A Mother's Prayer

Heavenly Father,

I come to you in the name of your Son, Jesus. Humbly I bow at your throne of grace.

Today I lift up my children to you. My prayer is this, Lord. Help my children realize their need of your love early in life and teach me, Lord, how to keep them close to you. 

Let me be the best example of a godly person in their eyes. Keep them from a worldly culture of sin; keep and preserve their life with your angelic host.

Give me the wisdom, Lord, to instruct my children in your ways and your truth. I pray they would choose other godly children as their friends and silence the voice of worldly temptations.

I pray and believe my children will resist evil and run from peers that do so. Always protect and keep my children from evil, and draw them close to you, Jesus.

I pray their hearts will be ablaze with fire for you, Lord, as they keep

up their pursuit of your love.

Don’t allow them to grow cold through worldly influences and ways of the unrighteous.

[Psalm 119:92 TPT] “Because your words are my deepest delight, I didn’t give up when all else was lost.”

I believe my children will make right choices because their hearts and minds are pure before you, Lord.

I believe that you, Father, cannot lie and that your Promises are “Yes and Amen” in Christ; therefore, I trust you with my children’s salvation and eternal life through the eternal shed blood of Christ our Lord. [1 John 5:14-15 TPT] 

Since we have this confidence, we can also have great boldness before Him, for if we ask anything agreeable to His will, He will hear us.

And if we know that He hears us in whatever we ask, we also know that we have obtained the requests we ask of Him. [1 John 5:14-15 TPT] 

[Numbers 6:24-27 KJV] “The Lord bless thee, and keep thee: The Lord make his face shine upon thee, and be gracious unto thee: The Lord lift up his countenance upon thee and give thee peace. And they shall put my name upon the children of Israel, and I will bless them!”

God’s promise to us is to bless the children of the righteous family who belong to Him. Amen.

Love Always Wins,
