All-Powerful Father, You are my strong tower and You are almighty in power. You are my refuge and my strength. I pray that You guard me, Lord, and uphold me with Your righteous right hand.

God of Heaven’s Armies, please send Your angels to encamp around my son. I know that he will face many challenges as he grows up. Be with him wherever he goes.

Give me the ultimate blessing of faith. Amen.

Prayer for Grace Without Measure
Compassionate and Gracious God, You say that where sin has increased, grace has increased all the more. Thank You for more than enough grace to cover my sinfulness.

Prayer for the Blessing of Grace for My Coworkers
God of Loving Devotion, I pray that You would be with my coworkers and bless them with Your beautiful gift of grace as they seek to do their work. Let their conversations be always full of grace and seasoned with salt so that they communicate with each other and customers in a way that reflects Your goodness. Whenever they are feeling short-tempered or tired, please be with them all the more. Help us all, in whatever we do, to work heartily for You, knowing that we will receive our inheritance from You as our reward. Amen.

Wonderful Counselor, You say that You will instruct me and teach me in the way I should go. You say You will counsel me with Your loving eye on me. Do this for me, Lord Jesus. Bless me with Your guidance and wisdom during this season of my life and make my paths straight. Show me how to delight in Your law and Your word, precious Savior. Give me the time I need to be with You and to study Your scriptures. I know that the words of eternal life are with You, Lord Jesus, and so is Your truth.

You say to train up a child in the way he should go so that even when he is old, he will not depart from it. I have tried to do that, Lord, so that he/she will walk by Your side.
