Warrior Prayers -- Day 21

21 Days of Prayer for our Sons…

Congratulations!! What an accomplishment!! This has not been an easy task, if you’re like me, the devil has put roadblocks along your way. Just think of all the work that has been done on behalf of your children! I’m proud of you, MOM!

Today’s Prayer in on HUMILITY…

Brooke McGlothlin states in the Warrior Prayers Leader Guide:

“I chose humility as our last day’s topic because it is such an amazing posture of the heart. Scripture just seems to scream God’s favor over those who are humble in heart.

James 4:10 says that if we’re humble before the Lord, He will lift us up.

1 Peter 5:6 says that if we humble ourselves under the mighty hand of God, He will exalt us.

Most importantly, in Psalm 149:4 we find that it is the humble who are adorned with salvation.

A humble heart is required for salvation! Just as Jesus humbled Himself unto the cross, we must admit that we’re sinners, admit that our OWN way is NOT the right way, and HUMBLY ask for forgiveness before salvation comes.

Do you show humility before your sons? Do you always have to be right? Always have to win? Pray an ask the Lord for specific ways you can show humility today so that when the time comes, your sons will know how to show it too.

“Be completely humble and gentle; be patient, bearing with one another in love.” - Ephesians 4:2

Today’s verses are:

James 4:10

1 Peter 5:6

James 4:6

2 Chronicles 7:14

Psalm 25:9

1 Peter 3:8

Matthew 11:29

Psalm 149:4

Ephesians 4:2

1 Peter 5:5

As we finish this 21 Day Challenge, will you please share in the comments a specific way this challenge has been meaningful to you?

Also, will you consider praying and asking God to give you 3 specific things that you can pray for your children each day? It could be 3 of the topics or 3 certain verses or something else God has revealed to you through this challenge.

Congratulations again on completing this 21-day challenge to pray! Let’s keep praying for our children!

Praying for humility,

Kim

  1. This challenge has indeed been a challenge, but certainly a meaningful one. Satan has tried to thwart my efforts but I've refused to back down. I will be intentional about praying for my sons! This challenge helped me to have a focus to my prayers and that's what was most meaningful to me. Thanks to Brooke for issuing the call and to you, Kim, for all your hard work in preparing these posts. I've enjoyed being a part of this group.
