How to Pray for your Children
A child is a gift from God and like anything he has created he has the power to guide, direct and transform any being that is placed on to him. Understanding God's promises are the first step to knowing the power of God and his ability to intervene when issues arise. Praying the word over your child will allow God's divine nature to flow onto your child and his promises will come to pass. The power of prayer is real and it should be used not as the last option but the first.
