Do you want God to give you land? Would you like to inherit land without your having the money to buy it? To just receive land by the gift of God? If so, then it's time to pray for land inheritances!
What are land inheritances?
First, they are plural. When Father God told me to write this blog post with this prayer for land inheritances, He was very clear about the word “inheritances.” Plural. I even tried to change the title to “Pray for Your Land Inheritance,” but I didn't have peace about it. “Inheritance” is not what God said.
But “Inheritances” IS what God said.
(Holy Spirit was also very insistent that I write this post NOW, so I believe He's trying to move in this area in your life and mine. I was about to go get groceries, but He told me I had to SIT DOWN AND WRITE A PRAYER FOR LAND INHERITANCES NOW. #AwesomeSauce I take that as a very good sign!)
So, land inheritances. Inheritances are things that you receive by virtue of either your bloodline OR your relationship with another person.
A person is usually given an inheritance when there is a triggering event: namely, the death of the benefactor. When the benefactor dies, his will gets read and his commands get carried out, giving his property to the people named in his will.
Ummm … does that remind you of anything? It sure does me. 🙂
Let me say that another way:
When the Benefactor dies, His will gets read and His commands get carried out, giving His property to the people named in His will.
And in this case, Jesus is the Benefactor. Jesus died, so now we can read His will. Yes, He's alive again because He didn't stay dead; He rose again on the third day. However, His death was still the triggering event that made it possible to for His will to be carried out.
Now, thanks to Jesus' own blood sacrifice that paved the way for Heaven to invade earth, Father God is handing out His property to the people named in His will. And according to God's written Will, the Bible, the people named in the will are you and me.
Woot! Glory to God! Isn't that amazing? Sign me up!
So how does receiving land inheritances work? How can you pray for land inheritances?
First, we need to understand that all the land belongs to God, so He can give it to whomever He wishes.
Psalm 24:1 tells us:
The earth is the Lord’s, and all its fullness, the world and those who dwell therein.”
So if ALL the land is God's, does He want to give it to you?
Answer: YES. God definitely wants to give land to YOU.
Since Father owns everything and always has, He will still own it even after He gives it to you. He owns it because He is the over-arching Chief Owner of All Creation.
Nevertheless, it IS His will to physically give you land of your own to inhabit while you are living on the earth. How do we know this?
We know this because God has always given land to His people.
He planted a garden for Adam and Eve to live in. Personally planted it, then placed them in it. It was theirs to tend.
Then He gave land to Abraham and Abraham's descendants. In Genesis 13:14-17, God told Abraham:
And I will make your descendants as the dust of the earth; so that if a man could number the dust of the earth, then your descendants also could be numbered. Arise, walk in the land through its length and its width, for I give it to you.”
God perpetuated that covenant that He made with Abraham.
He kept it always, and is still keeping it; for it was a “forever” covenant. He did in fact bring Abraham into that land, and it has belonged to Abraham's descendants from that time until now. It still does belong to the Jewish people.
And the blessings that God gave Abraham through the covenant He made with that man of faith are available to you and me today. Galatians 3:13-14 says:
(Note: In the passage above from Galatians, the apostle Paul tells us that the blessing of Abraham is ours through Christ Jesus. He then expounds on that fact by explaining that that's how we have Holy Spirit living inside us. However, the blessing of Abraham was not limited to Holy Spirit. Paul is simply teaching us a truth, then expounding on one particular aspect of that truth in line with the rest of the topic he was writing about in that whole chapter.)
What else does God say about giving you land?
It's so important to know that there are Scriptures for this, so you'll have faith that your prayer is God's will–and so you'll be able to pray God's Word back to Him! So look at just a few of the other Scriptures that tell us it's God's will to give us land:
“Wait on the Lord, and keep His way, and He shall exalt you to inherit the land; when the wicked are cut off, you shall see it” (Psalm 37:24).
“So it shall be, when the Lord your God brings you into the land of which He swore to your fathers, to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, to give you large and beautiful cities which you did not build, houses full of all good things, which you did not fill, hewn-out wells which you did not dig, vineyards and olive trees which you did not plant—when you have eaten and are full–then beware, lest you forget the Lord who brought you out of the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage” (Deuteronomy 6:10-12).
“When your son asks you in time to come, saying, ‘What is the meaning of the testimonies, the statutes, and the judgments which the Lord our God has commanded you?' then you shall say to your son:
‘We were slaves of Pharaoh in Egypt, and the Lord brought us out of Egypt with a mighty hand; and the Lord showed signs and wonders before our eyes, great and severe, against Egypt, Pharaoh, and all his household.
