Children follow by example. Are you setting the example you want to set by spending time with God?
Lord, Draw Me into a Closer Walk with You
"Draw near to God and He will draw near to you." James 4:8
Lord, help me to set aside time each day to meet with You alone. As I come before You, teach me to pray the way You want me to. Help me to learn more about You. Lord, You have said, “If anyone thirsts, let him come to Me and drink” (John 7:37). I thirst for more of You because I am in a dry place without You. I come to You this day and drink deeply of Your Spirit. I know You are everywhere, but I also know there are deeper manifestations of Your presence that I long to experience. I draw close to You today, grateful You will draw close to me as You have promised in Your Word.
In Jesus’ name I pray.
Help My Child Desire to Live Your Way
"Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be filled." Matthew 5:6
Lord, I pray for (name of child) to have an ever-increasing hunger for more of You. May she (he) grow to long for Your presence- long to spend time with You in prayer, praise, and worship. Give her (him) a desire for the truth of Your Word and a love for Your laws and Your ways. Teach her (him) to live by faith and be led by Your Holy Spirit, and to have a desire to live Your way. May a deep reverence and love for You and Your laws color everything she (he) does and every choice she (he) makes. Help her (him) to understand the consequences of her (his) actions. May she (he) learn to not be wise in her (his) own eyes, but rather to “fear the Lord and depart from evil” (Proverbs 3:7).
In Jesus’ name I pray.
