Prayer for Blessings of Family / Household — Bedroom of Rest
Builder of homes, establish us by Psalm 127:1–2.
Unless the Lord builds the house,
the builders labor in vain.
Unless the Lord watches over the city,
the guards stand watch in vain.
2 In vain you rise early
and stay up late,
toiling for food to eat—
for he grants sleep to[a] those he loves.
Pause — Picture each family member resting in Jesus’ arms.
Bless every room and person by name.
Pray unity, kindness, quick repair (Col 3:12–14).
12 Therefore, as God’s chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience. 13 Bear with each other and forgive one another if any of you has a grievance against someone. Forgive as the Lord forgave you. 14 And over all these virtues put on love, which binds them all together in perfect unity.
Claim Isaiah 32:18: peaceful dwelling, secure homes.
My people will live in peaceful dwelling places,
in secure homes,
in undisturbed places of rest.
Let our home hum with welcome. Amen.
