“I pray that from Your glorious, unlimited resources You will empower my family with inner strength through Your Spirit. Jesus, make Your home in their hearts and help them to trust in You. I decree that their roots will grow down into Your love and keep them strong. And may they have the power to understand, as all God’s people should, how wide, how long, how high, and how deep Your love is. May they experience the love of Christ, though it is too great to understand fully. Then they will be made complete with all the fullness of life and power that comes from God.”
Taken from Ephesians 3:16-19
Praying the Word of God over your life and your family is one of the most amazing ways to pray.
If you’ve never prayed the Word of God then start with the Psalms and personalize them over your life and the lives of your loved ones.
I’ve been doing this for decades and now as I read the Bible and come across a verse or section that expresses the desires of my heart (or His heart)— I stop and pray it, decree it, and receive it. His Word will not come back void.
