Are you prepared for Grandparents’ Day of Prayer?

It’s only 10 days till Grandparents’ Day of Prayer. Our grandchildren and their parents face many issues, such as wearing masks in school, vaccines for children, curriculum, etc., depending on where you live. We often feel like we are in a spiritual battle.

Spiritual battles require spiritual weapons. The strongest weapon in our arsenal is prayer.  We need to get on our knees, humble ourselves, seek God’s face, repent of our sin, and intercede on behalf of our children and grandchildren. Then having done all, we must stand firm in our faith that God has heard and will answer our prayers according to His will. You probably pray intentionally for your children daily. However, it is good to make Grandparent’s Day a special Day of Prayer

Tells us… “Do not be afraid, and do not be dismayed . . .  for the battle is not yours but God’s” (2 Chronicle 20:15).