Then He brought us out from there, that He might bring us in, to give us the land of which He swore to our fathers. And the Lord commanded us to observe all these statutes, to fear the Lord our God, for our good always, that He might preserve us alive, as it is this day” (Deuteronomy 6:20-24).
“Therefore you shall keep the commandments of the Lord your God, to walk in His ways and to fear Him. For the Lord your God is bringing you into a good land, a land of brooks of water, of fountains and springs, that flow out of valleys and hills;
a land of wheat and barley, of vines and fig trees and pomegranates, a land of olive oil and honey; a land in which you will eat bread without scarcity, in which you will lack nothing; a land whose stones are iron and out of whose hills you can dig copper.
When you have eaten and are full, then you shall bless the Lord your God for the good land which He has given you” (Deuteronomy 8:6-10).
The Bible clearly says that it's God's will to give us houses, land, vineyards, and more.
Just to make sure I wasn't interpreting this wrong, I actually looked up the word “land” that is used in many of the Scripture passages above. And to my surprise, I found out that it means …
… yup. Land.
Dirt. The brown stuff.
As in, land. The kind that can grow grass. You know, the green stuff. 😉 Actual, physical space on planet Earth. Tangible, physical land.
Don't try to spiritualize all the promises of God. Sometimes He really is talking about physical stuff!
And in these promises, He really is talking about physical land. Land you can hike on, build on, live on, garden on, lay on, and even eat, if eating dirt is your thing. (Sorry; couldn't resist. Hasn't everybody eaten dirt when they were a little kid?)
Land.

So what kind of land do you want?
I actually dream of having from 1-40 acres of paid-for land in an accessible part of Wyoming. Accessible being the key word, and paid-for being the second key word. 🙂 I love Wyoming and want to lay on my land and rest my cheek on it and love it and squeeze it and look at the view all around me. Having that land is a written goal of mine.
What kind of land do you dream of having?
- Land to live on?
- Land for your kids to play on?
- Land for your ministry?
- Land to swim and hike and fish on?
- Land with enough trees around your house so your neighbors can't see into your windows? 🙂
Whatever kind of land you want, I can tell you this: I don't believe in “name-it-claim-it” theology, in which some people believe you can just say something and boom, you'll have it.
However:
- I do believe in the Word of God.
- I do believe in claiming God's promises and praying His Word back to Him.
- I do believe that the Bible is the inerrant, infallible Word of God.
- I believe every single word in it is inspired by God.
- I believe that God is not a man, that He should lie (it's the war cry of the spiritual warlord).
- I believe He is a GOOD, GOOD FATHER.
And I believe that He meant it when He said:
So I don't know what Father has in store for you, but I do know that if you will delight yourself in Him, and present His Word back to Him in prayer, He will hear your prayer, honor His Word, and give you the desires of your heart.
So are you ready?
Pray this prayer for land inheritances with me:
“Father God, in Jesus' name, I thank You for all Your promises that tell me You desire to give me land. Father, I thank You that it's the blood of Jesus, who died but then rose again and is alive forevermore, that has purchased my inheritance for me. And I thank You that Your Word says that, if I delight myself in You, You will give me the desires of my heart.
So Father God, in Jesus' name, I claim Your promise. You said the righteous shall inherit the land. I am the righteousness of God in Christ (2 Corinthians 5:21), so I'm asking You to send me the land You have for me. Bring me my inheritance of land that You desire me to have. Bring me the perfect land at the perfect time, and help me to dwell in it forever.
Father God, thank You for my land. Thank You for giving me bold faith to believe You mean what You say. I know I have received my land, and I give You all the praise.
In Jesus' name, amen.”

Shamekah Shaw says
Thank you Abba Father for this word. I actually had a dream about a week ago in which I was standing at a piece of land with a man I didn’t know and my cousin and his wife. It seemed as though I or we were acquiring the land. The man there wanted to bless and pray over the land first. As he did that, I began to pray over my cousin’s wife’s womb. She wants children, but there have been many miscarriages in the past. I believe there is nothing impossible with God.
Jamie Rohrbaugh says
Wow. REALLY cool dream. May it come to pass according to Father’s will! Thanks so much for sharing, Shamekah!
