Twelve Ways to Pray for Your Child
Pray:
-
That nothing will hinder your child from accepting Christ as
his personal savior early in life. (Matthew 19:14)
-
That your child will learn to know the true and living God and
have a deep desire to do God’s will all his life. (Psalm 119:26, 30, 34 –35)
-
That, as your child hears stories from the Bible, a love for
God and His Word develops and becomes the basis for his entire decision
making. (Ecclesiastes 12:1; Psalm 71:17)
-
That your child will develop a keen sense of what is right and
wrong and will abhor evil and cling to that which is good. (Romans 12:9;
Psalm 139:23-24; 51:10)
-
For your child’s total development: an increase in wisdom
(mentally), in stature (physically) and in favor with God (spiritually) and
man (socially). (Luke 2:52)
-
That God will create in your child a thankful heart and
positive mental attitude. (Psalm 126:2-3; Romans 8:31)

life. (John 17:15; Psalm 121)

enable him to overcome them before they become sinful habits. (Psalm 120:2;
119:133; I John 1:8-9)
-
That God would make your child successful in the work God has
planned for him to do. (Psalm 118:25;139: 9-10; Ephesians 2:10)
-
That
your child will have and value a strong sense of belonging to a family that is
loving and dwells together in unity. (Psalm 133; Colossians 3:12-14)
-
That your child will respect those in authority over him.
(Romans 13:1; Ephesians 7:1-4)
-
That your child’s entire life will be a testimony of the
greatness and love of Jesus Christ. (Philippians 2:15-16; 1 Thessalonians
5:23)
