Testimony Tuesday
Have you ever spoken life or praying over your home and family?
We have heard of speaking life over ourselves and others, but our homes need to be spoken and prayed over as well.
My daughter had recently moved into a different home at the end of June.
She had asked that I come over and pray over her new dwelling after she gets settled in somewhat.
I had done this before in her former home, and now I will be doing this again in her new home come this weekend.
I love the idea of making proclamations and praying over our homes. When we do this, we are speaking life and proclaiming God’s Word over our homes.
God’s Word is truth and it is powerful.
When you speak the Word over your home, you are staking claim and declaring that your home is off limits to the enemy or enemy influences.
You are also purging any ungodly attachments of the former resident to your home that may be present.
When you do this, you are putting the devil on notice that your home is off limits, and it is covered by the blood of Jesus.
Be diligent in speaking life and praying over your, home and family.
Blessings,

Clean the House with Oil, Worship and War
Anoint every doorpost and window frame.
Walk through every room with worship music on.
Declare the Word out loud: "As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord." (Joshua 24:15)
Break agreements with fear, addiction, rebellion, and confusion.
Lay hands on phones, TVs, tablets and sanctify the space.
Declaration:
"Every spirit that is not of God must go! This home is now under the blood and authority of Jesus Christ!"
Discern What's in Your House Physically and
Spiritually.
Ask yourself:
• What's playing on your TV when you're not paying attention?
• What symbols are hanging on your walls or clothes?
• Are there unrepented sins or generational items in your home?
•
Are your kids sleeping under spiritual torment?
You can't cleanse what you continue to excuse.
Declaration:
"I ask the Holy Spirit to reveal anything in my home that grieves Him. I welcome His presence above all else."

The Enemy Loves Well-Decorated, Spiritually Empty Homes
Your house may be clean, cozy, and full of things...
But if there's no prayer, no worship, no covering it becomes a comfortable place for chaos to hide.
TV shows, music, arguments, occult items, open doors through sin.
All of these things become access points.
Hell isn't impressed by a remodel. It leaves when it's evicted.
Declaration:
"I will no longer allow anything in my home that partners with darkness. My home belongs to the Lord!"

Declaration #2 - Protection & Peace
"I release peace that crushes chaos.
I declare the blood of Jesus over the doors, the windows, the beds, and the minds in this home.
No demon can cross what is sealed by covenant."
“No weapon formed against you shall prosper, And every tongue which rises against you in judgment You shall condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, And their righteousness is from Me,” Says the Lord.”
Isaiah 54:17

WAR ROOM PRAYER (Legal Decree in the Courts of Heaven):
Father, in the name of Jesus, I secure my household under divine authority.
Every spirit not sent by God — I give you notice. You are trespassing.
I cover every room, every door, every bed, and every conversation with the Blood of Jesus.
I cancel demonic assignments of confusion, fear, addiction, perversion, torment, rebellion, and division.
No spirit of strife, no whisper of shame, no agent of chaos will dwell here.
I declare this home is holy ground. I forbid familiar spirits and generational bondage from continuing through my children.
My house will not host what Heaven hasn’t approved.
I call angels to stand guard at every threshold. I invite the Spirit of God to dwell richly in this place.
I speak peace, wisdom, clarity, and breakthrough in every corner.
In Jesus’ name, amen.

Pray Jeremiah 29:11 Dear God, I thank You that You have overcome this world and victory belongs to You. Thank You that I am a child of the King and victory also belongs to me. I come against the plan of the enemy for my life in the Name of Jesus. I know that the plans that You have for me are thoughts of peace and not evil. Therefore, I declare and decree that these strongholds in my life will not prosper, Amen. 🔥😭🙏🏻
I pray this for each and every single one of you! In the name of Jesus!! You are covered by the blood!!🙌🏼😭

