​The Blessing

3/22/2020

0 Comments

 
Crowded stores, empty shelves, and long lines greeted my husband today as he attempted to stock up our house.
“It’s so surreal.” He shook his head as he put away the few items he'd managed to procure. “I can’t believe it.”

My heart sank. With paranoia nipping at my heels, I wondered how careful we indeed needed to be. A friend had just informed me that it had been recommended that all clothes should be stripped off the body and immediately washed after venturing outside, followed by a thorough shower for the person. Suggestions to wash all canned goods and leave plastic shopping bags outside the home also rang in my ears. Moreover, the unprecedented combination of cancelled schools, children at home, job layoffs, businesses closing, and church cancellations were enough to rattle my bones. ...

“Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, and today, and forever.” Hebrews 13:8, NIV

Prayer Over Our Children

Oh God, fill my child’s heart with brotherly love and a desire to be hospitable to all. Oh Lord, place a hedge of protection around her, that she may stay faithful in marriage and free from sexual immorality. Oh Lord, may contentment rein in her heart that the love of money may never possess a foothold over her. I plead that You will remain faithful to her all the days of her life, never leaving her nor forsaking her so that she may walk in Your confidence without fear of man. ...

Oh Lord, bring up my child in Your love and grace. Help my little one actively shares her faith so that she will gain a full understanding of every good thing she holds in You. May Your love encourage her and bring her great joy. Make her useful for Your kingdom, oh God, and a beloved sister in Christ to all those she meets.

Titus Chapter 1

“Since an overseer manages God’s household, he must be blameless – not overbearing, not quick-tempered, not violent, not pursuing dishonest gain. Rather, he must be hospitable, one who loves what is good, who is self-controlled, upright, holy and disciplined. He must hold firmly to the trustworthy message as it has been taught, so that he can encourage others by sound doctrine and refute those who oppose it.” Titus 1:7-9

Prayer Over Our Children

I continue to pray for my daughter’s future husband. Raise my future son-in-law to be blameless and true. Help him and my daughter parent wisely, blessing them with obedient and submissive children who know You as Lord and Savior. Entrust him with Your Word, making him upright and pure while not overbearing, not given to self-indulgences but good tempered, slow to anger, gentle, and not tempted by dishonest gain. Mold him to possess a hospitable heart, to love what is good, and to be self-controlled, honest, holy, and disciplined. Help him hold firmly to Your Truth so that he may encourage others with sound doctrine and rebuke those who oppose it. ...

​“First of all, then, I urge that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for all people, . . ., that we may lead a peaceful and quiet life, godly and dignified in every way. I Timothy 2: 1 – 2 (ESV)

Prayer for Our Children

Help my little one live a peaceful and quiet life, filled with Godliness and holiness that is pleasing unto You, oh Lord. Bring her to a saving knowledge of Your Truth so that she may know Jesus Christ as her great Mediator, and one true God. Use my little one as a herald of the gospel, spreading Your truth to all with whom she encounters.

“For God did not call us to be impure, but to live a holy life.” (1 Thes. 4:7 NIV)

Prayer for Our Children

Oh God, please help my daughter and her future spouse stay sexually pure throughout the entirety of their lifetime, from the bloom of their youth to the end of their days. Protect them from impurity, perversion, and harm. Keep them from lustful temptation, and guard their eyes, thoughts, impulses, and bodies. Bless them with a faithful, loving, and lasting marriage that reflects the love and light of Christ. Help our little ones to live a life, holy and pleasing unto Yu. Make Your ways and Your instruction a delight to their ears and a joy to their hearts. May Your Word be a lamp unto their feet and a Light unto their paths. ...
