35 Bible Verses to Bless Your New House

This post may contain affiliate links. I will be compensated if you make a purchase after clicking on the links but at no additional cost to you. Thank you for continuing to support JandLOnline!

I had this idea in my head to have our family write blessings on the walls of our new home before we even purchased land. At our last home, we had an awesome neighbor on one side who did this and I was annoyed at myself that we didn’t do it during the building process. But the Lord had other plans for us because we ended up selling that house and were given the opportunity to build our dream home!

Today I’ll be sharing with you 35 bible verses for inspiration to bless your new home during your own building process.

I had wanted to plan a family BBQ at the property with our parents and siblings to dedicate our home but it rained the day before and it wasn’t going to be safe to park cars on the grass like we usually do. So James and I grabbed a quick lunch for the kids and set out a picnic, our first meal, in the dining room of our new home. Afterwards, the kids and I wrote bible verses throughout the home.

I selected a verse for each of the kids to write in their rooms as a reminder to not be afraid to put all their faith in God; He will be there when they wake and He will be there while they sleep.

I love that Natalie selected her favorite verse to write above her window.

Here are a few others that we chose:
“Let every person be quick to hear, slow to speak, slow to anger”
James 1:19

As a blind reminder for myself; I pray for patience every day while I strive to raise our children without anger and frustration. This verse was placed next to where our bed will be in the master bedroom.

On the staircase:
“By wisdom a house is built and by understanding it is established; by knowledge the rooms are filled with precious and pleasant riches.”
Proverbs 24:3-4

In one of our son’s rooms:
“The Lord will keep you from evil; He will keep you safe. He will protect you as you come and go, now and forever.” Psalm 121:8

In our youngest son’s room:
“Be strong and courageous. Do not be frightened or discouraged, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.” Joshua 1:9

Above our front door:
“You will be blessed when you come in; and blessed when you go out.” Deuteronomy 28:6

When we stopped by the house on Monday afternoon, the construction crew were all excited to talk about each of the blessings they saw inside.

I have created a list with 35 of my favorite bible verses which we used to bless our home that I hope you will draw inspiration from for your own home! Don’t forget to PIN one of the images below to share this post with your friends!

    Thank you for sharing these scriptures. My wife and I are currently in the PROCESS of BELIEVING and TRUSTING GOD for a new house by the end of this year. The journey all began a few months ago when GOD spoke the word to me from Proverbs 24:3,4 and Jeremiah 29:11. He’s been ordering my steps towards this vision and I am confident that it is already done in Jesus name. Praise God!!!!

Who else has multiple Christmas trees in their hom Who else has multiple Christmas trees in their homes? Do you have themed trees?

This little 4ft flocked tree was part of my annual Magical Santa sessions last year and is perfect for the foyer table. (Linked in stories)

I still love my 2020 dollar store Santa head ornaments and they restocked them this year so I snagged some more to fill out this tree and I love the whimsy.

We snagged this 12ft tall pre-lit Wesley long needle pine from @homedepot last year at a closeout deal.

Not having to string the lights was a huge time-saver and I got to enjoy hanging the decorations more than in years past.

Spaces we designed in our basement:

+ Under stairs storage
+ Craft room (will be used for indoor all year gardening and canning storage)
+ Home gym

The design of the photo studio was intended to double as a future in-law suite with separate living and bedroom spaces and a private bathroom and entrance/exit should we ever need to have one of our parents move in with us.
