Praying Scripture

Over the past couple of years, we have been making an effort to pray scripturally - to be in accordance with God's will. Through that, we have sought to pray scripture.

Recently, a number of friends attended a conference in Dallas (The Cross-Shaped Family), and a couple of them mentioned a resource that Beth Moore provided for praying scripture over their children. I followed the link and printed out the document: https://blog.lproof.org/2018/10/from-erlc-parenting-panel-prayers-drawn-from-scripture-for-your-children.html

We have a number of children that we pray for every evening, so thought that this would give us fresh insights in ways to pray for them, and it has. But we are also finding it useful to use for all the folks we pray for - those in authority over us, our friends and family, those going through various trials - praying God's words over them imbues our prayers with power that our own words sometimes seem to lack. We are thankful for this resource and thought some of our friends might appreciate it too!
