Oh, Lord, bless my son with courage! Men’s hearts have melted with fear in the absence of this strength.
Just as You instructed Joshua to be strong and of good courage, to not be afraid because you are with him wherever he goes (Joshua 1:9), bless my son with that same assurance of Your presence.
Fear comes in the front of victory. David’s courageous act of defeating the giant was fulfilled with the understanding that he had a giant of a God with him!
Develop that kind of bravery within my child, ready to stand in the presence of His God, for his God. Position him on this solid understanding that You are for Him.
Your instruction to us is to be of good courage and You then store within us this gutsy spirit to use. You command and supply.
Prompt my child to activate his daring heart without hesitation to accomplish all You want of him. Grant him boldness to speak the heart of Your Word, to stand when others scurry from the battle. Bless him with a Joshua and David kind of courage.
May the fearlessness of Your Spirit manifest in him and make of him that man of valor who knows his God.
You have blessed us with everything we need to walk out this life. We are secure in You.
Thank you for Your faithfulness and continual supply of grace.
In the Name of Jesus---Amen

God Bless My Child with Safety and Protection
Your Word says, “. . . that their (little ones) angels in heaven always see the face of my Father in heaven” (Matthew 18:10). Thank You for this promise. Lord, cover my child with Your mighty hand; hide him from the enemy, make him invisible to the enemy’s eye.
Keep him from attacks while he is growing and maturing in his faith. Keep his body safe from harm, abduction, and predators who seek to kill and destroy. Stop the enemy in his tracks and abort any plan to touch Your child.
Keep his body healthy from sickness and disease. Keep strong his immune system which You designed in the beginning. Help us to teach healthy choices to keep our bodies in perfect health.
Keep his bones strong, grant a strong mind, and may a strong heart be his to serve him through his purpose on this earth. Give him strong hands to do the work, a strong back to bear the load, and strong feet and legs to carry him to many destinations.
Give him ears to hear and a voice to speak wisdom, guidance, and praise.
May Your angels guard him day and night, striking down anyone with intent to harm. Change his path in danger.
Guard his life completely. His life belongs to You.
In the Name of Jesus—Amen

God Bless My Child with the Understanding of Your Word
Father, there were times the disciples asked You to explain Your teachings. They lacked understanding of these spiritual things; things not of this world, and yet, obtainable through You. You opened their eyes to see and they believed. Speak to my child as You explained to these 12. When he reads the Scripture, may he hear Your voice and cause him to comprehend to full measure the Spirit of life received through Your Words.
At an early age may he desire to trade his time for Your presence. Open his understanding as he reads each Word and reveal the mysteries that it holds so he may know You more intimately.
All that he needs is found in Your Word. May Your Words be sought like precious treasure. I declare that in his heart will be stored a wealth of wisdom to guide him all of his days.
Thank you for giving us this special gift. While he is young help me to teach him Your promises.
Grant him the ability to retain Your words in his heart and mind. Help him to memorize your Words of truth and “to hide them in his heart so he will not sin against You.” (Psalm 119:11) We do this for Your glory, Lord.
In the Name of Jesus---Amen

God Bless My Child with Strength and Success
Lord, when I read about the strong men of old, I see that their strength is always manifested from obedience. The physical strength of Samson was obtained from obeying the vows which You set in order. The strength and victories of men like Joshua and David were accomplished by being obedient to the instruction of God.
So, in asking for strength and success for my child, I pray that he will have an obedient heart. I ask for a heart that will be sensitive to the voice of God.
I will teach him from an early age to obey Your voice before listening to the voices of man.
I will show him the rewards of obedience by recognizing the blessings around us.
I will speak of the value and completeness of serving our Creator, the One who knows us better than we know ourselves.
I will trust You for all that is needed to accomplish what has been directed. Our obedience is our strength and success.
May my child have success everywhere he goes. May everything he touches bring forth a bountiful harvest of reward and provision.
Each day he wakes, may he be aware of the present strength of the Lord for each task ahead.
“The Lord is the strength of my life; Of whom shall I be afraid?” (Psalm 27:1) As we walk forward by the instruction of the Lord, You are our strength. There will be nothing to fear when Your Word has been sent before us. It has made preparation for us.
We shall wait on You, Oh, Lord, and be of good courage, and You will strengthen our heart; Wait on the Lord! (Psalm 27:14)
In the name of Jesus---Amen

God Bless My Child with Great Abilities
Lord, You have blessed my son with many abilities. You have placed within him all that is needed to fulfill Your purpose for his life. I call for these gifts to reveal themselves, even now, to begin their growth.
Help me, as his parent, to recognize Your hand at work in his life; to see these stored talents ready for release.
Grant us wisdom for their maturing.
Place the perfect teachers and people of influence on his path.
During his play time, sleep time, and study time, mold his mind and spirit to hear Your voice.
Grant him the ability to obtain wealth; grant him the capacity to obtain knowledge; sharpen his vision to see Your hand at work around him.
As the disciples filled the needs of their Judean brothers (Acts 11:29), each according to his ability, so may my son have the heart to reach out of his wealth and storehouse to meet the needs of others.
May our home be the example of this selfless life. Begin with me to show my child that my abilities weren’t given to bury but to invest for a greater return for the Kingdom of God and for Your glory.
In the Name of Jesus---Amen

God Bless My Child with Good Health
Father, bless my son with a healthy life. May his days be long and absent from physical suffering.
As you created Adam, breathed life into him, and made a perfect man, may my child’s body function as you had set in order in the beginning.
Set every organ to work in proper order and limbs to grow straight and strong.
Grant him strong hands, arms, legs, and back to do the work set before him.
Keep him from the physical dysfunctions that plague our society.
Help me to teach him to care for his body inside and out, eating the foods you designed to give strength for a lifetime. Give him desire for the food that blesses his body.
During the years You have placed before him, he needs to walk out those years with the ability to move swiftly and not hindered by weakness of the body.
Remove any limitations aimed at his endurance.
Bless him abundantly with a covering of nourishment and safety.
May he honor You with his whole self; obedient to Your voice, expressive in his praise, and yielded completely as Your child.
Thank you for Your continual coverage of blessing.
In the Name of Jesus---Amen

God Bless My Child with Divine Favor
My Lord, rest Your favor upon my son. Look on him with favor and make him fruitful (Leviticus 26:9).
Moses said, “teach me Your ways so I may know You and continue to find favor with You.” (Exodus 33:12)
Teach my child Your ways and guide his steps toward knowing You. May Your words and presence intercept him time and time again until Your acquaintance becomes home and his comfort.
May Your favor rest upon his hands. Give him fruit for his labor. Bless all his hands find to do and grant prosperity within his home.
May he find favor in his body with perfect health and for safety to surround him.
Grant him the fullness of Your blessing.
Solomon said of wisdom, “Whoever finds me, finds life and receives favor from the Lord” (Proverbs 8:35). Oh, that my son will find wisdom! Place desire in his heart to seek for this divine knowledge that only comes from You.
May he find kindness in Your sight and desires granted as they line up with Your full purpose.
We remember Your acts of compassion toward us when you laid down Your life for Your Children. You showed us the favor of God through Your obedience to Him.
Thank you, Father, for this perfect gift.
