15 Scriptures to Pray Over Family and Ourselves

Try this at home. Here’s one feat I encourage every believer to try; insert the names of loved ones and your name into Scriptures.

Then, pray the Bible verses and see what happens.

Oh, I get excited thinking about what God’s up to; how He’s working behind the scenes.

But there’s working power we unleash in prayer when we speak truth and life from God’s Word.

Recently, I shared The Prayer I Prayed Over 5000 Times. It’s my story of when I met Christ at sixteen and started praying for my dad, an atheist.

Prayers for him to believe in the heavenly Father. And God answered my prayers sixteen years later when my dad gave his life to the Lord.

The Power of Praying Scriptures

Still, I struggled to believe my dad would ever become a Christ-follower.

Needing help with my own unbelief, I inserted my dad’s name into salvation Scriptures I prayed back to God. And loud enough for the enemy to know I was serious.

I believe it played a part in my dad’s salvation.

Also, praying the Bible acquaints us with the Scriptures, hides it in our hearts and reminds us of God’s promises.

I’m sharing 15 Scriptures I’ve personalized and prayed for family members or for myself. However, keep in mind the wealth of Bible topics available at our disposal.

Examples include: salvation, freedom from something, addictions, fear, healing, spiritual growth, strength, faith, trust, love, forgiveness, bondage, sin, wisdom, wayward souls, children and depression.

Simply research Bible verses that address your needs or those of family members.
