14 Promises to Pray Over Your Childrenنموونە

The Importance of Character

He stores up success for the upright; He is a shield for those who live with integrity.
Proverbs 2:7 HCSB

Dear Lord, You have promised that You are a shield for those who live righteously. I pray that my children will be Your honest and faithful servants.

The Bible instructs all people to walk in honesty and in truth. You have promised that when we seek Your truth, You will guide us. And You have promised that Your truth will set us free.

Give my children the courage to speak honestly and behave honorably. Let them discover Your truth, and let them walk righteously with You today, tomorrow, and every day of their lives.

Amen.
