A Prayer For Teaching Children

Father, You have blessed us in various ways, and for the vast majority of couples, You have blessed them with children whom they will raise from birth to adulthood. As believers, they not only oversee their children’s welfare, nutrition, schooling, and discipline, but they also have the responsibility to spiritually nurture them in the ways of the Lord. We are increasingly dealing with opposition from public institutions that undermine the Biblical worldview and seek to force their outlook and behavior on believers. Fortify our young parents who model Christianity and teach Biblical truths in the home. Protect them from the evil one who goes about like a roaring lion seeking those whom he may devour. We can do all things through Christ who strengthens us; through Christ who enables us to take a stand against a popular culture that is not aligned with Scripture, for where sin abounds grace doth much more abound. Amen.
