Such a high priest truly meets our needs – one who is holy, blameless, pure, set apart from sinners, exalted above the heavens.” Hebrews 7:25-26, NIV Prayer Over Our ChildrenBless my daughter, oh Lord, through the inheritance of Your promises. Raise her up from her family line to serve You in deeper, new ways. Set her apart, oh God, from what has previously been weak and useless so that You may draw her close to You through the introduction of Your Greater Hope. Thank You for how You live to intercede for her and for each one of us. May she come to You and may You meet each one of her needs through Your holiness, purity, innocence, preservation from sin, and exalted seat above the heavens.
