Summary
We’re off to a great start in praying for our kids this school year and I’m so glad you’re doing this with me! Week one (last week) we prayed for our kids’ salvation, which is hands down the most important thing we can pray for them.
This week we’re praying for a blessed life. But there’s a hitch! We want to know God’s version of living blessed instead of relying on the world’s definition. Psalm 1 is our focus passage and we’re given a very practical visual on the way that sin progresses. We’re reminded of the theme all throughout the Bible that God blesses obedience and judges disobedience, and a blessed life requires following God’s word.
Join me this week as we talk about the road to a blessed life and what that means as we pray for our kids. Oh, and be sure and share this with your friends! It’s such an honor to pray together for our kids to know and love the Lord.

| 0:17.7 | This is week two of praying through the Psalms for our kids. |

| 0:32.1 | they haven't accepted Jesus as the only way to have an ask forgiveness for their sins, |
| 0:37.0 | then we got to start right there |
| 0:38.6 | because we want our kids to have an eternity that's secure. |
| 0:42.0 | We want them to be in right relationship with the Lord. |
| 0:44.0 | We want them to live their lives differently each day because of the relationship with Jesus. |
| 0:48.9 | And so that was week one. |
| 0:50.6 | Feel free to jump back there and listen. |
| 0:52.8 | But that's something that we just continuously |
| 0:54.5 | pray of our kids, that they will have eternal salvation and they'll live differently because |
| 1:00.9 | of it. But then this week, we are praying for our kids to live a blessed life. Now, I don't know |
| 1:07.2 | about you, but when everybody was doing the hashtag blessed a few years ago, it totally threw me off and in a bad way rewrote what I think blessing looks like. |
| 1:15.9 | And not that I was above it, I'm sure I didn't actually tag hashtag blessed, |
| 1:19.9 | but I'm sure I posted things that made it look that way. |
| 1:23.4 | And blessing started to feel like we're only blessed if we have financial stability, if not better than that. |
| 1:30.1 | We really don't even want financial stability. |
| 1:31.7 | We want prosperity, right? |