Karen says
I pray and ask in Jesus name for are house right now gets favor to pay it off. This is are dream home and forever home we said it when we moved here 10 years ago. It’s a lot more mortgage than what we are use to paying,but we have managed to pay every month for 10 years. In that 10 years, Praying and hoping to get it paid off somehow. This house is a true blessing for the whole family.Than I came across this prayer of house inheritance. I would have never thought I’m so glad and grateful God put this blog on your heart . Gave me even more hope and faith.I’m praying and asking for a house inheritance to pay are mortgage off. In the blood of Jesus Christ I ask amen
Rebecca L Jones says
As I have relatives living with me or me with, however you look at it, I definitely need favor. I would love to have my own place, and a guest house or even a couple of trailers to help older relatives. I dreamed about going to Texas, and then telling my mother I was going to buy her a house, we live in Ga.
Jamie Rohrbaugh says
Ah Texas. That would be wonderful. I love Texas. Father can do it, sis. Just keep asking Him and standing on His Word. He will give you His best!
Lillie Belle says
This is one is very near and dear to my heart. Thank you for posting it, Jamie!!
The Lord has given me land already (40 acres)… plus the desires of my heart… my horsey girl who is right outside my door (and some stupid goats and my chickens). His promises are REAL and TRUE!!!
I did pray this prayer today for the adjoining land next to ours, which is 67.67 more acres!! I would love to have a ministry for the LORD, but I am waiting on HIM to reveal all of the details to me. I don’t want to go into further debt to acquire the land next store and start HIS ministry, so I did indeed pray this prayer today.
I can’t wait to see what HE does!! It is so exciting!!
God bless you!!
P.S. Wyoming is BEAUTIFUL… My hubby has been looking for land there for over a year… We are currently in Colorado, and I keep telling him that the LORD planted us HERE! I don’t want to move further north. Plus, the wind in Wyoming is just the same if not worse than what we experience here on the high plains of Colorado… Keep us posted on what happens with your little adventure.
Jamie Rohrbaugh says
Hi Lillie! I love Colorado too. 🙂 Such an amazing place; it’s one of my favorite places to go in all the world! But Wyoming, I have to admit, is my absolute favorite. But I am glad you get to enjoy the wonderful plains of Colorado! I pray that Papa would give you the additional land also! You can grow a lot of goats on 107.67 acres. 😉
Much love to you today.
Nune says
Just prayed this prayer with my kids. God is amazing!! Amen! Amen! And Amen!!
Jamie Rohrbaugh says
Yay! Let the land come forth, in Jesus’ name!
André says
This is such a wonderful prayer. It is childlike and filled with great expectations.
Jamie Rohrbaugh says
Yes indeed. I felt like Father just wants us to believe! Not to wax eloquent, but just to believe! Thank You Lord!
Thank you for reading, as always, brother André!
Salise says
Hallelujah. This word is so relevant. Our Pastor declared that this year is our year of perfectly commanded blessings and Deuteronomy 28:8 says the Lord will command the blessing on me, in my storehouses and He will bless me in the LAND which the Lord my God is GIVING me. Your prophetic words are always right on time and confirming God’s word to me. I want a big house with land in the Central London neighborhood the Lord told me about over a year ago. Now is the time for it to come to pass. And I somehow actually opened up on my phone a brochure for a house I loved today. I will print it and put the bible verses above on it and remind God of his promises. May the Lord bless us indeed with Land for us and our children.
Jamie Rohrbaugh says
Amen. May that house come quickly! (I love London too, by the way.) 🙂
Rumbidzai Mwedzi says
thank you for the Prophetic Word, l will keep on praying this Prophetic Prayer until l get my share of my LAND INHERITANCE from my PAPA GOD….
with God nothing is ever ever impossible…
Jamie Rohrbaugh says
That’s right! Nothing is impossible!
Tiffany says
Thank you…this is confirmation. Have had a dream about land years ago and recently had a dream showing a big house with ‘s on the end meaning house’s. God is truly showing himself to me.
Laura Renee says
Amen! I receive this right now – right on word in Jesus name! My husband and I went to look at 8.27 acres and as we were walking the land I heard the Lord say “The Promised Land” Later that day the Lord said “Land of milk and honey” I claim that land with the houses on it as our Promised Land of milk and honey and I decree and declare – no weapon formed against us shall prosper in Jesus’ name! Thank you for your obedience to the Lord to put out this amazing confirming word! We don’t have to know how we just must have faith and trust Papa Abba to give us the desires of our heart!
Jamie Rohrbaugh says
Very cool. If that’s the land Father has for you, I pray He’d deliver it to you so fast it’s like greased lightning! In Jesus’ name!
