“Light is sown like seed for the righteous, and gladness for the upright in heart.” Psalm 97:11, (NASV) Lord God, fill my children’s hearts with rejoicing because You reign with righteousness and justice as Your foundation. Go before them with fire and consume their enemies, making the earth tremble and the mountains melt like wax. In the same way, give them ears to hear the heavens proclaim Your righteousness and eyes to see Your glory. Cast down all idols and be first in their lives for You are the Most High over all the earth and exalted above all other gods. Consider my children faithful, I pray. Guard their lives and deliver them from the wicked. But make their hearts upright before YOU, oh God, so they may overflow with joy and light. Lord Most High, let my children rejoice and praise Your Holy Name.

“Sing to the Lord a new song; sing to the Lord, all the earth.” Psalm 96:1, (NASV) Let my children sing to You a new song and bless Your Name. Daily, may they proclaim Your salvation, declaring Your glory and marvelous deeds to the nations. Be first in their lives, oh God, casting down all idols for You are great and worthy to be praised. May they ascribe glory and strength to You who created the heavens with Your splendor and majesty. Oh God, I pray they will worship and tremble before Your holiness for You reign over all the earth, judging each one with equity. Let them join with the heavens with its rejoicing, the earth with its gladness, the sea as it resounds, the fields with its jubilation, and the trees with their joy as they sing before You, our coming King.  “Come, let us worship and bow down, let us kneel before the Lord our Maker. For HE is our God, and we are the people of HIs pasture and the sheep of His hand.” Psalm 95:6-7, (NASV) To You, oh Rock of our salvation, may my children come singing with joy and shouting with praise. With music and songs of thanksgiving, let them extol You, the Great God and King, for You hold the depths of the earth in Your hands. Come, let them worship and bow down to You who made the seas and formed the land. In Your pastures as one of Your flock, may they kneel before You, their God and Maker. Keep their hearts soft, I pray, and prevent them from testing or grumbling against You. Instead, let my children hear Your voice and be granted rest, never being led astray from Your great love.  “Blessed is the man whom You discipline, Lord, and whom You teach from Your law…” Psalm 94:12, (NASV) As judge of the earth, avenge my children, oh God. Rise to repay the proud, I pray, silencing their words and arrogant talk. Protect my children from being crushed or oppressed by their enemies. Instead, I pray You will stamp out the wicked's jubilation and heap humiliation upon their boasts. Yet, keep my children from foolishness and bless them with Your wisdom for You know the thoughts of man. Oh Lord, With Your loving hand of discipline, bless my children through the teachings of Your law while You grant them reprieve from their adversaries. Do not abandon my children, God of vengeance, but make them upright in heart so that they may follow You in righteousness. Take Your stand against their enemies, oh Lord, and be their Help. When their feet slip, support them with Your love. When they are anxious, let their souls derive joy from Your comfort. In the face of corruption and death, destroy their enemies. Be my children’s Fortress and God, the Rock of their Refuge.  “The Lord reigns, He is clothed with majesty; the Lord has clothed and encircled Himself with strength. Indeed, the world is firmly established; it will not be moved.” Psalm 93:1, (NASV) You, Lord, who reigns, allow my children to witness Your strength and majesty. For You firmly established the world and Your eternal throne from long ago. Lift up their voices with the pounding waves in worship of You, oh God, whose might extends beyond the thundering of the great waters and the breakers of the deep sea. Adorn my children with Your holiness, I plead, and root their footing firmly upon Your unfailing statues. 
