Praying for my Grandchildren Flashcards
Lord, I lift up my grandchildren to You. Braxton, Greyson, Mikaylyn and all of Stephanie’s children. Show me how to express my deep, unconditional love for each of them in a way they can clearly perceive and receive. Reveal to me the many ways I can demonstrate my love for each child. If there is a place in my heart where I feel rejected or unloved, I bring that to You for healing. I don’t want to carry anything in my heart that shouldn’t be there. Set me completely free from all unforgiveness today so there is no mountain of separation between me and my children or grandchildren. Keep my heart clean so that my prayers are never hindered.
In Jesus’ name I pray.

Lord, if there are any strongholds of separation or breaches of relationships in my family, dissolve those completely. Burn away any barriers to total forgiveness in the hearts of the people involved. Help me to pray so powerfully for my grandchildren that they sense Your love and mine for them. Enable my prayers to touch them deeply and create a bond of love between us. Enable me to be one of the “peacemakers” You have described in Your Word. I know that functioning in that role distinguishes me as a child of Yours (Matthew 5:9). I pray for Your peace that passes all understanding to reign in my family and the families of my children and grandchildren. In Jesus’ name I pray.

Lord, I lift up to You my grandchildren’s parents, Owen & Andrea, Stephanie & Demarcus, Kimi & Ralph and Alexis. Help them to get along as a couple and not allow strife or arguments to pull them apart. Teach them to seek harmony, unity, and peace in their home every day. I pray they will love each other and not allow a spirit of divorce to break up their family. I know You hear my prayers, and You can enable someone I pray for to better hear from You if he or she desires to do so. I pray that each parent of my grandchildren will be able to express love for his or her children in ways that can be clearly perceived so that the children always feel loved.
In Jesus’ name I pray.

Lord, fill my grandchildren’s parents with Your love so that it overflows from them to their children. Give them obvious signs of love such as mercy, forgiveness, patience, generosity of heart, acceptance, and encouragement-not only for their children, but also for one another. Remind them to make their children a priority, next to their love for You and each other. Give them the ability to communicate their love to their children in a way that makes it clear to them. I pray that the parents will never use their children to punish each other or the grandparents because of a spirit of revenge, which is totally against Your will. Help them to put their children’s needs first before themselves.
In Jesus’ name I pray.

Lord, pour out Your love on my grandchildren. Braxton, Greyson, Mikaylyn, Madi and all of Stephanie’s children. I pray that my grandchildren will know You well and have hearts that are filled with Your love, peace, and joy so they will live peaceful lives. Help them “to know the love of Christ which passes knowledge” so that they will experience the fullness of all that You are, and all that You have for them (Ephesians 3:19). Open their hearts to trust that nothing can separate them from Your love. That’s because when they say they are sorry to You and promise to not do it again, You forgive them. Help my grandchildren learn that when we look to You first, You provide everything we need because You love us. In Jesus’ name I pray.
