It has been translated into Korean, Spanish, and Swahili. These effective prayers for your children can now be accessed quickly and easily on your iPhone or iPad!
This new app provides a short Bible-based prayer and supporting Scripture for every day of the month. You can set a daily reminder at a specific time to pray for your children, grandchildren, or other children in your life. Here are some examples of daily prayers:
• Honesty and integrity: “May integrity and honesty be their virtue and their protection” (Ps. 25:21).
• Self-control: “Father, help my children not to be like many others around them, but let them be alert and self-controlled in all they do”
(1 Thess. 5:6).
• Love for God’s Word: “May my children grow to find Your Word more precious than much pure gold and sweeter than honey from the comb” (Ps. 19:10).
• Faithfulness: “Let love and faithfulness never leave my children, but bind these twin virtues around their necks and write them on the tablets of their hearts” (Prov. 3:3).