Ronda says
Thank you Jesus you know what my husband and I are going through and I believe that we have this land that was left to us I believe that this is a word for us and I claim it and continue to praise you for it and I know that you are fighting for us thank you Almighty Father I trust you !!!
Mary Lott says
Thank you Jaime. This is confirmation. I am currently living with someone who took me in when I had nothing. I believe the Lord has two properties for me, one in my home state of Maryland and one on the beach in Florida. The word is full of land scriptures. Think Big and believe for Double!!
I pray you get that Wyoming land!! Bless you. Love your blogs.
Jamie Rohrbaugh says
I do pray that Father would bring you that place of your own, friend. He can do it! And thank you for the prayers and for reading!
Fran Green says
Thank you Jaime. Several years ago the Lord spoke to that He “would build His servant a house.” Just recently I have been speaking this word and believing He will direct me to it. I am also believing
Jamie Rohrbaugh says
I believe with you on your promise, friend. Let it be so, Father!
Kendra Pearl says
I love your articles but your site has so many pop ups that I can’t read the articles to the end. Sad.
Jamie Rohrbaugh says
Hi Kendra. Thanks for reading. As far as over-laying ads go, there should only be one ad at the bottom, and the bar at the top which is my email signup form. I’m sorry if the ads inconvenience you, and I totally understand. However, please know that those ads are one of the biggest things that help to keep this blog online. They are the equivalent of nearly 100 monthly partners. Thanks for understanding.
Pearl Banks says
This is amazing to read this tonight because in bible study this Tuesday night the Word was given on Ps 37:3-4 and even before i got there me and a friend was talking an Holy Spirit spoke the same Words. I was thinking about someone giving me the deed to the house i had been looking at just tonight. I have also been given the scripture Mat19: 26 more then once this week also. So now I thank Heavenly Father for the land inheritances that i shall now receive from Him. Thank you so much for your obedience to Him.
Jamie Rohrbaugh says
Very cool! Holy Spirit tends to say the same things to everybody across the Body at the same time! So glad you are hearing and listening to Him!
Shirley Cardoza says
Jamie, I have been asking the Lord to bless me with Land as I cannot buy agriculture land in india unless I am a farmer or someone in my family is and I can only buy NA land, hence I was thinking land can be only gotten in heritance in my case and I don’t have anyone not do I have the money but today as I was desperately searching I found your website and I praise God for his promise and I believe he will bless me with land soon. All glory to him who is forever faithful and just, his Mercy and favour is for lifetime. Thank you Jamie. Love this site and exploring it. God bless you and be safe till his return. Amen
Jamie Rohrbaugh says
I pray our Father would bless you with the best land He could possibly give you! In Jesus’ name!
Valerie Pendergrass says
Hi, Jamie! I love your blogs and I’m so glad that I found you! There’s a powerful anointing on what you impart. I’ve been praying for a house for years. I’ve come close a couple of times but foolishly allowed doubt and circumstances to rob me of the blessing that God wanted to give me. So it’s really encouraging to read this. Where were you 20 years ago when I first started to suffer from depression (ha ha)? I was even about to give up again because my prayers for a home in recent months seem to have gone unanswered. Although I may be looking in the wrong place.
Juli Rudd says
Hello Jamie
Thank you for sharing this word on land inheritance!! I am believing the Lord for land, without going into debt for. We serve a GREAT AND MIGHTY GOD!!! Also shared this with my sister who is believing for a specific 30 acres of land for her family!! He is faithful!!!!
Wyoming is on my bucket list to visit one day?
Tamie Tyra says
Wow Sister! I had never seen this prayer until today. Sunday afternoon after spending time in His word with a sweet sister in Christ who He had me share your blog with, Father had me drive past land that He has been showing me for a few years. As I drove past this land there were whispers in my spirit, I had an overwhelming feeling of ownership in this land. He showed me a vision of a swing hanging from a tree with that perfect level L shaped branch and I heard all my grandchildren laughing. It was raining in the physical but as I approached this land Father covered it with a golden light. The land is a glenn it has beautiful rolling hills, huge trees in all the right places and all I could say was please Daddy, please. As I drove away the grey of the rain returned but I felt the light within the vehicle. Today as He led me to this prayer, I now understand, the inheritance I have received when my physical father passed was given quickly, how much more so when this land inheritance is from the death and resurrection of our Lord and Saviour. I am believing in receiving this land inheritance from Abba Father and I will not sway in my faith. For He provides all my needs and in Him do I abide. For Love is the greatest gift.
