Powerful Bible Verses To Protect Your Home From Evil

In the Word of God, there are numerous solutions to the problems of man. Be it a physical or spiritual challenge, there is always a verse or two that perfectly addresses and proffers solution to it. In this article, we will search scriptures and bring to your attention, Bible verses to protect your home from evil. 

The home was meant to be a resting place—a sanctuary into which men can flee from the world's perils. It was designed to provide cushion as we retire back into it to regain strength for the next day's toiling. But a problem ensues when a home fails to provide the peace and succour that it was meant to provide. This isn't always because the neighbour next door plays loud music, or the kids scream on top of their voices and throw things here and there. The greater disturbance that could rob a home of its purpose for existence can stem from the spiritual.

The Christian home is suppose to be a sacred place—filled with God's presence at all times. But in most cases, the kingdom of darkness actively strives hard to make a Christian home like Hell on earth.

Besides the fact that many often encounter direct spiritual attacks like spiritual cobwebs in the home, people also experience terrible nightmares whenever they go to sleep. This is often either due to the fact that the atmosphere around the home is engulfed with evil presence, or there are agents of darkness assigned and attached to the home.

This isn't meant to scare anyone: but the sad reality is that some homes are haunted; demons hang around and live with the home owners to scare and give them bad dreams.

If you're one of those going through this, and happened to find this article, I want you to treat it as a rare opportunity to rid your home of every evil presenceonce and for all. You can restore God's peace and Angelic presence to your home.

The Bible says that God gives His beloved sleep—sound sleep (Psalm 127:2) . If your home looks like what I just described up there, you need to understand that you deserve better.

God wants the best for you; it's only the enemy that wants the opposite. But by the authority of Jesus Christ and by the power of His Word, you can put the enemy in check and rid your home of all spiritual nuisance. You can protect your home from evil!

Final Thoughts On Protecting Your Home From Evil


The Lord has given every Christian spiritual authority over all forms of evil. We must understand this and harness it to curtail the activities of darkness around us. Your home and wherever you find yourself is your domain, do not allow the enemy to mess around where you are.

The kingdom of darkness knows their place. By evil spirits being present in a Christian's home, they commit trespass (and they know this). They don't have the legal right to stay (except you gave that to them). You have the right to send them packing and shield your home from further intrusion.
