Mothers

-God, we thank you for every mother around the globe, and we pray specifically for every pregnant mother. We pray for life and for a healthy pregnancy for mom and child. We pray for safety over every mom and every child throughout their entire pregnancy, and we pray for a safe delivery. We pray for a pain free delivery process for mothers around the globe. We pray for the uterus to be a safe haven for every baby, and that you would teach these babies before they are born to worship you God in spirit and in truth. We pray for every woman’s uterus and birth canal, and we pray for a blessing over these parts you have created. We pray for babies to be in the correct position as they prepare for birth, and we pray for a safe travel through the birth canal and into this world. We pray for every baby to enter this world with healthy lungs and healthy bodies, from head to toe. We thank you for your medical professionals globally who help bring every child into the world, and we pray a blessing over them and the work of their hands.

-We pray for every mother globally to have a depth in relationship with their children that goes beyond understanding. We pray for a deep love that resembles the love of our heavenly father for his creation. We pray for a godly wisdom and understanding for every mother as they raise their children. We pray that they would be filled with your love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control.* Help each mother live with joy and laughter. Help each mother live out the purpose you have designed them for. Father, we pray for positive affirmation to flood the hearts and minds of each mother. We pray for every need of every mother to be met through the mighty name of Jesus Christ. We pray for community support and access to necessary resources. We pray for safety in their homes and in their communities. We pray that every mother would live in an environment free from all forms of violence and abuse. Father, we pray for “the village” to come alongside mothers and help raise their children. We pray that you God would help establish their identities as mothers and as individuals. We pray for daily opportunities for each mom to take care of themselves. Help them to be with you daily, our Father in heaven.    

-We pray for the mother’s relationship with the father of their children. We pray for unity, harmony, and fellowship as they raise their children in partnership. We pray that they would be spirit led as they raise their children towards the plans you have for these children. Help them to train up their children in the Word of the Lord, so that when they are old, they will not turn from it.
