Praying for my Children with Scripture

Watch over Daniel, Laura Beth and James' life. Do not slumber or sleep, but keep them from all harm. Watch over their lives, coming and going, both now and forevermore. (PS 121:3-8) Do not let anything separate Daniel, Laura Beth and James from your love. When trouble, hardship, persecution, danger or any need arises, let them remember that we are "more than conquerors," and that nothing can separate them from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord. (Rom 8:35-39) Cause my children oh Lord, to offer their bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to you, Lord. Let them see themselves as a temple of the Holy Spirit, belonging to you, that they might flee from sexual immorality and honor you with their body. (Rom 12:1; 1 Cor 6: 18-20) Do not let my children be led astray by drugs and alcohol. (Prov. 20:1) Hem my darlings in behind and before; place your hand upon them so that wherever they go, and whatever they do, they will be accompanied by your presence. (Ps 139:5-10) Put a new spirit in them. Remove the heart of stone and give them a heart of flesh. Cause them to follow your decrees and deep your laws. Let they know that they belong to You oh my Jesus, and that you are their God (Ezk 11:19) I pray that my gifts from you will put their trust in You and never be shaken (Ps 125:1) Open my three children's eyes and turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan to God, so that they may receive forgiveness of sins and a place among those who are sanctified by faith in Christ. (Acts 26:18) Put people in all three lives, who will gently instruct them; and grant them repentance leading to a knowledge of the truth. Cause them to come to their senses and escape from the trap of the devil who has taken them captive to do their own will. (2 Tim 2:25-26) Remove the veil from their eyes so that they can see the light of the gospel. Shine your light in their hearts to give them the light of knowledge of Your glory in the face of Christ (2 Cor 4:4-6)
In Jesus Name Amen.
