The family is the "apple of His eye". (see Zechariah 2:8)
Therefore His Word contains many promises for your strength and
encouragement. Here are a few:
Exodus 12:23; Matthew 5:24-27
Psalms 91:9-10; Luke 1:17
Proverbs 12:7; Acts 2:38-39; 16:30-31
Isaiah 44:3; 49:24-27; Psalm 71:5-21
Jeremiah 31:16-17; Matthew 18:2-6; 19:14
There are also generational iniquities, sins and curses that are passed
to the children that need to be understood, recognized, confessed, and
broken.
Listed below are some Biblical examples of this principle and prayers that
were offered in intercession.
Daniel 9:4-19 Isaiah 65:6-7
Nehemiah 1:4-11 Jeremiah 14:20-22; 16:10-13
Deuteronomy 27 & 28; 29:24-28 Psalm 64
Ezra 9:4, 13-15 2 Chronicles 7:19-22; 34:23-25
We would encourage you to study the lives and lineage of Abraham, Isaac, and
Jacob; David and Solomon.
Observe the struggles they experienced in dealing with their own cruel nature and the results evident in the lives of their children. Then observe God's love, mercy & transforming power build faith in their hearts.
Example
of
Prayer for your Children
In each place where there is a blank space in the following prayer,
write in the name of your child.
"Father, I/we come to You in the Name of Jesus, standing on the
promises Youve given me/us concerning my/our family. Your will for
my/our family is for us to walk in unity and love, free from all forces of
darkness.
Now in the Name of Jesus, backed by the authority of Your Word, Father,
I/we take authority over the devil and the spirit of rebellion which he
has brought into the life of ____________________; I/we break the
strongholds of darkness over _______________________s life now
according to 2 Corinthians 10:4-5.
And I thank You, heavenly Father, that your Word is working mightily in
the life of ___________.
Amen."
Proclamation
The following statement should be spoken aloud after you have confessed
and repented from any sins that God has shown you have been blocking your
childs ability to grow in the Lord.
"Satan, I/we command you in the Name of Jesus to remove your
deceptive influence and cease from blinding __________________s mind
any longer. I/we proclaim now that _____________ is free to receive the glorious light of the gospel of Christ and that
he/she is free from the spirit of rebellion because of the shed blood of
Jesus Christ."
Prayer against Corporate and Generational Iniquities,
Sins and Curses
"Father, I come before you as Daniel did to confess and repent of
my sin and the iniquity of my forefathers. Forgive us for the sins of
idolatry, witchcraft, rebellion, immorality of any kind, and all
addictions. (Add anything the Holy Spirit
prompts you to include.)
According to Ephesians 6:12, I loose this family from all the
principalities and powers trying to influence me or my family, and I
forbid them to operate in the name of Jesus. I declare that this family is
under the blood of Jesus; I revoke any generational curses and say they
will go no further. Jesus became a curse for us, (Galatians
3:13) and we are a generation
that serves God.
Father, forgive us for depending upon any source besides you for peace
and fulfillment. Pour out your supernatural power in my family, so we will
not be bound by the things of the natural world. I ask you to send warrior
angels to do battle on our behalf. Thank you that my children will take
their place in the body of Christ and fulfill your calling upon their
lives.
Father, I submit to you, and my hope and expectations are from you
alone. (Psalm 62:5) By
the power and authority of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, I declare any
satanic influence directed toward me or my family defeated by Jesus
death on the cross.
Thank you for freeing us from the bondage of our past and cleansing us
by the blood of Christ. Thank you for our positive heritage for those
ancestors who did follow you and prayed for us. Thank you for your mercy
and for the blessings you bestow upon me and my family. Amen."
May this study be a blessing to you and your family is our prayer in
the Name of Jesus!
