Our New House
When you say your prayers on Monday please pray for Valerie and I as we close on our new house.
This is what I plan on reading:

"Prayer: “Lord I pray that you will watch over our new home. We trust you for our protection while living in this home”
* My people will abide in a peaceful habitation, in secure dwellings, and in quiet resting places. Isaiah 32:18
* In peace I will both lie down and sleep; for you alone, O Lord, make me dwell in safety. Psalm 4:8
* Their homes are safe and free from fear; the rod of God is not upon them Job 21:9
Prayer: “Lord I pray that you will provide for us while we are in this home. We trust you for our provision. We ask that you show us how we can share your provision with others.”
* Look at the birds of the air: they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they? Matthew 6:26
* And my God will meet all your needs according to His glorious riches in Christ Jesus Philippians 4:19
Prayer: “Lord please make our home a place of peace. May it be a home where all who come to visit feel welcome and feel your love.”
* Do not forget to entertain strangers, for by so doing some people have entertained angels without knowing it Hebrews 13:2
* Show hospitality to one another without grumbling. As each has received a gift, use it to serve one another, as good stewards of God’s varied grace 1 Peter 4:9-10
Prayer: “Lord help our family grow closer to you while we live in this home. Help us to advance your Kingdom as we live in this home.”
* And these words that I command you today shall be on your heart. You shall teach them diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise. You shall bind them as a sign on your hand, and they shall be as frontlets between your eyes. You shall write them on the doorposts of your house and on your gates. Deuteronomy 6:6-9
* He said to them, ‘When you pray, say: “Father, hallowed be Your name, Your kingdom come” Luke 11:2
Prayer: Lord we ask for your Blessing on our home. We invite your leadership of our home and we submit ourselves to you.
* And God is able to make all grace abound to you, so that in all things at all times, having all that you need, you will abound in every good work. 2 Corinthians 9:8
* Therefore let us be grateful for receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, and thus let us offer to God acceptable worship, with reverence and awe, for our God is a consuming fire. Hebrews 12:28-29
* Now therefore may it please you to bless the house of your servant, so that it may continue forever before you. For you, O Lord God, have spoken, and with your blessing shall the house of your servant be blessed forever. 2 Samuel 7:29"
