Thank You for allowing winds to come against my children. For it is in weathering their storms that they develop the strength and character necessary to succeed throughout their lives.
James 1:2-4

Endurance simply means outlasting the problem. Help my children endure the hardship they are facing today. Place warriors alongside them that don’t quit so my children will know the hope and joy endurance brings.
Hebrews 10:36

Let my children rejoice in triumph of their everyday battles and not become weary … it is a sign that God is preparing them for greater battles that will not only result in rich blessing for their own lives but eventually advance the Kingdom of Heaven.
1Samuel 17:37

May my children wake up today and see only two people groups, those in Christ Jesus and those not. I pray they lavish love on both groups of people.
Galatians 3:28

When my children experience the majesty and beauty of the natural world, may they remember Christ and know that He is the restorer of their souls … that He is altogether lovely … and their friend!
Song of Songs 5:16

Give my children a humble spirit that they may come before You and ask You to help their weakness of faith … so that You can begin transforming their heart and teaching them that all things are possible to those that believe.
Mark 9:23-24

Let my children be grateful. Teach them the ‘reinforcement principle’ … they get more of what they acknowledge … so that they begin to routinely thank the ones they love for even the smallest favor. They already practice common courtesy when they are in public, thanking coaches, the lunch lady, the checkout clerks … let them bring that gratitude home!
Romans 13:7

For their own good, I pray my children make up their minds to walk with You and follow Your plan!
Ephesians 1:11

I pray my children humble themselves and begin to understand their relationship with You. We are Your tools and You are the master craftsman. You give us talents and the will to develop them … You open doors and bring provision … we MUST give all glory to You … or we will fall.
Isaiah 9:12-18

Lord, I pray my children put all doubts aside regarding the state of their salvation. They have asked You to be their Lord and Savior through the sacrifice of Christ Jesus … and their hearts are being transformed as they work to remove sin from their lives (however slowly … teenagers!) Once the doubt is gone, they will truly be free to live wholly for you …and become the effective people You made them to be while on this planet.
Hebrews 5:12-14, Acts 10:43
