5 PSALM PRAYERS FOR OUR SONS & DAUGHTERS

The Psalms are soothing to the soul and there is power in praying them over our children. Prayer changes the lives of our children, and praying the words from the Psalms is especially powerful. Today, I’m sharing five of the prayers from my latest book, The Desperate Mom’s Prayer Book. I hope these prayers are a blessing to you.

Lord, thank You for loving my children more than I do. I ask You to go before them and be at their right hand. Prepare a divine path for them and let them follow You wholeheartedly. Take away all their fears and fill them with an unshakable faith. Help my children live courageously and let them be bold carriers of the gospel message of Jesus Christ. I pray in Christ’s name. Amen.

I have set the Lord continually before me; because He is at my right hand, I will not be shaken. Psalm 16:8

Lord, thank You for being the strength and shield of my children. Protect them from the tactics of the enemy through the power and blood of Jesus Christ. Help my children to trust You more. Fill their hearts with joy today and every day. Let them sing the praises of Your goodness. I pray in Christ’s name. Amen.

The Lord is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in Him, and I am helped; therefore my heart exults, and with my song I shall thank Him. Psalm 28:7

Lord, thank You for being a refuge and strength for my children. Help them draw near to You every day and trust You in times of trouble. Help them to walk away from fear and to rely on You to do miracles in their lives. Let them rest in Your presence and be filled with Your peace always. I pray in Christ’s name. Amen

God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Psalm 46:1

Lord, thank You for being a shield to our sons and daughters. I ask You to surround them with Your glory and give them grace for each day of their lives. Help them to live with integrity and excellence in everything they do. Bless them with good things as they walk uprightly each day.  I pray in Your name, Christ. Amen.

For the Lord God is a sun and shield; the Lord gives grace and glory; no good thing does He withhold from those who walk uprightly. Psalm 84:11

Lord, thank You for being a strong anchor for my children. I ask You to help them in every area of their lives. Let Your favor rest upon them always. Help them to call upon You for help each day and be grounded in the truth of the Bible. Establish the work of their hands and help them to succeed in all they do. I pray in Christ’s name. Amen.

Let the favor of the Lord our God be upon us; and confirm for us the work of our hands; yes, confirm the work of our hands. Psalm 90:17

A PRAYER FOR AMERICA

As we celebrate “Independence Day” in America, let us pray passionately for God’s plans to come forth for the United States.

Even though there is turmoil happening in America, I know that God has not given up on us and He has great plans for this nation. I feel led by Christ to share a prayer that I wrote years ago.

Dear Heavenly Father,

Thank You for Your amazing grace and mercy. We come to You and humbly ask that You keep Your hand on this nation. We are sorry for leaving You out of our decision making so many times. We realize that our country is in danger and we need You desperately to intervene. Let us turn away from all that draws us away from Your love and return to You wholeheartedly. Let us be unified and walk with brotherly love toward one another.

I believe it is Your desire to see this nation thrive and be restored. Let us rise up and be the nation that You always dreamed we would be. Let us show those around us that You are compassionate and abounding in love. Raise our country into a mighty nation and let us be a bright light in the world. Let us live for You purposefully and passionately. We ask You to protect us from calamity. We trust You to do great and mighty things in this nation. We ask You to continue blessing America and let us be a blessing to all nations of the earth. We love You and place our hope in You alone. We pray in Christ’s name. Amen.

HAPPY 4th of JULY!