I used to wonder why I cried every time I worshipped.
Nothing was wrong.
I wasn’t sad.
Sometimes I’d walk into church completely fine, the music would start, and suddenly tears were streaming down my face.
I thought, Why am I so emotional? 😭
But the closer I’ve gotten to God, the more I understand…
Sometimes your soul recognizes His presence before your mind can even put words to what you’re feeling.
Those tears aren’t always sadness.
Sometimes they’re surrender.
Sometimes they’re relief.
Sometimes they’re healing.
Sometimes they’re gratitude.
Sometimes it’s the weight you’ve been carrying finally falling at His feet.
There are moments during worship when I don’t even have a prayer.
I just cry.
Because when you’ve been through seasons where God was the ONLY reason you made it through, worship hits differently.
So if you’re the person crying during worship while everyone else seems perfectly fine…
Let the tears fall.
You don’t have to explain what happens in your heart when you’re in the presence of the One who knows every part of it. 🤍

Testimony Tuesday
Sometimes God will ask you to do something that makes absolutely no sense.
And your willingness to say yes anyway will change everything.
Perhaps the change will affect you or someone else, or a situation.
Sometimes, obedience is not comfortable or logical. And it usually never comes with an explanation.
Obedience does not require understanding to act.
And yet, sometimes obedience does require preparation in the midst of not even knowing how or why.
Obedience will open doors that experience never will.
God will often test your obedience.
He asks you to give something up, or do something with no explanation.
He may call you somewhere that terrifies you.
But you go anyway.
You do anyway.
You make the decision to obey the voice of the Lord.
He asks you to choose faith over every logical reason not to.
He asks you to stop asking why and start asking what.
“What do you need from me Lord?”
“What are some areas in my life where I need to bring before you?”
“What are those things I should let go of in this season?”
It is futile to try and figure it out on your own.
God’s purposes are beyond our understanding.
You may not even fully understand or know the reasons right away, or until even decades later.
But this we know, obedience requires faith in God who can do the impossible.
It requires trusting even when we’re not guaranteed an explanation or for see any possible outcome.
That is what faith is all about!
And where does faith come from?
Well, according to Romans 10:17 So faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.
The more you stay in the Word the louder that voice gets.
Learning to trust it over everything else is one of the most important things God will ever teach you.

Testimony Tuesday
I want to share something that never occurred to me before in my faith as I walk with the Lord on earth. Or at least something I never really thought much about.
Today’s video just hit differently for me.
I came across this testimony of this woman who shares another woman’s reflection stating that earthly life is the only chance to worship God through pain and uncertainty, calling it a sacred sacrifice of praise before faith becomes sight.
Mind blown!
How many of us have thought or considered this before?
Here we are on earth.
We know, love and believe in Jesus.
We have a relationship with Him.
We trust in Him.
We have faith in Him.
He is our Savior.
And yet we’ve never seen Him, but we still pray, praise and worship in the midst of life’s most horrific storms and uncertainty that life throws at us.
Consider this; once we our home with Jesus, our worship and praise will be different.
No storms, no pain, no tears of heartbreak.
He will be in front of us.
We will see Him!
And yet we will worship Him with such awesome glory.
I look at my worship and praise differently now.
What an honor to worship our Lord in the midst of our storms.
These next two verses seem to bring a better understanding to me now.
I Peter 1:6-9
“In this you greatly rejoice, though now for a little while, if need be, you have been grieved by various trials, that the genuineness of your faith, being much more precious than gold that perishes, though it is tested by fire, may be found to praise, honor, and glory at the revelation of Jesus Christ, whom having not seen you love.
Though now you do not see Him, yet believing, you rejoice with joy inexpressible and full of glory, receiving the end of your faith—the salvation of your souls.”
Hebrews 13:15
“Therefore by Him let us continually offer the sacrifice of praise to God, that is, the fruit of our lips, giving thanks to His name.”
God is glorified when we worship and praise Him in the storms of life.
How sacred and precious this is to Him!
There will be no need for faith in heaven, and my guess is that there will be no need for prayer in heaven because we will be face to face with our Lord.
Only celebration, glory and honor to our King of kings, Lord of lords, our Savior Jesus Christ who is worthy of our praise!
I don’t know about you but my heart felt at home in these words.
Amen!
