November 2019 Monthly Prayer Guide for our Kids

I am on a journey of deepening how I pray for my children. One of my roles as their parent is to consistently uphold them in prayer before the Lord. If I am honest, I realise that this sometimes needs to be more of a priority in my life. Thus, in my journey, I am looking at different ways to help me in this.

Therefore, for November, I have compiled a monthly guide to assist me in this month & I thought I would share it with you. I am planning on speaking the Bible verses over both children each day as I decree & declare the prayer.

I have listed the prayer and relevant Bible verses I will pray and decree over them each day. If you would like a copy of the beautifully presented one to encourage you to also pray purposefully this next month for your children, please email me at [email protected]  & I will send an attachment through to you. Here is also a link to the document in the cloud that you can download. https://documentcloud.adobe.com/link/track?uri=urn%3Aaaid%3Ascds%3AUS%3A6f725586-812f-4dc0-95b0-d052bd80cd67

In my journey, I am discovering that our words that we declare are so powerful. I declare and decree most of my prayers now, so instead of starting “I pray for..”, I tend to say “I decree and declare…”. What we say and declare with our mouth is powerful. God spoke the world into being through declaring. What an example for us to follow.

Lately as I have started praying bigger prayers, I have started seeing incredible answer to these prayers. I want to encourage you, pray big for your kids & then look expectantly to see how God answers them.
