(From Power of a Praying Parent)

Lord,

Your word says, "I sought the Lord and He heard me and delivered me from all my fears." (Ps 34:4) I seek You this day, believing that You hear me, and I pray You will deliver ______ from any fear that threatens to overtake him. You said You have "not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind." (2Tim 1:7) Flood ______ with your love and wash away all fear and doubt. Give him a sense of Your loving presence that far outweighs any fear that would threaten to overtake him. Help him to rely on Your power in such a manner that it establishes strong confidence and faith in You.

Give him a mind so sound that he can recognize any false evidence the Devil presents to him and identify it as having no basis in reality.

Wherever there is real danger or good reason to fear, protect him and draw him close to you. Help him not to deny his fears, but take them to You in prayer and seek deliverance from them. I pray that as he draws close to You, Your love will penetrate his life and crowd out all fear. Plant Your word in his heart. Let faith take root in his mind and soul as he grows in Your word.

Thank you for Your promise to deliver us from all our fears. In Jesus' name I pray for freedom from fear on behalf of my children today.

Amen
