PRAYER FOR CHILDREN TO BE SAID BY PARENTS I pray for my child, - TopicsExpress

PRAYER FOR CHILDREN TO BE SAID BY PARENTS I pray for my child, ________. I don’t want him/her to do the right thing just because he/she has to. Rather, I ask that You would bless ________ with an obedient heart that desires to obey You and others in authority. Please help ________ to keep his/her way pure by living according to Your Word. May ________ be diligent in seeking You with all of his/her heart so that he/she will not stray from Your commands. I pray that because ________ has hidden Your Word in his/her heart, he/she would be kept from sinning against You (Psalm 119:9-11). As ________ grows up, I pray he/she would guard Your teachings as the apple of his/her eye. Bind them on ________’s fingers, Lord, and write them on the tablet of his/her heart (Proverbs 7:1-3). We read in 1 John 2:5-6, “But if anyone obeys His word, God’s love is truly made complete in him. This is how we know we are in Him: Whoever claims to live in Him must walk as Jesus did.” This is my prayer for our family – that we will obey Your Word and walk as Jesus walked, in complete obedience to You. Amen
