Thank you for posting this! My children also seem to be far from the Lord, although my wife honors Him in her heart, quietly! We need empowering to reach our children, to have Father God reach them with His grace and love, (as if He is not fully stretched out to all that would respond to Him already)! "Dear Father in heaven, your pure and holy word is our empowerment as you display your holy will to us, and the way we should go! Your word says that what we bind on earth is bound in heaven, and what is loosed on earth is loosed in heaven! Believing your word, and speaking with confidence before you, through the mighty name of Jesus and by your Spirit, we now Bind all natural and spiritual interference to our partners and our children, be bound in Jesus holy name, Do not touch our partners or children again, and we claim in Jesus holy name loosing and freedom from All the bondage placed upon these people by this and all interference that denies Father God's truth, that they see and hear clearly and understand the reality of Jesus Christ, what He has done for us, and claim revelation of their ability to respond to His offer of life through Him, even to the Father in heaven and be touched by His very great love for us all! Dear Father, you love us so much, and we love you, and want to love you more and more and bring glory to your precious name through your word, the Lord Jesus Christ, Amen!"
