Andrew Wommack Inspired Daily Prayer | November 14, 2026

The people we live with often hear our most tired words. A short reply at breakfast when the kids cannot find their shoes. A sharp tone in the evening when your husband or wife asks a simple question at the wrong moment. You did not plan to sound that way. It just came out, and now the kitchen feels a little colder than it did a minute ago.

This Andrew Wommack inspired daily prayer for November 14, 2026 asks God for gentle words at home and the patience to choose them, especially when you are tired, rushed, or under pressure.

Today’s Scripture

“A soft answer turneth away wrath: but grievous words stir up anger.” — Proverbs 15:1, KJV

This proverb is short, but it describes something we have all seen. A calm answer can take the heat out of an argument. A harsh word can turn a small disagreement into an evening of silence. The difference is often only a few seconds and a few words.

A soft answer does not mean pretending that nothing is wrong. You can still say, “I am frustrated,” or “We need to talk about this.” Gentleness is about how you say it. It means lowering your voice instead of raising it, choosing words that respect the other person, and leaving room for them to answer without feeling attacked.

Think of the person you are most likely to be short with today. It might be a child, a spouse, an aging parent, or a roommate. Hold that person in mind as you pray, and ask God to help you speak to them the way He speaks to you: honestly, but with love.

A Prayer for Gentle Words at Home

Lord, thank You for the people I share my home and my days with. Thank You for the meals we eat together, the jokes only we understand, and the ordinary routines that make a house feel like home. Forgive me for the times I have treated these people as if they were in my way instead of a gift You placed in my life.

You know the moments when I get impatient. When I am tired, hungry, or running late, my words come out harder than I mean them. Slow me down before I answer. Give me a quiet breath before I speak. Help me hear what the other person is really asking, not just the tone I imagine behind it. When someone else is upset, let my voice be the calm one in the room.

Where I have already spoken harshly, give me the humility to say I am sorry. Help me not to explain it away or blame my stress. Let my apology be simple and sincere: “I spoke to you unkindly, and I am sorry.” Then help me listen to how my words made them feel, without getting defensive.

Teach me to use my words to build up the people I love. Remind me to say thank you for the small things, to notice when someone has tried hard, and to speak encouragement out loud instead of only thinking it. Let my children, my family, and my friends hear more “well done” from me than “why didn’t you.”

Fill our home with Your peace today. Let kindness be the normal way we talk to each other, not something we save for guests or coworkers. When tension rises, remind me of this prayer and of Your patience with me. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Pray Through Your Day

Carry this prayer with you in three short moments today.

Morning: Lord, before the first conversation of the day, set a guard over my mouth. Let the first words my family hears from me be warm and patient, not hurried or sharp.

Midday: Father, if tension has already crept into my day, help me lower my voice and soften my tone. Remind me that a gentle answer can turn the whole afternoon around.

Evening: Lord, thank You for every kind word I was able to speak today. Where I missed it, give me the humility to apologize before I sleep, and let our home rest in peace tonight.

One Small Step Today

Before you answer someone at home today, pause for one full breath. Choose a calm tone, even if the topic is difficult. If you spoke sharply to someone yesterday, go to them today and say a simple “I’m sorry.” Then say one specific thing you appreciate about them.
