Prayer for your Children

Heavenly Father, I praise and worship You for Your great glory and majesty. Thank You for the children You have blessed us with. You are an awesome God. You reign from heaven above with wisdom, power and love. I pray for our children, their families, all generations and all our extended family. I pray as their father and stepfather with the authority You have given me as the head of the household. I ask the Holy Spirit to soften their hearts towards Jesus and tear the veil of deceit and lies of the evil one from their hearts and break the chains he has on them.

I pray for Your divine angelic safety and protection to cover our families. I pray Your words from scripture, Isaiah 44:3, “For I will pour water on the thirsty land, and streams on the dry ground; I will pour out my Spirit on your offspring, and my blessing on your descendants.”  Holy Spirit reveal Yourself to them and flood their hearts with a desire to surrender their lives to You and have a life changing encounter with the Savior. Holy Spirit burn Your fire in our children, their families, all generations and our extended family with Your wisdom, discernment, guidance and direction. Turn us away from our worldly culture and truly follow You.

Lead them to a true and lasting spiritual awakening, repentance, Your Amazing Grace, revival, mercy, restoration and a desire to fall deeply in love with You. For those of us that know You, I ask that we seek a deeper relationship with You. Holy Spirit stand guard over us, help us hear, understand, speak and act on the wisdom of Your discerning voice and lead us all home.

Heavenly Father, bind the evil one, break the chains he has on all of us and put him behind us. Wipe the scales from our eyes so we will know Your truth and not be deceived. Post Your angel army around us with impeccable protection and wash us in the blood of the Lamb and dress us in the armor of God (Ephesians 6: 14-17).

We surrender this day to You. We can’t live without You. May our lives glorify You today. I lift these prayers up to You in the precious name of Jesus Christ our Savior and King. Amen

Psalm 91:9-13, “If you say, “The Lord is my refuge,” and you make the Most High your dwelling, no harm will overtake you, no disaster will come near your tent.

For he will command his angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways; they will lift you up in their hands, so that you will not strike your foot against a stone. 

You will tread on the lion and the cobra; you will trample the great lion and the serpent.”

Psalm 103:13-20 “As a father has compassion on his children, so the Lord has compassion on those who fear him; for he knows how we are formed, he remembers that we are dust. The life of mortals is like grass, they flourish like a flower of the field; the wind blows over it and it is gone, and its place remembers it no more. But from everlasting to everlasting the Lord’s love is with those who fear him, and his righteousness with their children’s children— with those who keep his covenant and remember to obey his precepts. The Lord has established his throne in heaven, and his kingdom rules overall. Praise the Lord, you his angels, you mighty ones who do his bidding,    who obey his word.”

Acts 2:38-39 “Peter replied, “Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. And you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. The promise is for you and your children and for all who are far off—for all whom the Lord our God will call.”

Luke 1:50 “His mercy extends to those who fear him, from generation to generation.”

Psalm 100:5 “For the Lord is good and his love endures forever; his faithfulness continues through all generations.”

Genesis 22:18 “and through your offspring all nations on earth will be blessed, because you have obeyed me.”
