A Prayer for Families

Lord we lift up families tonight Father

We lift up Mothers, Fathers, Brothers, Sisters, Husbands and Wives Lord not just the families were born into but the ones who chose us and the ones we choose to call our family

Lord I pray that they remain healthy Lord and are not hindered

Lord I pray that the families who have lost members to illness come closer together

That they focus on the time they had with them instead of on a future without them

Lord I pray that they have the courage to accept correction and share blessings

That they not be blinded by politics and agendas but focus on the real conflict Lord the spiritual one

Lord I pray that the parents of children have a strong relationship with you building and not breaking down a servant’s heart in obedience rooted in love not installing fear

Lord I pray that husbands and wives be on one accord with you as their Savior and Adonai

Lord I pray that those in leadership have the wisdom to guide others to a closer relationship with you and that they have mature couples and siblings when they need someone to confide in

Lord I pray that Brothers and Sisters be keepers of each other

Lord most of all I pray that everyone know there position and authority that behave in a way that is in line with your will

That they let their yeas be yea and their nays be nay

That they have the humbleness to say I don’t know yet and have the resources to help where help is needed

Lord that we know our gifts and have the wisdom to use them

That we be receptive to each other’s growing process as we are working with you Lord

That we align together in our armor Lord and that we teach everyone we know by example or word those who are not yet fully equipped that you are the Master of our lives, the Creator of everything from the heavens to the deepest Oceans

That we pray without ceasing

In Jesus name
