Spiritual Blessings For Our Children

 



Dear friends, I expect all of you like me are ever conscious that our children are living in a violent, stricken society. Daily news reports make us aware that evil is rampant among us. We wonder how we can provide safety for our children as they go about their daily lives- be it to school, college, work or even at home. We cannot always be with our children or look out for them. 

One day, reading through my daily devotionals, I came across these 3 verses from the bible to be spoken as prayers. I make it a point now to pray these blessings over my children every morning, afternoon and night.

Here are the 3 blessings I speak over their names:

“May God bless you and keep you. May His face shine upon your face. May He be gracious to you. May you find favour in His eyes. May you have peace all of your days.” Numbers 6:24-26

“May the Lord keep you from all harm as you trust in Him. May He watch over your life, your coming and your going, both now and forevermore.” Psalm 121:7-8

“May God make all grace abound to you, so that in all things, at all times, having all that you need, you will abound in every good work” 2 Corinthians 9:8

After saying these prayers, I feel a calm assurance that my children are safe under God’s protection. And that we do not have to worry about them as they are being kept safe under the shadow of the Almighty One who is head over all power and authority.

I hope these prayers will be a blessing to your children too. I am posting these prayers on my PRAYER page also to be easily accessible
