Children of divorce

Father, I pray for divided families and crumbling homes: be their help in time of trouble. Heal those families. Take away the point of antagonism and bring peace and restoration of relationships. Align these lives and homes with your word and your will.

Father, I pray for the children of broken marriages. Shield them. Protect their hearts. Help them to find their true identity in you, Lord. Be their refuge. Help them to find stability in good places. Let your church rise up and be a covering for them. Give your church divine insight into how best to minister to these young ones who are at risk. Lead, guide, and establish your church as a resource to these hurting children of divorce.

In the name of Jesus’ I bind all the lies that the enemy would whisper to these vulnerable children. I loose the truth of your love, forgiveness and mercy.

I call forth teachers and adult authorities into their lives to guide them into healthy thinking and responses. I take authority over every root of bitterness that would become established in their hearts. Help them to turn to you for comfort and stability. Be a father to the fatherless. Nurture the motherless. Be the safety net for those who are falling through the cracks of broken homes and broken families.

Help them to see and know that all they need they will find in you.

Jesus, be their answer.
