Place a burning desire in my children’s hearts to read your Word… for every answer to every problem they are facing today can be found in their Bible. The printed words are like pipes, transporting life giving water into their souls… but they must learn to connect themselves to the source of Your joy, comfort,…
I pray my children NEVER ignore the poor… for he who shuts his ear to the cry of the poor will also cry himself and not be answered. Pr 21:13
Make my children strong… may they NEVER opt for the easy way out and detach from people. Christ gave his life for people… and we were left here on this earth for the purpose of connecting! Mt 24:12, Jn 17:18
Let my children experience the exquisite peace and contentment that You have given to me. Then they will crave more and seek opportunities for righteous living … for Your confidential communion and secret counsel are only with those who are upright and in right standing with You. Proverbs 3:32
Give my children a wholesome dread of displeasing You so they will be intrinsically motivated to obey Your commands. Let them experience the light free feeling that flows from doing the ‘right’ thing so that they crave more and truly begin to understand that obedience is not only the root of character but the foundation…
Surround my children with people who celebrate and worship You. May they love and be kind to all people, especially those who don’t know You… keep them from adopting the ways of those who do not trust You… so they do not fall victim to the enemy. Jos 23:14
