FRIDAY: Praying for our Adult Kids.

Stepping Out in RED Shoes

- Day 105 -

They're Never Too Old for Prayer!

Once the kids are grown, up and out of the house, it's not over.  Some would say that's when the real prayer begins.  I know that many of you are frustrated that your children are not living for Christ with passion.  Let's bring them before the altar of God right now.

Father God, in the Name of Jesus... we bring our children before you.  Lord, we proclaim  SALVATION over their lives.  We have dedicated them to You, and we wait and pray -- wait and pray -- wait and pray for the fullness of that manifestation to become evident in their lives.

Do whatever it takes, LORD, to get a hold of them.  We pray that their hearts would be SOLD OUT to You and to You alone.  We pray they would live a full, passionate life with You -- and for You.  May their lives be reflective of an amazing relationship with The Living God!

We get on our knees and battle against the Kingdom of Darkness for our children's souls!  We tear down worldly mindsets.  In Jesus Name we rip away the deceptions, distractions and distortions of the enemy.  We bind the demonic influences that want to woo them in an ungodly and dark direction.  We curse those things that want to consume them!  IN JESUS' NAME!  "You will not win, devil!  This praying mom is sinking her feet into the prayer closet and praying on her children's  behalf.!

"As for me and my house, we shall serve the LORD!"

We cry out: "VICTORY" over their lives!
 We call out:   "PASSION FOR CHRIST"  over them.

Bring them around LORD.

We pray the The Holy Ghost would cover them, hover over them, surround them, and grab a hold of their hearts with the LOVE of Jesus Christ -- so much so that they are compelled to LET GO of the World and turn to Christ, fully, whole-heartedly, and with zeal.  May they have a non-compromising attitude.  ALL FOR JESUS!  

We're tired of sitting back and hoping for the best, LORD.  We take a hold of the horns of the altar and continually bring their names before You!  We BELIEVE!  We BELIEVE!

We BELIEVE YOU HAVE A PLAN FOR THEM! 

Create, Oh LORD, a hunger in their hearts for You and Your Word.  We pray that they'd want nothing more than to be found in Your PRESENCE.  We BELIEVE that You will woo them into a POWERFULLY DYNAMIC, NON-COMPROMISING RELATIONSHIP WITH YOU.

WE'RE NOT ASKING FOR RELIGIOUS KIDS!  NO!
WE'RE LOOKING FOR A RELATIONSHIP WITH THE LIVING GOD!
LET IT BE!

Use them in Your mission to REACH THE WORLD!  We pray that their gifts and talents would be used to further the gospel, to save souls, to touch lives with The Father's Love. We pray that each of them would have their own dynamic testimony and that they'd share that testimony wherever they go!

 We pray that they would live -- not just "good" lives -- but lives that bring GLORY TO YOU!

Have your way, we pray, IN JESUS' NAME!

AMEN.
