Dear God, my children are being raised in a culture where truth and morals are relative. I pray that my children would know the truth about You, and would follow you wholeheartedly. May they know and love the Bible. Dear God, I pray for holy influences in the lives of my children. Please bring good friends into their lives who will hold them accountable and sharpen them. Dear God, I pray for my children’s vocations. May they offer You their lives. If it is Your will that they marry, I pray they would choose a person of Christian faith and that the strength of their marriage would come from a mutual commitment to God. If it’s Your will that they’d have a religious vocation, I pray they would say yes, offering You their very best. Either way, I pray they would seek out what Your plan is for their lives, and that You’d equip them to fulfill their unique calling. Dear God, please protect my children from evil. I ask for protection from sexual immorality, specifically pornography and promiscuity. Help them to use media wisely, especially internet social networking sites. Dear God, I pray that my children would be leaders in their generation, holding high the causes of Christ instead of the causes of the world. Dear God, I pray that my children would respect authority. I pray they’d respect their father and me, teachers, the Church, and other authorities. I pray that their ultimate authority would be You, and that they would surrender their will to You.

Dear God, I pray that any suffer ing in the l ives of my chi ldren would be used to produce holy character. In my role as a mother, I desire to protect. Help me not to get in the way of Your work in my chi ldren’s l ives.

Dear God, I pray that my chi ldren would be people of integri ty (being the same person when no one is looking). Keep them from the faulty bel ief that you can be one person onl ine and another in real i ty. Keep t h em f r om an obse s s i o n w i t h image. May they f ind their ident i ty in You.

Dear God, as my chi ldren prepare for another school year, I pray that t h e y w o u l d h a v e s t r e n g t h o f character so they can stand f irm aga ins t peer pressure and the devi l ’s schemes.

Dear God, I pray that my chi ldren would have hearts of compassion. May they desire to serve and meet the needs of the suffer ing and marginal ized. May they be focused o n o t h e r s a nd f r e e f r om t h e mental i ty that “ i t ’s al l about me.”

Dear God, grant my chi ldren the wisdom to recognize Your truth a n d S a t a n ’ s s u b t l e l i e s . I spec i f i ca l l y p ray aga i ns t t he fol lowing l ies: “What I do on the i n t e r n e t i s my bus i n e s s . ” “ I t ’ s harmless and doesn’t hurt anyone,” “Beaut i fu l gir ls are worth more,” “ I have to perform to be loved.”

Dear God, I pray that my chi ldren would be careful with their words - not gossiping, exaggerat ing, ly ing, or speaking unkindly. I pray that their words would be pleasing to You not just out in publ ic but also in the way they speak to their fami ly members.
