A prayer could be said at anytime and anywhere. However, fervent prayer often mandates the need to withdraw from the typical hustle and bustle of a busy life in-to a quiet spot . So, find a space in your home and shut its door to everything else but prayer. Once you have built your altar, make sure you’re keeping it clean.
These provide a good deal of space as well as levels that you can use for different purposes. We are allowed to judge if we have DISCERNMENT. Are you telling me that this author, this, "mighty man of God," is actually weak in his faith, weak in the knees? But it is written, "Open your mouth, judge righteously, defend the rights of the poor and needy."
How to build an altar of prayer in your home
Switch out the objects to fit the liturgical year. Maybe during Advent have a nativity set, during Lent a crown of thorns, and during Easter a resurrection set. For May, you can make an altar that has mostly Mary themes, and whatever Saint statues you have can come out for the month of that saint’s feast day. Choose a patron saint for your family each year and display a statue, candle, or prayer card on your family altar all year. When the whole family including children starts to learn to pray, the enemy loses his hold on such a home and God’s presence picks up residence.

Scientifically, it has also been proven that burning sage removes bacteria from the air. An altar invites us to reconnect with the deepest parts of ourselves, for an altar is a window to the Divine. It opens the channels of communication to the world of Spirit.
Where you place your altar and how many you set up will likely change over the years depending upon your intuition, moods, and the seasons. You can use your altar as a place to express gratitude. You can do a secular altar with your family to identify areas where you are grateful and show physical representations of them in your home at your altar.
Work With Your Altar
Any smooth, steady surface will do, though. Just make sure it's up high if pets or kids will be around the space and that it's not a commonly used surface like a kitchen table or counter. You'll want to get into the habit of leaving your items just-so. Moving them "out of the way" isn't ideal for the energy you're hoping to create.
He will actually open a gateway to and from Heaven over that place, and you’ll have supernatural encounters with Him there. Place your mala or rosary beads on your altar when they’re not in use. Hanging your beads on your murtis keeps their energy sacred.
Hough it's become a mainstay on certain spiritually inclined Pinterest boards, there's nothing new about an energetic altar. The concept of using altars in such a way is a component of a number of religions, including Christianity, Buddhism, Hinduism, Paganism, and Judaism. Historically, altars are used as spiritual hubs where objects of worship rest, and you can practice whatever you believe within them. If that’s happening to you, there’s no harm in resetting and refurbishing your altar. Give them, and the altar itself, a deep clean. Reevaluate what purpose you want your altar to serve and the location it’s placed and the objects you want to include, then rebuild your altar.
What rituals or spell work looks like to you with depends on your personal practice but this is definitely a common reason why people build altars. It’s a good idea to leave a clear space for temporary items. Having a space already cleared for this purpose means that you won’t be upsetting the order of your altar when you need a little space.
However, if you travel often or don’t have a place to set up a permanent altar, you can also make one in a box or pouch and take it with you where you go. When creating your Altar, set an intention as to the purpose of the altar. It may be for connecting with your higher self, for abundance, love, or healing, or it may be an altar related to all of the above. As you create your altar, keep in mind the left side is the feminine side, the receiving side, and the right is the masculine and the giving. The majority of people who use their altar daily find that their creative inspiration and intuition become heightened. If you're a writer experiencing writer's block or an artist lacking motivation, setting up an altar space for meditation or gratitude may benefit you.
You may already have an altar that you built intuitively without even realizing it. Maybe there’s a mantlepiece in your home, a corner of your work desk, a windowsill, or a shelf where some favored trinkets have found a home. Perhaps over time, it has become a focal point of positive energy, making you smile every time you walk by.
An altar serves as a visual representation of your relationship with the gods by providing a space for you to build it. They can be covered with objects to help you practice meditation. Incense, candles, singing bowls, essential oils, mala beads, and other objects that encourage quiet and concentration are among the things that encourage focus and quiet. You frequently place a meditation table in the center of a room or space dedicated to meditation. You can have a Me Altar on your dresser, where your favorite comfort novels, old love letters, and rose quartz wands sit together to create a harmonious environment. The package may also include symbolic trinkets you value in addition to the items you are requesting.
After your altar space has been cleaned (physically and/or spiritually), take the sacred objects you have gathered and consider how you’d like to arrange them on your altar. I know it was not accidental because our God is not of such. Apparently when I built my retirement house, I thought I should dedicate it in a special way to God, but did not know how. Led by the holy spirit I apportioned my bedroom, and am grateful with the space, that came out.
