Praying The Scriptures For Your Children – Jodie Berndt

Every parent prays for their children. But most parents pray the same vague, well-intentioned prayers — “Lord, keep them safe, bless them, help them to be good” — and wonder quietly whether those prayers are actually reaching heaven. Praying the Scriptures for Your Children by Jodie Berndt answers that question with a definitive yes — and then shows every parent exactly how to move from general spiritual hoping to specific, targeted, Scripture-anchored intercession that aligns your prayers with God’s own revealed purposes for your child’s life.

Now celebrating its 20th Anniversary Edition, this is one of the most enduring and beloved parenting prayer books ever published — trusted by hundreds of thousands of parents across twenty years for one simple reason: it works.

The Central Insight: When you pray Scripture over your children, you are not telling God what you want — you are agreeing with what He has already said. And there is no more powerful prayer a parent can pray than one built on the promises, the wisdom, and the purposes of the living Word of God. This book teaches you how to do exactly that — for every area of your child’s life.

Why Kenyan Parents Are Buying This Book: Kenyan parents pray for their children — with fervour, consistency, and genuine faith. What Praying the Scriptures for Your Children adds is precision. It takes the fervour Kenyan parents already have and channels it into specific, Scripture-anchored prayers that align with God’s revealed purposes rather than just parental desire. The result is a prayer life for your children that is not just more powerful — it is more peaceful, because you are praying in agreement with God rather than trying to persuade Him.
