My Grandmother Is Praying… Proverbs 3:5-6″

by | Jan 31, 2010 | 0 comments

“Trust in the Lord with all your heart and
lean not on your own understanding;
in all your ways acknowledge him,
and he will make your paths straight.”

 

Father, it is tempting for Your children to take detours that lead them astray.

But I pray that my grandchild will trust You to keep his feet on a straight path.

Thank You for giving him this Bible promise—

that as he acknowledges You in everything he does,

You will guide him to safety.

 

Application: Take a walk in your neighborhood and discuss the best path to take to arrive at your destination. Reassure your grandchild that no matter what difficulties he may face in life, God will be there to walk with him.

This Prayer suggestion is used by permission from “My Grandmother is. . . praying for me” by Kathryn March, Pamela Ferris, and Susan Kelton. They are three ordinary grandmothers desiring to pray for the next generation to become men and women of strong character and great faith. They have a verse from the Proverbs, a prayer for the verse and an application for each day of the year.

I have found the book an excellent resource for praying from my grandchildren, especially for character development. You may order the book from their website:  www.mygrandmotheris.com.

During biblical times in the Jewish religious life and sacrificial system, lambs were sacrificed daily to atone for the sins of the people. The lambs used in these sacrifices had to be spotless, without blemish or defects as they symbolized perfect, blameless purity. They foreshadowed what the prophet Isaiah told of the coming One who would be brought “like a lamb to the slaughter”.
