21 Days of prayer

For your kids & grandkids

There are few things more important you can do for your children or grandchildren than pray for them. For the next 21 days, set aside a few minutes each day to intentionally bring them before God.

Each day will guide you through three simple steps:

1. Scripture to Read

Begin by reading the short passage of Scripture for the day. Read it slowly and allow God’s Word to shape your prayers.

2. Things to Remember

Before you pray, take a moment to remember what is true. These simple reminders will help you think biblically about your child, remember God’s promises, and trust Him with the things you cannot control.

3. Prayers to Pray

Use the three prompts to pray specifically for your child or grandchild. You can pray them exactly as written or use them as a starting point for your own prayer.

21 Days of Prayer

Keep Praying

You have reached Day 21, but you have not reached the end of praying for your children or grandchildren

Your responsibility is to faithfully love them, teach them, model Jesus for them, and continually place them in the hands of the God who loves them

“Pour out your heart like water in the presence of the Lord. Lift up your hands to him for the lives of your children.” Lamentations 2:19

Day 1: Pray That They Will Know Jesus

Scripture to Read

“Now this is eternal life: that they know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent.” John 17:3

Things to Remember

  1. Your greatest hope for your child is not simply that they are successful, safe, happy, or well behaved. It is that they know Jesus.
  2. You can teach them about God, bring them to church, and model faith for them, but only God can transform their heart.


Prayers to Pray

  1. Jesus, help them know You. Open their eyes to see who You are and draw them into a genuine relationship with You.
  2. Jesus, help them love You. May their faith become more than knowledge, tradition, or something inherited from our family.
  3. Jesus, help them follow You. Give them a lifelong desire to trust You, obey You, and walk with You.