“For You, Lord, have made me joyful by what You have done, I will sing for joy over the works of Your hands.” Psalm 92:4, (NASV) Fill my children with music and praises to Your Name, oh Lord. In the morning, may they proclaim Your goodness and at night, let them declare Your faithfulness. Stir their hearts with joy because of the good things You have done. Oh God, bless them with the knowledge and understanding of Your great works and the depths of Your thoughts. I pray they will exalt Your Name forever as You scatter and destroy their enemies. Exalt the horn of their strength, oh God, and anoint them with oil. Plant them in Your house so they might flourish and grow strong in Your courts. Even in their old age, I pray You will help them bear fruit and brim with vitality to proclaim Your justice. Be their Rock, I pray, for You are good.  ” No evil will happen to you, nor will any plague come near your tent. For He will give His angels orders concerning you, to protect you in all your ways.” Psalm 91:10-11, (NASV) Oh Lord, may my children dwell with You so they may rest in the shadow of Your wings. Be their trusted refuge and fortress, I plead. Save them from snares, cover them with Your feathers, and let Your wings grant them refuge for they trust in You. Oh God, shield them with Your faithfulness while You protect them from the enemy’s arrows, plagues, or destruction, keeping them from fear. With You as our refuge, I praise You how no evil or plague will come near. Oh Most High, command Your angels to guard them and lift them up in Your hands so they will not stumble. Instead, let them walk upon their enemies and trample them with their feet. May my children submit their hearts to You, I plead, for You will save those who love You and make secure those who know Your Name. When they call, answer them. When they are in trouble, be with them. Rescue them and grant them honor. Oh Father, bless my children with long life, satisfy their heart’s desires, and show them Your salvation.  “May the kindness of the Lord our God be upon us; and confirm for us the work of our hands…” Psalm 90:17, (NASV) Oh God my God, You, who brought forth the world and turn men back to dust, be my children’s dwelling place. Though Your consuming anger burns with indignation and our years fly by, teach my children how to number their days and to fear You. From this, may they gain a heart of wisdom. Each morning, show them Your compassion and fill them with Your unfailing love. Overflow them with gladness and songs of joy all their days. I plead with You, Lord, bless them with a double portion of Your joy for the number of days they have seen trouble. While to their children, may You show the splendor of Your great deeds. Oh Lord, establish the works of their hands and rest Your favor upon them.  “Righteousness and justice are the foundation of Your throne; mercy and truth go before You. Blessed are the people who know the joyful sound! Lord, they walk in the light of Your face.” Psalm 89:14-15, (NASV) May my children sing of Your love forever, declaring Your faithfulness to all generations. Let them join with the heavens, praising Your wonders and faithfulness. From the stilling of roaring waters to the scattering of enemies, let my children proclaim Your might. IN the same way, from the heavens and the earth You created, may they declare Your faithfulness. Lord God Almighty, display the power and strength of Your right hand in my children’s lives. For Your foundation is founded in righteousness and justice while Your love and faithfulness go before You. Oh God, I pray my children will walk in the Light of Your presence, exalting and rejoicing in Your righteous Name. Bless them, oh God, for You are their glory and strength, sovereign Shield, and their horn of favor. Anoint them with Your sacred oil, I plead, as You sustain and strengthen them. Strike down their enemies and keep them from oppression. Yet surround them with Your faithful love and strength. Be their Father, Rock and Savior, blessing them with an everlasting love and a never failing covenant. May You bless and establish my children with Your faithfulness and love. In the same way, I pray You will not reject or allow Your anger to burn against my children. Rather, may You uphold Your covenant, oh God of Abraham. Protect them from scorn and plunder. Make the edge of their swords strike their enemies. Yet, raise my children up above others while You bless them with long life and prosperity. Oh Most High, do not hide Yourself nor burn with anger but remember them with the love and faithfulness You showered upon David. Oh God, anoint them every step as You deliver them from the mocking taunts of their enemies. May my children bless Your Name forever.  “Lord, the God of my salvation, I have cried out by day and in the night before You. Let my prayer come before You; incline Your ear to my cry!” Psalm 88:1-2, (NASV) Save my children, oh God, for they cry out to You day and night. Turn Your ear and receive their prayers for they are troubled and without strength. Cut them not off from Your care nor overwhelm them with Your wrath but deliver them from the pit and restore them. When grief overwhelms them, let them call out and lift their arms up to You. Each morning let them declare Your faithfulness and wonders. Do not reject or turn away from them, oh God of salvation. But from infancy, bless my children with life, health, joy, and favor as You surround them with companions and loved ones.  |
