your mood during the day is influenced by how you start the day. if you wake up grumpy and irritated, you’ll probably feel testy and unappreciative the rest of the day. however, starting the day off correctly with family morning prayers would undoubtedly have a good impact on the rest of the day.
starting the day with morning prayers sets the stage for the day ahead, when you follow god’s grace and encouragement. whatever you’re requestingâĢĶsafety, security, determination, or something elseâĢĶask for it first thing in the morning before being washed away by the demands of the day.
Morning prayers with your entire family are a rewarding ritual that allows you to devote your time and devotion to god. setting aside time with god is important, and doing so with your children will help to develop and reinforce their trust in god at a young age. it will also serve to improve your family bond and you will be focusing it on christ.

Morning Prayer Points
Our prayers are organized into prayer points. these are the thoughts we’d like to present to god. prayer points are often based on biblical values, claims, convictions, and affirmations. Some people use prayer points as a reference so that they can pray quickly without having to worry about their thoughts.
we’ve compiled a list of common prayer points that should be used in every family’s morning prayers.
Thanksgiving for a new day
let us rejoice and be glad in the lord’s day, which he has made.
118:24 in psalm 118
getting up to a new day is a gift in and of itself; don’t take it for granted. and give thanks to the lord for blessing you and your family with a brand new day to enjoy.
giving thanks to the lord first thing in the morning will hold you and your family full of grace and devotion, reminding you of the blessings you get every day.

thy term is a light to my direction and a torch to my foot.
psalm 119:105 is a verse from the book of psalms
some days all we need is a gentle reminder that god is with us every step of the way. If you are anticipating a difficult day or your kid is dreading going to bed, don’t hesitate to lift it up to him. for you and your family to face whatever lies ahead, pray for god’s protection and guidance.
pray for courage and discernment

4:13 in philippians
there are many challenges and stumbling blocks that one can face in one’s life. and, on occasion, we can not feel like praying; this is all the more reason to pray for the family. begin the day with a group prayer for spiritual, physical, and mental support to get through the day. take this opportunity to pray god’s holy spirit to give advice to help you overcome these difficulties.
make a prayer for family harmony
bear with one another and, if one has a grievance against another, forgive one another, just as the lord has forgiven you.
3:13 in colossians
âĢľthe family that prays together, remains together,âĢĿ as they say. it’s also important to pray for the family’s courage and reconciliation. request that god be at the centre of your family’s life, and pray for the strengthening of your family’s ties.
have a prayer of healing for the members of the family who are now experiencing a rift. we can not always get along with our families, but at the end of the day, we should make peace and enjoy each other.

children’s offspring are a shield for the elderly, and parents are their children’s joy
proverbs 17:6 is a verse from the book of proverbs
begin and day by thanking god for the lives of your loved ones. concentrate on the positive aspects of being a member of your family, and be thankful that god has rewarded you with them, whatever your differences.
pray for the ability to be a healthy family member
honor your father and mother such that your days in the land the lord your god is offering you will be long.
exodus 20:12 is a passage from the book of exodus
if you’re the mother, father, or boy, seek god’s help in becoming a good family member. Ask that you be a positive role model and a true parent who represents god’s heart for the kids. also, enlist his help in raising the twins.
for the girls, pray for god’s guidance so that you can be successful sons and daughters and contribute to the family rather than making problems. and, in the middle of a busy day, you bring joy to your friends.

and according to the abundance of his majesty in christ jesus, my god will provide all of your needs.
Philippians 4:19
