Have you ever found yourself praying over your kids with desperation but not seeing any real change? I’ve been there—crying out to God like, “Lord, please help,” but feeling like nothing was shifting. In this episode of the Revival Mom podcast, I’m sharing what changed everything for me: praying Scripture over my children with boldness, authority, and the help of the Holy Spirit.
I walk you through how I began speaking God’s word out loud over my boys and how that one simple act of obedience led to breakthrough—not just in their behavior but in my confidence as a mom. I’ll show you how to ask the Holy Spirit what to pray, how to find Bible verses that match what your child is going through, and how to declare truth even when your circumstances haven't changed yet.
You’ll hear powerful stories from my own journey and a beautiful testimony from my friend Jen about how her son’s speech delay started to shift when she began praying the Word over him daily. I’ll also share how God reminded me that His word does not return void—and what happens when we stop praying from emotion and start praying from truth.
If you're a Christian mom who wants to grow in confidence, operate in spiritual authority, and see real change in your children’s lives, this episode will stir your faith. Whether you're dealing with tantrums, sibling fights, or deeper struggles with identity, you’ll walk away knowing exactly how to invite the Holy Spirit into your parenting.
And if you’re not sure where to start, I created a free resource just for you. Grab my Ignite Revival Prayers & Declarations guide at revivalmomprays.com. You’ll find simple, powerful verses to declare over your kids and your home—starting today.
