How To Pray These Prayer Points
Pray the first ten standing in the house itself if you can, room by room. Then take the delay set, points 19 to 28, at midnight for seven nights and keep a note of the date you started. If something was holding the sale, that is usually where it breaks.
When an offer finally comes, switch to points 29 to 37 and pray them through every stage of the money until it clears. Do not stop praying the day someone says yes. Sales collapse between yes and completion more often than they collapse at the viewing.

Frequently Asked Questions
What saint do I pray to for selling a house?
Scripture points believers to pray to God directly, through Jesus, with no one standing in between. 1 Timothy 2:5 says there is one God and one mediator between God and mankind, Christ Jesus. If you have been praying to a saint or burying a statue in the yard, bring the request straight to the Father instead. He owns the house and He owns the buyer.
How to bring good luck to sell your house?
There is no luck in this and no ritual to perform. What the Bible offers instead is better than luck: commit the sale to God, ask Him to send the buyer, and refuse the delay that is not from Him. Points 1, 2 and 7 above are that prayer, and Proverbs 16:3 is the promise behind it.
Who do you pray to when you sell your house?
Pray to God the Father in the name of Jesus. He is the one who opens the storehouse of His bounty over the work of your hands, which is what Deuteronomy 28:12 describes. That verse is about land and labor, which is exactly what a house sale is.
How to pray for money to come immediately?
Pray for provision and for timing in the same breath, because urgent money prayed for without wisdom often arrives in a form that costs more later. Point 9 asks God to meet your needs while you wait, and point 32 asks for wisdom when the offers come. Pray both.
How long should I keep praying if the house will not sell?
Until it sells. Habakkuk 2:3 tells you to wait for it even when it lingers, because it will certainly come. Keep praying point 46 on the weeks when waiting is the hardest part, and do not make a desperate decision inside a season of pressure.
This house will sell. Keep praying over it and keep the property ready. If the real pressure underneath this is debt, stand on these prayer points to break every financial curse as well. If the sale is tied to a job move, these prayer points after losing your job belong in the same season, and this prayer for financial breakthrough is a shorter one for the drive. When the keys finally change hands, pray these prayer points for a happy home over the next one before you unpack a single box.
