to you.

You are now equipped with your Prayer and Scriptures from step four, and you have your anointing oil. Start at the entrance of your home while praying your prayer aloud and marking all doors, windows, and anything you feel led to anoint with your oil. Walking throughout your home, you repeat this process and allow the Holy Spirit to lead you. Feel free to have worship music playing to set the atmosphere.

With all of the tips listed above, get your house in order by cleaning and decluttering your space. One thing to always remember is “Worship is Warfare” so play your worship music.

Once your home is clean and free of all clutter, you will feel incredible from that alone. By creating a routine of, playing worship music, consistent prayer, and anointing your home, will surely fill your home with Peace and the Presence of the Lord.

Bonus:

Do you watch scary movies? Be careful what you allow yourself and your family to watch. A lot of these horror film producers have openly admitted to using real spells and demons.
