“The future is bright” is a phrase I’ve heard so much. But, who can tell what awaits us in this future?
As human beings, we can project and predict. Some of these projections may turn out true or false. However, there is someone who knows what tomorrow holds and even though we do not know what tomorrow holds, we know who holds tomorrow.
I know what I’m doing. I have it all planned out—plans to take care of you, not abandon you, plans to give you the future you hope for. Jeremiah 29:11 MSG
Today, we would be praying for the future of our children.

Therefore Lord, I receive for [Child/ren’s name] a successful future, a healthy future, a prosperous future, and a God-filled future in Jesus Name.
- Lord, I pray that [Child/ren’s name] is constantly surrounded by your angels. I do not know what tomorrow holds but Lord I know you are the custodian of [Child/ren’s name] future, so I declare that your angels go ahead of [Child/ren’s name] and make their paths clear in Jesus Name.
- Lord, I pray that [Child/ren’s name] will walk in moral integrity, obeying and living according to your instructions so that [Child/ren’s name] generations can enjoy your blessings in Jesus Name.
- Lord, I know that even while I have plans for [Child/ren’s name], they also have plans of their own.

- Lord, I pray for me [Child/ren’s name]’s mom; that you will help me not to think that I know best regarding the future of [Child/ren’s name]. Help me Lord to hand it all over to you.
