Little Ones
Praying for
Our Children
Children are a heritage from the Lord. Lift them up in prayer each day — for protection, for faith, for wisdom, and for the future God has prepared for them.
The Foundation
"Suffer the little children to come unto me, and forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God."
— Mark 10:14
"Lo, children are an heritage of the Lord: and the fruit of the womb is his reward."
— Psalm 127:3
"Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it."
— Proverbs 22:6
"Take heed that ye despise not one of these little ones; for I say unto you, That in heaven their angels do always behold the face of my Father which is in heaven."
— Matthew 18:10
Verse of the Day
"I have no greater joy than to hear that my children walk in truth."
— 3 John 1:4
This verse reminds parents that our primary goal and ultimate satisfaction should be found in our children's spiritual growth rather than their worldly achievements. When we prioritize nurturing a heart for God, we find a lasting peace that transcends the challenges of daily parenting.

Lifting Them Up Each Day

A Prayer for Wisdom
Father, grant my children wisdom from above. Give them discernment to choose what is right, courage to stand for truth, and humility to learn. May they seek Your guidance in every decision and trust in Your unfailing love. Amen.
A Prayer for Character
Lord, shape my children into vessels of honor. Fill them with kindness, patience, honesty, and compassion. Teach them to love others as You have loved us. May their character reflect the fruit of Your Spirit in all they say and do. Amen.
A Prayer for Health and Healing
Jehovah Rapha, our healer, I pray for the health of my children. Protect their bodies from illness, strengthen their minds, and comfort them when they are unwell. Restore them to fullness of life and let them flourish under Your care. Amen.
A Prayer for Their Future
Lord, I commit my children's future to You. Open doors for them, guide their steps, and lead them into the plans You have prepared. May they fulfill the purpose for which You created them, trusting that Your plans are good. Amen.
