Scripture: Matthew 15:21–28

Praying Parents

Matthew 15:21-28

 

 

Barriers for the Canaanite woman:

 

  • Jesus ignores her.

 

  • Jesus excludes her.

 

  • Jesus embarrasses her.

 

 

Parent Prayers:

 

“Lord, change me.”

 

“Lord, my child is yours.”

 

“Lord, work in my child’s heart.”

 

“Lord, I am going to trust you.”

 

 

 

Take Home Idea: Parents, when we pray for our children with a faith that persistently and desperately seeks God’s mercy, we move God’s heart.
