Praying Through Proverbs for Your Children

You can go through this book as fast or as slow as you want to, and
are able to. If you'd like to pray through the book of Proverbs every
month for your kids, simply go through the prayers for the chapter
that matches the day of the month. If that is more than you want to
do daily, then just pray through them a few at a time, marking where
you leave off each day.
Some ideas as you pray through the book:
1. Insert your child's name, or your children's names, where it says
"my children" or "my kids".
Cause (my children) Daniel, Debbie, and Anna to have wisdom, and
to think like You think. (Proverbs 1:1)
2. In some cases, you may feel one of your kids in particular really
needs that prayer. Write their name beside it as a reminder, so you
can come back to it.
3. Highlight the prayers that stand out to you, or that you really feel
your kids need. Go back through the book regularly and pray those
prayers.
Regardless of HOW you use this book, may I encourage you to make
a commitment to DAILY pray for your kids, even if you only pray one
or two of the prayers? Remember that we are in a spiritual battle for
our kids, and that battle is fought in prayer. God's Word is a powerful
weapon, sharper than any two-edged sword. (Hebrews 4:12)
As you pray for your children using the weapon of God's Word, claim
the promise in Isaiah 55:11 that His Word won't return to Him void, but
it will accomplish what it is supposed to, and will prosper in the thing
for which He sent it.
