2 Samuel 7:27-29 (KJ21)
For Thou, O LORD of hosts, God of Israel, hast revealed to Thy servant, saying, ‘I will build thee a house.’ Therefore hath Thy servant found in his heart to pray this prayer unto Thee. And now, O Lord GOD, Thou art that God, and Thy words be true, and Thou hast promised this goodness unto Thy servant. Therefore now let it please Thee to bless the house of Thy servant, that it may continue for ever before Thee; for Thou, O Lord GOD, hast spoken it, and with Thy blessing let the house of Thy servant be blessed for ever.

2 Samuel 7:27-29 (NAS)
For Thou, O LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, hast made a revelation to Thy servant, saying, ‘I will build you a house’; therefore Thy servant has found courage to pray this prayer to Thee. Now therefore, may it please Thee to bless the house of Thy servant, that it may continue forever before Thee. For Thou, O Lord GOD, hast spoken; and with Thy blessing may the house of Thy servant be blessed forever. And now, O Lord GOD, Thou art God, and Thy words are truth, and Thou hast promised this good thing to Thy servant.

2 Samuel 7:27-29 (NIVUS)
O LORD Almighty, God of Israel, you have revealed this to your servant, saying, ‘I will build a house for you.’ So your servant has found courage to offer you this prayer. O Sovereign LORD, you are God! Your words are trustworthy, and you have promised these good things to your servant. Now be pleased to bless the house of your servant, that it may continue forever in your sight; for you, O Sovereign LORD, have spoken, and with your blessing the house of your servant will be blessed forever

2 Samuel 7:27-29 (NLT)
"O LORD Almighty, God of Israel, I have been bold enough to pray this prayer because you have revealed that you will build a house for me—an eternal dynasty! For you are God, O Sovereign LORD. Your words are truth, and you have promised these good things to me, your servant.And now, may it please you to bless me and my family so that our dynasty may continue forever before you. For when you grant a blessing to your servant, O Sovereign LORD, it is an eternal blessing!"


The Lord Jehovah is the Lord Sabaoth, Lord over the hosts and armies of Israel. He is the One Who wages war on your behalf and you are under His protection. He is the God Who prevails over all.

He has uncovered and revealed His plan for your life. He has spoken promises for your ears alone. You have hearkened to and been obedient to what He has disclosed. He, therefore, intends to build up your house and your family. He has established them and they will continue. They shall be a dwelling place of the Living God permanently.

You are secure in praying from you heart unto the Lord your God, for you know you can trust Him. As you turn your heart to the Lord Jehovah, He becomes your Lord and Master. Adonai is Lord of lords and King of kings, who has all authority. His words are firm and sure. He is faithful and His truth is reliable and stable. When you stand on His word, you stand firmly on the Rock and there is no sifting sand under your feet. It supports, upholds, and nourishes you. You know that He has spoken good and pleasant promises to you, promises that speak to your benefit, welfare, and prosperity.

You are not afraid to ask for and seek God's blessings on your life. It is not foolish to look to Him for such favor; for He has already determined that He will do it. So ask for His blessing on your house; forever shall you and your family be blessed and give praise to the name of the Most High G