Henry says
Thank you for the message. My late grandmother left two things for me: A gospel and a land title deed of her house in South China. She passed away in 1987 April 4th in Singapore. I believe she was born around 1916/1917. She left China for Singapore sometime in 1956/1958 and never went back to the place of birth. It was her last wish in life to have her things from China brought back to Singapore. My parents and uncle were old. None of them could travel. I was given an almost impossible task because I have never been to that part of China and i didn’t believe I would locate the house. On Feb 24th, 2013, I travelled to South China and eventually found the house where she was born. Everything inside was intact and protected by her neighbour. I brought all her belongings back to Singapore. Among them, a gospel and a land title which was handed to me.
I became a believer later and was baptized on 2016 Sep 11th.
Pamela Smith says
I have been praying the verses in Deuteronomy 6 for years. And for landS, plural! I am so excited that the time has come. Wooo hoooooooooo!!
LaShaun says
Jami,
I woke up this morning needing a word from God. It’s my heart desire to own land to build our dream home on. This will be our final home and so we want land to foam on, dream on, work from and sing the praises of God from. I was searching the internet for prayers for land because I’m so over whelmed that I dont even have the words to form a prayer to pray…… but God! Some how I came across your blog….LOOK AT JESUS! I balled liked a baby? because when you sat down to write this, God knew that on January 30th at 7:35am, during my coffee time with God I would find exactly what I needed. Thanks You! For being obedient and allowing The Spirit of God to use you, to bless His Children.
I’m encouraged… I’m getting my land?
God Bless you??
~La
Kgadi says
Wow wow wow praise be to God. There is land which my mother has wanted to purchase for many years, today in 2018 I still go and view the land and pray over it , and guess what it is still for sale. I pray the inheritance of God over my life, I believe that God’s word doesn’t not lie. Thank you for the scripture and for the word. Stand with me in prayer as I claim my rightful inheritance. My mother might have failed or lacked hope and faith to purchase it but God the Father has given me the authority to run with it. God’s blessings are truly generational because I am still praying and believing for the Same Gift my mother has believed for.
Thank you for the word, please stand with me in prayer
Xx

Rachael says
Hello, it’s such a blessing to get this prayer. I really really needed it. I do desire land and right now a new home with lots of land. I just wonder when will you know your getting the land you prayed for? Has anyone testified that they receive a home/land after saying this prayer?
Jackie Lewis says
Hi Jamie! I love your Land Inheritances blog. It is timely and beautiful, as well as intriguing and motivational. Your play on words kept me smiling as I continued to read. God sent me to your blog, as I am believing Him for 40 acres of land in the state of Georgia (North).
May God’s grace and love and the communion of the Holy Spirit rest, rule and abide upon you and your family! Be blessed!

Shelley Bouldin says
This is a great blog. To Him be the GLORY! Holy spirit lead me to your blog when he gave me the “witty inventions” scripture. I love the way He speaks. As for the land, I just received this link on FB yesterday May 26, 2019. I was prompted to review in my journal and confirmed that the Lord began to speak to me about land inheritance in early 2017. As I’m looking at the comments I see most are dated 2017 as well. His timing is perfect! Holy Spirit literally lead me to several parcels I am to build on as inheritance to me and my children’s children. Thank you! This is a great faith booster for me. It has lifted my arms to keep believing and fight the good fight of faith. Yes there will be more than imagined and owned debt free! God bless your obedience! Love in Christ, Shelley.
Sandra Granados says
God has been stirring up some things in our hearts that we couldn’t exactly put words to & then we read a “word” from Judy Jacobs a couple of days ago about God doing something massive within the next 6 days … then we just read this “word” from you and It’s like an explosion going off inside of is!!! God is about to do something great…massive for His children! PRAISE GOD!
Thank you for your obedience to write down what Father God wants His children to know!
Olivia Dindi says

Hallelujah! “How beautiful on the mountains are the feet of those who bring good news, who proclaim peace, who bring good tidings, who proclaim salvation, who say to Zion, “Your God reigns!” ISAIAH 52:7
Thank you Jamie for your love for Christ.
As I was praying that the Holy Spirit lead me to a lesson on Land – since my Church is fasting for it (so am I, today the 11/01/2020).
I came upon this beautiful write up/lesson; and Wow! A shift has taken place – it led me to the very heart of God about what He thinks about Land and what intentions we are supposed to have….and what Abba Father has about inheritance towards His Children…
Beautiful!
