This wonderful book is full of ideas regarding how to pray for your grandchildren and their parents. It contains great examples of how to specifically pray for God's guidance for them throughout each day and each facet of life. They are dealing with so many issues in today's society that we did not necessarily have to deal with when we were young, and I found it a helpful guide in patterning my own prayers. I highly recommend it. I also enjoyed her book about praying for your adult children.
Can be used as a reference for when your heart is troubled or if you simply need guidance in your prayer time. This is good to begin the habit if you don't have it already.
Because I simply do not have the time to reference all the verses to see if the scripture is being taken out of context I have moved to praying straight out of my daily readings. I am finding this much more from my heart, aimed at where they are currently, and I don't have to stress about things being taken out of context.
I've always loved Stormie O'Martins Power of Praying books. I just became a new grandparent four months ago, so when this came out I was excited! This little prayer book is packed with powerful prayers for your children and their children. I'm definitely not disappointed in this prayer book!
I received a copy of this book through Netgalley in exchange for my honest and unbiased opinion.
I've read several of Stormie Omartian's books & heard her speak once. Her passion for prayer resonates with me. As a grandparent of 9, I will read this book over & over.
This is an excellent book, guiding you scripturally through specific topics and areas of need as you pray for your grandchildren and their parents. I will re-read this book many times!
I so appreciate the authors God given gift for writing. She has delivered another powerful prayer guide that you can put into action immediately. It has been a joy to read through and pray for my grandchildren. I continually use these prayers. Excellent book!
Give the greatest gift to your grandchildren and get on your knees lifting them and their lives up to God. God has given us the power of prayer. The prayers in this book are a beautiful way to ask God’s guidance for every aspect of life.
This is a book to keep at your side along with Praying for your Adult Children. A worthwhile book to keep for times when prayer for grandchildren in special ways is needed.
A sweet book gifted by a sweet client. I knew my grandmother prayed for me and still feel her prayers to this day. I pray my granddaughters will be able to say the same about me.
As a grandparent it is so important to pray for our grandchildren. Stormie helps you and walks you through ways to pray and has prayers for you to pray for your grandchildren in each chapter.
