You’ve heard me talk about it before. But today I want to share the truth…
About two years ago, when my oldest was turning three, I began praying Scripture over my children, and since then it has become quite a passion of mine. I love to take the Word and wash it over my boys in prayer, substituting their names in when I can and asking the Lord to bring it to fruition in their lives.
At the beginning of each year I write out a long Scripture prayer for my boys with the goal of praying it over them each day in that year. I plan to frame these prayers one day and devote a wall in our home to the petitions I have lifted up on their behalf all of their lives. I dream of seeing how the Lord has been faithful to His Word by planting it deeply in their hearts.
But I have to confess: sometimes praying the Word is more for me than for them.
