1 Thessalonians 5:17 – Pray Without Ceasing
How can you say a daily prayer for your child? God’s word encourages us as Christians to pray without ceasing. And as parents, every new day is a great opportunity to say a prayer over your children. You can speak a blessing, declare a specific word and surround your children with God’s presence in prayer.
More so, in those moments of daily prayer, God can give you a word concerning your child. He can open your eyes to see trouble before it arises in your child’s life.
