Prayer For Our Children

    “I thank you Father for the gift you have given of my children. I bring them before your throne of grace and mercy, thanking You that You will perfect that which concerns me. (Ps., 138:8) I thank you Father, that You formed them in my womb, that you planned for their birth, (Jer. 1:5) and that from the moment of conception they have been alive into You.  
           Thank you Father, that You have lifted_______ up above those that rise up against them (Ps. 18:45), that You deliver them from the evil man, and preserve them from the violent man. (Ps. 140:1) Thank you that You keep_______from any trap, which has been laid for them, and that the wicked will fall together into their own nets, while pass over them and escape.  In Jesus Name, Amen”    


Prayer for Adult Children

One morning as I was praying for sons and daughters of our Personal Prayer Partners the Holy Spirit revealed a prayer strategy that I believe will encourage and help you as you intercede on behalf of this generation.  
           “Father, in the name of Jesus, we bring our adult children before the Throne of Grace. First of all, we ask you to forgive us for the times we have prayed for them with selfish motives, and hindered your answers to prayer. Forgive us for our self-righteous attitude. It wasn’t too long ago that we were mired in that old stagnant life of sin...but you embraced us with immense mercy and with your incredible love. O, LORD, remember Your covenant with Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. According to Your covenant Your Spirit is upon us, and Your words, which You have put in our mouth, shall not depart from our mouth, or the mouth of our descendants nor from the mouth of our descendants’ descendants from this time forth and forevermore. We put on Your full armor and having done all to stand, we stand on behalf of our families. Fearlessly we enforce the triumphant victory of our Lord Jesus Christ against Satan and his destructive strategies. We are here to build up the wall and stand in the gap before You, Father, asking for Your mercy to triumph over judgment.  
          Lord you are great and awesome, and we fight for our sons, our daughters, our spouses and our houses. On the authority of Your promise we declare that You will contend with him who contends with us, and You will give safety to our children, save them and ease them day by day…. You are our LORD, our Savior, our Redeemer, and the Mighty One of Jacob. We proclaim our children as a heritage and a reward from You. We ask You, Father, draw them to repentance with Your goodness, and give them as an inheritance in the Lord Jesus Christ. He shed his blood for them that they might be saved, and Your arm is not shortened that You cannot save. Holy Spirit, we ask You to convince and convict them of sin, righteousness and judgment. May our sons and daughters repent and be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins; and they will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. According to Your promise we are asking You to pour Your Spirit and Your blessings on our children. Our sons and daughters shall prophesy; our young men shall see visions. Create in them a love for Your Word. Lord, thank you for choosing our children before the foundation of the world and calling them in their youth. Our children are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, and a holy nation. They are Your own special people. Father, confirm Your word and hallow Your name in the lives of our children for Your glory and honor. In Jesus Name, Amen”

“Thank you, Father, for Your wisdom, revelation, and understanding upon us as parents to lead and direct ______into your paths of righteousness that they might dwell in the secret place of the Most High.  Because _______has made You their refuge and their dwelling place, there shall no evil befall them, for You give Your angels charge over _______to accompany and defend in all their ways.

(I Jn 2:28) Then God’s peace will be theirs, that tranquil state of a soul assured of its salvation through Christ, so will fear nothing from God, and be content with their earthly lot, that peace which transcends all understanding, shall garrison and mount guard over their hearts and minds in Christ Jesus. (Phil 4:7)  In Jesus Name, Amen”
