Cultivating Prayer - Family
Family devotions help create a firm foundation for your children's spiritual growth. Practice the spiritual disciplines of reading God's Word and prayer together, and help train your children to carry these practices with them through life. You're also helping them to learn the truth of God's Word and to come to know Him better.


God's power in me is greater than any other power coming against me.
I am a child of God
I am covered by the blood of Christ
I am crucified with Christ
I am empowered by resurrection power
