What a perfect time to train our kids to be powerful prayer warriors standing in faith for god’s healing and deliverance! During the coronavirus pandemic! we need to teach our kids to pray real prayers from the very beginning– earth moving prayers – prayers that are effective and move the hand of God! We can do better teaching our children. Even in our children’s ministries we often just teach (or rather allow) kids to pray soul based Prayers out of their emotions or sympathy. They need to learn to pray from their hears not their mind or soul. Spirit filled Prayers.
Historically children have been some of the most effective intercessors and prayer warriors that have impacted famous revivals for centuries. The bible is the best place to start to teach your kids to pray.
Psalm 91, but you can use any scriptures, and teach your kids to convert them into prayers. You may want to help your kids write them out, or do a repeat after me. Write them out and hang them all over your house and decree every day.
Psalm 91:2 this I declare about the Lord: He alone is my refuge, my place of safety; he is my God, and I trust him.
Change the wording to, “this I declare about YOU, Lord: YOU alone are my refuge, my place of safety; YOU are my God, and I trust you.”
See what we did there? Easy
Vs 3 – for he will rescue you from every trap and protect you from deadly disease.
Change that to: “for YOU will rescue me, my mom and dad, brothers and sisters, my friends and (______) from every trap and protect us from deadly diseases including the coronavirus.”
You can do this with the entire psalm, but for sake of time I’m going to skip to verse 5 & 6
Vs 5- 6 “do not be afraid of the terrors of the night, nor the arrow that flies in the day, do not dread the disease that stalks in darkness, nor the disaster that strikes at midday.”
Change this to, “I will not be afraid the coronavirus at night, nor the covid-19 germs that fly around me in the day. I will not dread the coronavirus disease or any other invisible disease that stalks in darkness, nor will I be afraid of the disasters that strikes at midday.”
And here’s how to write out vs 7, “though a thousand fall in my city or state or country, and though ten thousand maybe dying all around the world, these evil diseases and viruses will not touch me, my family or
______.”
I encourage you right now if you are a parent at home to teach your kids and watch what God will do.
