29. How Praying Scripture Over Your Children Builds Faith in Jesus That Lasts a Lifetime
Do you ever wonder if your prayers for your children really make a difference?When the world feels uncertain, and fear whispers into your parenting, take heart—God has given you a powerful role: to stand in the gap and pray His Word over your children.
Faithful intercession leads to a God-led future for our children and peace-filled confidence for us.
In this episode, we will walk through Genesis 18:16–33 and look at how Abraham stood before God—interceding on behalf of others and modeling what unshakable faith looks like when the world shakes.
You will discover how praying Scripture back to God builds a foundation of faith that your children can stand on for life.
When parents stand in the gap, God stands over His Word to perform it.
That’s how unshakable faith is built—one prayer, one verse, one act of trust at a time.
Blessings, ✨ Tricia
