Father, in the name of Jesus, I pray and declare Your Word over my children, surrounding them with faith—faith in Your Word that You fulfill it! I believe and declare that my children are followers of Christ, taught by the Lord, and obedient to Your will. Great is the peace and calm of my children, for You, God, stand against what stands against them, providing them safety and comfort.

Father, You will take care of everything that concerns me. I entrust and release the care of my children entirely to You, Father. They are in Your hands, and I am fully convinced that You are able to protect and hold what I have entrusted to You. You are more than enough!

I believe my children respect and obey their parents in the Lord, recognizing this as just and right. They honor and cherish their parents, holding them in high regard, as this is the first commandment with a promise: that things may go well for them and they may enjoy a long life on earth. I trust that my children choose life, love the Lord, listen to His voice, and hold fast to Him, for He is their life and the length of their days. As such, my children are leaders, not followers; they rise above and are never beneath. They are blessed in their coming and going.

I believe and confess that You assign Your angels to watch over my children, to guide, protect, and keep them safe in all they do. You, Lord, are their Shelter and Stronghold, their Glory, and the One who lifts their spirits.

As parents, we won’t provoke or irritate our children. We’ll avoid being harsh or causing them to feel discouraged, frustrated, or inferior. Instead, we’ll nurture them with love, guiding them gently through discipline and advice rooted in faith. We’ll teach them the right path so that when they’re older, they won’t stray from it.

O Lord, my God, how majestic and glorious is Your name throughout all the earth! You have displayed Your glory above the heavens. From the mouths of children and infants, You have established strength to silence Your enemies and those who oppose You. I give praise to Your name, O Most High. In the name of Jesus, the enemy is driven away from my children! They grow in wisdom and find favor with God and people. Amen.
