“Through wisdom a house is built, and by understanding it is established; by knowledge the rooms are filled with all precious and pleasant riches” –Proverbs 24:3-4 (NKJV).

If you desire to build a house like the one described above, there are some practical ways to start—and they all have to do with atmosphere.

We have a spiritual atmosphere in our homes that we can energize with the power of the Holy Spirit, or leave blank for anything or anyone to permeate. The latter is much too dangerous. If we fail to play offensively, we’ll end up playing defensively and wearing ourselves down with unnecessary trials.

How can you fill your atmosphere with the Word of God? Try these simple, but powerful, ideas at home:

  • Set up a device to play the entire Bible around the clock. Let it run on low volume 24 hours a day, seven days a week. No matter where you are or what you’re doing, the Word of God is being spoken into the atmosphere of your home!
  • Turn on VICTORY Channel®, and let it play in your home.
  • Play worship music softly throughout the day.
  • Speak the Word of God out loud as you go about your daily tasks.
  • Share stories about the goodness of God at the dinner table.
  • Pray in the spirit around the house as often as you can.
  • Break any curses that have been spoken over you or your family in Jesus’ Name and drive out any wrong spirits, as well.
  • As important as what you release into your atmosphere is what you keep out. Don’t allow horror films or unwholesome media and music to play into your home’s atmosphere. Guard your home!

In addition to these, make prayer and quiet time with the Lord a priority every day. If you’ve been facing any challenges in your home, you will see a shift in your atmosphere when you invite Him to permeate every inch of your home!
