Buku 5 Things to Pray for Your Parents – Chelsea Stanley

  Fresh ideas to help you pray for your parents.

The  Bible calls us to honor our parents—and one way we can do that is by  praying for them. Little children often see their mothers and fathers as  the ones with all the answers. It’s not until we grow up that we  realize our parents are just like us—regular people in need of prayer. 

This  guide will help you to pray rich, intentional prayers for your mother  or father—be they biological or adoptive, working or retired, frail or  fit, married or separated, believers or unbelievers. Whatever their  situation, if we want to love them well, we need to pray.

Each  of the 21 prayer themes in this book takes a passage of Scripture and  suggests five things to pray for a particular area of your parents’  lives. You can use this book in any number of ways: work through it as  part of your daily quiet time or pick it up whenever a particular need  arises.

The command to honor our parents comes with a  beautiful promise—“that it may go well with you” (Ephesians 6 v 3). The  hope of this guide is that you will reap this blessing as you come  before God with prayers that change things for an older generation.
