The Power of a Praying Parent Book of Prayers

This little book is exactly what I was looking for. It's filled with quick and easy prayers that I can cover all my five children with before I start my day! I have ordered many more copies to give away!!

Great!

Just what I wanted and needed. Fabulous. These prayers touch my deepest hearts desires for my children. I also use them for my husband and I. Actually they are prayers that can be applied for anyone including my enemies.

This book is a great resource that belongs on every parent's bookshelf. The market is brimming with books detailing the physical and behavioral development of children, yet so few of these books even admit that there is a spiritual side of things! If we want to care for all facets of our children, we must admit this truth into our lives. "Power of a Praying Parent" fills this gap by pointing out spiritual realities and suggesting ways that we can cover our childrens' lives with our prayers.The book is divided into managable chapters that highlight different areas where we can pray for our children. Each chapter starts out with an explanation of that area, followed by a prayer, and closes with scripture verses for reflection. I like this format because it is very adaptable. You could skip right to an area where you know that your child needs prayer, or you could start at the beginning and faithfully read each chapter as a general guide. Because the chapters are short, you could use a chapter as a devotional each time you pray. I also appreciate the way the scripture verses are typed out so that I don't have to spend time looking each one up.Omartian's tone is never heavy handed. Along the way, she admits her short comings and shares her struggles, and I always feel as if I have a wise but gentle friend whispering into my ear when I read her works.This is an excellent gift for parents who are expecting or for a parent struggling with a teen. Because the tone is so welcoming and compassionate, I also find it's a great witnessing tool. People who may be otherwise closed to the gospels are sometimes open to anything if they think that it may help their child. I'd also recommend this book to uncles, aunts, teachers, grandparents, youth workers, basically anyone who is interested in the welfare of our children.

Praise The Lord. This book is a must for any parent who truly wants the best for their child. The prayers in this book are so overwhelming. I have never felt so much joy. I have highlighted each prayer page for quick reference and I have learned that the power of prayer if the only real weapon against the devils plans for our children. I highly recommend that every parent invest in a copy of this book IMMEDIATELY! Begin Today and continually pray for your children no matter what age they are. Stormie has truly opened up a new world for me and my family. A Praying parent is the best blessing any child can hope to have....

I keep this book next to my bed near my bible and use it on a daily basis. This is a great book. In today's world every parent should be praying daily for their children. The prayers in this book give me the right words to use when asking for God's help. I now continue to buy copies of the book to share with my friends who are also raising children. We all need a little help at times.

I am a grandparent who bought this book to read and pass on to my daughter, however, I found it so powerful that I have to keep it to refer to in the future and I will have to buy another to give to my daughter. I read and prayed through this book in one day. I could not put it down. I prayed for my grown daughter and her husband, myself and my grandchildren. It has prayers for everything, things we may not even realize we need to pray for. Who knows the far reaching effects our prayers may have--it is a wonderful tool for any parent or grandparent to own. God Bless you Stormie for your wonderful book.
