How to be a Prayer Warrior for Your Children - Dr. Erwin Lutzer

Many parents are prone to worry or fear when it comes to the future of their children, specifically those who are unsaved or prodigals. In this interview, Dr. Erwin Lutzer shows parents of all types how to abandon their routine lists of requests and trade them for scriptural prayers that “will immerse you in God’s promises and will.”

I had a prodigal daughter who ran so far away from God. She tried everything imaginable and was very rebellious. After praying for over ten years for her heart to change, she called me one night and said she had confessed her sins and the love of Jesus had saved her. That was two years ago and she is a totally different person. Keep praying! God hears! Praise the Lord!

During my childhood I didn't wait for my parents to teach me about God but at the age of 8 years old I seriously read my Bible ( good news bible).. although I am not understand it but it's knocked some sense to me . A few years after that people from the church including the pastor help me to study the Bible till I get a clear picture why I need Jesus in my life . I am from a chaotic home ...my father is an alcoholic..my mother working very hard to provide for the family. As a little child I don't like the way my parents handle their own family , that's why in my little child head I make a serious commitment to God that I will not let my life to be like my parent's had. Because of my seriousness in God, many years later I managed with the help from God brought all my siblings and our parents to accept Jesus in their life . My father once he accepted Jesus into his life also stop drinking till today. Sometimes God uses little child to bring Jesus unto a broken home ...Amenn

I raised up my now adult kids in church for the past 22 years. Both of them walked away from the Lord and didnt want to come around me because I am a Christian. In November of 2022 my 33 yr old son took his life and my daughter was the last one to see him, so shes more stand offish from me then before. Im praying that my daughter gets sick of living with out the Lord and crys out to the Lord during this time of grieving. She needs Jesus. Im standing on the Word of the Lord for myself and her during this time. May the Lord reach her heart and change her. 😊

I’m 19 years old, it’s so hard to be a Christian teenager and many teenagers don’t believe in Jesus but i want them to believe in Jesus I’ll pray for them everyday and I’ll keep my faith forever 💗💗🙌🙌

[@focusonthefamily]

Hello, friend! The frustration you feel is understandable. However, we believe the Lord can give you the strength you need to stand firm under pressure and reach out to those who may not believe in Jesus. We’re praying for you and hope the words of Proverbs 3:5-6 will inspire you: “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your paths straight.” God bless you.

[@sharonmacdonald4163]

I prayed scriptures over my son dj daily morning, noon, evening & the midnight hour June 8 th 2020 he left for the hospital for an infection, there he got covid. For another month he was in the hospital they put him on a trach....he ended up passing July 30th...I stayed outside of the hospital in Mesa Az just praying for him from the early morning into the midnight. He was in a coma and I couldn't go see him but I did what I had to do stayed near him in prayer he passed July 30...the hardest evening ever but in spite of all that I know the Lord heard my prayer even though I wanted him come home. I miss him so much he was 39 years young.

My five children break my heart. It was not until I turned 50 that I became a Christian and gave my life to my Lord, resulting in my children growing up not knowing Jesus. They accept the fact that I believe but I have been strongly told not to speak if Jesus in their homes. I pray every day for them.

[@gfzfz1384]

My heart relates to this struggle. I too was not raising my kids as close to God as I know Him now. Same problem, I grew close to Jesus Christ after my kids were grown. Also the heartache of them not wanting to hear about Him. It’s very painful knowing that I failed them in such a critical area of the heart. I’m sorry anyone has to feel this kind of heartache. I’m thankful though to find your comment. I’ve felt like the only one for years. God bless you🙂

My second son Avish had given his hart to the lord for a short time, about 6 Months and is gone back to drugs. I feel so hopeless and helpless and can't understand that this could happen to him. Please stand with me in Jesus name. 😊

I was a prodigal daughter. Baptized in my teenage years…but left the faith In my early 20s up to my 30s. Was in the world and “enjoying “ life…I’m sure my mom prayed for me. It’s not till after I had my first child that I came back to church occasionally. My husband too eventually joined me but we weren’t 100%. Then after Covid when churches opened up we both went back fully and committed and my husband even got baptized. His mom had been praying for him for an extremely long time. Now I pray for my brothers to come back to the faith. Nothing is impossible. This was a great video because I felt I was praying over my kids the same prayer and it was becoming stale. I love praying thru a scripture. Even tho my kids are still young it’s never to early to pray over them. God bless 🙏

Glad I seen this video. My heart had been aching because my kids have drifted away from the Lord. They are in their early 20’s now. We have different opinions about things and one of my sons gets offended over everything and holds grudges . It’s like walking on egg shells around him. This has been so hard to walk through and is such a burden for me. 😢I was not the most perfect mom but I raised them to love the Lord and I did my best. All I can do is pray now

Wonderful podcast! Our children are not like the prodigal of the New Testament. They are successful in their chosen field, but not walking with God at all. I finally understood the verse "pray without ceasing". I don't think it means pray 24/7 which is impossible, but pray without giving up. I am determined not to ever give up praying for our two adult children.

