Cover Them in Prayer:
Prayer works. Period. As simple as this is, prayer truly works, and going into battle and doing the spiritual warfare makes a huge difference. It is so much easier to put your armor of God on before battle, rather than putting it on when you are already down. Imagine being in a war; if you put on your armor before you go into battle, you are prepared and equipped to take on the battle. However, if you did not prepare before battle. Imagine going into battle without your equipment on and getting injured and then you decided to put your armor on. How hard would that be, with an injured arm or injured leg, trying so hard to put this heavy armor on? It would be a huge struggle! We need to always be prepared and equip ourselves and our children fully with the armor of God.
Pray for a covering when they go to school, during their everyday lives. Pray they meet the right people and have the right friends group. Pray favor over each and every one of them. Pray for their future, their spouse, friends, education, health, and wealth. Allow prayer for your kids to become a daily habit. We pray every morning before school, we pray over every trial, every "ouchie", every sickness, and over any way they might be feeling. We apply the word of God to their lives to counter whatever attack is coming against them. We also pray before our meals and before bed. I want my children to know who to turn too, who to go to with their questions, with their thanksgiving, or in times of trouble.
"He forgives all my sins and heals all my diseases. He redeems me from death and crowns me with love and tender mercies. He fills my life with good things. My youth is renewed like the eagle’s!" Psalms 103:3-5
