Christian Parents and Friends: I really enjoyed this book. Eventhough I am not a mother myself, I am blessed to have nieces, nephews, godsons, and friends who children I love like my own. These are easy prayers in a great way of thinking that everyone should have by their night stand. Weather you are a mother, father, grandparent, family member or friend, you can still pray for those you love using this book. I read this on kindle unlimited but plan to get the physical copy for myself and others.

powerful Prays

As I sat here and definitely took more than 40 days to pray this over my kids I realized just how much I’m lacking and what more I need to do for my kids. I love how she ended this book that calls both parents on their shortcomings and what are duty really is to raise and pray our kids up in this world. Love it and definitely will be restarting and continuing to pray these daily over my girls.

Beautifully written prayers that are saturated in Scripture. Appropriate for those with young children. If your children are grown, I highly recommend Praying for Your Adult Children by Omartian, which includes encouragement as well as prayers.

This book is incredible. Excellent and thorough choice of prayer topics. Each prayer is rich with scripture taken in context. The last two chapters, an encouragement to mothers and fathers individually, are very convicting. Highly recommend this resource to every parent.

I wanted to read through this entire book to see if it’s something I would enjoy using as part of my 21 (or 40 lol) days of prayer for the New Year - and I will absolutely be using this as a tool to help inspire deeper prayers over my children.

This was my perfect. No story time, no long descriptions from the author about a time in their life, just straight prayers. Short and sweet prayers for specific areas of your child’s life. This was perfect.

I liked that each prayer has a specific focus and includes a one sentence prayer, a longer prayer, and specific scriptures to dive in deeper, depending on time and preference.
