🙏 A Prayer for Protection Over Your Children | 20-Minute Guided Biblical Prayer
With school about to open, this prayer is for every parent, grandparent, and guardian carrying fear for the children in their life — fear for their physical safety, the friendships and influences shaping them, the dangers of this generation, and yes, even the fear of violence in the places they should feel safest. Rooted in Scripture and spoken over your children by name, this 20-minute prayer calls on the many names of God — El Shaddai (God Almighty), Jehovah Nissi (the Lord our Banner), El Roi (the God Who Sees), and more — to surround your children with angels, cover their school and surroundings with a hedge of protection, and clothe them in the full armor of God.
Your children are never outside of His sight. He has not lost track of them for a single second.
