Parent's Prayer of Blessing
for Children
Father, I receive, welcome and acknowledge each
of my children as a delightful blessing from You.
I speak your blessings upon them and over them.
Children, I bless you in the name of Jesus,
proclaiming the blessings of God, my
Redeemer, upon you. May He give you wisdom,
a reverential fear of God, and a heart of love.
Children, I bless you in the name of Jesus,
proclaiming the blessings of God, my
Redeemer, upon you. May He give you wisdom,
a reverential fear of God, and a heart
of love.
May He create in you the desire to attend
to His words; a willing and obedient heart
that you may consent and submit to His
ways. May your eyes look straight ahead
with purpose for the future. May your tongue
be as the pen of a ready writer, writing
mercy and kindness upon the tablets of your
heart. May you speak the truth in love.
May your hands do the works of the Father,
may your feet walk the paths which He
has foreordained for you.
I have no greater joy than this, to hear
that my children are living their lives
in the truth.
May the Lord prepare you and your future
mate to love and honor one another, and
and may He grant to your union upright sons
and daughters who will live in accordance
with His Word. May your source of livihood
be honorable and secure, so that you will
earn a living with your own hands. May
you always worship God in spirit and
in truth.
I pray above all things that you may
prosper and be in health even as your
soul prospers. ...I know the thoughts
and plans that I have for you, says the
Lord, thoughts and plans for welfare and
plans for welfare and peace and not for evil
to give you hope in your final outcome
(Jer.29:11)
In the name of Jesus. Amen