Hello, Shirley. One of the hardest things in life is to wait for the salvation of someone close.

May the Lord bless you as you look to Him in faith.

The video is showing how YOU as a parent should and must pray for YOUR children. The Bible says pray without ceasing which means you should never give up in this task, regardless of what you see with your eyes. Its our responsibility as parents, especially as mothers.

[@deemisquadis9437]

Some relatives, think that you give birth to children, to live their lives, they plan everything for them, up to where to live what house to buy, what job to have, and then they take over the grandbabies. Well myself, I gave my children a life to live on their own, I gave them wisdom and wings, like my mom would do, and let them fly. I was there when they needed me, and used some tough love here and there, but they became wonderful people. They made themselves, I didn't live their life and didn't make them live mine. I trust in Jesus and taught my kids well with his guidance. ❤

This blessed me more than you'll ever know. Listening while walking to my office, when I got there, I got on my knees poured my heart out to the Lord with a scriptual prayer for my son, Kenny; an answered prayer I had just this past Friday asking the Lord what His silence is telling me and to help me to see what I am not doing. I trust the Lord hears the cries of a sincere parents prayer, and he answers in His way that will touch you where you know it's coming from Him. This video came on my feed out of nowhere. Never heard or seen anyone in this video before. I thank God for bringing this video to me. Parents dont give up on your children. The Lord will save them! I Believe!! Amen🙏🏾

[@lesliebooth2833]

I have three 30-something daughters all fallen away. One is a card-carrying atheist. I pray daily, sometimes hourly. I pray the Scriptures but not as often as I should although I have Ez 36:26-27 taped above my desk even as I type this and pray it often! But I love the idea of praying THROUGH the Scriptures, finding multiple verses that are apropos to the situation and keeping it new and fresh. Thank you for this!

I am Catholic, and I have never heard a priest from our Catholic Church teach parents how to pray for their children. Never ever thought of how we can pray scriptural prayers for our children, it's beautiful. Yes, there have been times when I too thought that God is not answering my prayer, so has my eldest boy, who has been out of a job for 8 yrs now. But, your statement of God is not indifferent was so meaningful and deep. I guess my son has in these last few years grown closer to our Lord and Saviour and, I'm happy. But he keeps asking why is God not answering my prayer for a job. It's difficult to explain.

I was in my school... It was my lunch break... Suddenly I happened to hear Dr Erwin's message. It opened my eyes... I didn't get up from my seat... I even forgot my lunch. A colleague of mine entered my cabin... She sat next to.... Listening the message with me... I saw tears rolling down her eyes as well as mine. From now I want my son to first seek the Kingdom of God... Jesus to capture his heart. God bless you!

One of my favorite scriptures to pray is Luke 2:52; that my grandchildren grow in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and man, as Jesus did.

[@margaretgreen2826]

Thank you so much , my adult children have both made commitments to GOD both seem to fall away , my son especially struggles with believing that The Bible is true, He looks different with large piercing’s in his ears and nose with tattooed arms and has felt rejection from many churches and Christian people. He turns 50 yrs on the 12 of April this month, he has suffered rejection from his father ( who is an unbeliever ) for those 50 yrs , he is on a disability pension struggle with depression has often told me he has thought of ways of ending his life . I have a very strong faith in GOD I walk each step by faith . I used to pray scripture not sure why I stopped . But will start again now .

[@elizabethgerber6610]

First time listening from UK. I scrolled past then scrolled back and listened to the end. Thank you so much for scripture prayers.

[@crownofsplendor2023]

My mom prayed for all of her kids. A few of us came to the Lord before she passed, the one that most would think was the farthest away from God came to the Lord within a year after her passing.(Reality is, we are all equally far away from Him, apart from Christ) I pray the others will too🙏 It gives me so much hope that we may not even see it, but God is always working behind the scenes and we can still hope and trust the God is good no matter what.

[@jo-anne7963]

Our prodicals, return with much hatred, but God's Grace is sufficient, where sin increase, God's grace abound more

[@bernice9807]

I was told 28 years ago to pray the word of God over my children. I notice when they are in the darkest parts of life I remember this and pray the Scriptures over them. What a wonderful teaching.

[@nancydb1390]

So glad I listened.

[@Realgraylevox]

Hello, how are you doing today? Thanks for your love and support🙏❤️

[@nancyborden210]

I have three adult children and they all have the best hearts which they get from their dad. I was a stay at home mom and we attended church for a time but never really committed to it. My husband’s family all have wonderful hearts which I think comes from my wonderful mother-in-law. I am a nice person but I can see my lack of heart in raising my children. Dr. Lutzer’s comment about apologizing to your children is something that has been on my mind for a time. I don’t think of my children as lost but maybe it would help them in their struggles with life’s ups and downs. It’s a place to start.

[@janetnyoni4669]

Lord teach me how to pray for my children with your word. Give me the revaluation of your word

[@jackierobinsonm4807]
