Prayer For My Newborn Baby Girl
God of Unfailing Love, thank You for blessing me with my newborn baby. I do not take my child's life for granted, so I pray that my child cultivates a heart for You. I pray that my child will not be selfish, nor will my baby try to impress others, despite the pressures of society. I pray that my baby will be humble, thinking of others as better than himself/herself, not looking out for his/her own interests, but the interests of others. Amen.
Jesus, my Savior, I pray over the life of this newborn baby and I praise You for this precious gift that came from You. Jesus, I pray that my child grows in the grace and the knowledge of You, my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Knowing You is the greatest gift one can experience in life. Let this infant's life be one that is set apart from the world. Let this infant's life be an example of Your glory here on earth. Amen.
Thank you, gracious God, for the promise contained in her name for who this little girl will be one day. Already she is a deep joy to her family. I do pray that you make that a continuing reality. That she would fill the lives of all she knows with that deep, cavernous joy that comes with being in the presence of one graced with the gifts of God. I also pray that she would live into her name, whose character reflects that warm, earthy depth of her mother and father.
Holy Father, thank you for your many gifts. Thank you specifically for this new blessing of a wonderful little girl. Thank you for your providence that has brought her to us. Thank you for this grace of life as parents. I anticipate that we will not stop giving thanks to you for her all of our days.
My sweet daughter, as you commemorate the day God made you a part of the human race, I pray that you will rise above human expectation in all spheres of your life and shine as bright as a star in space.
Lord, I feel so fortunate to have you as my baby because you are a light in my life. May your beginning of great things in your life. May the Lord surround you with peace, prosperity, true friends, and most importantly true happiness all the days of your wonderful life.
Thank You for Your Word, which breathes life into our tired souls and minds. You promise to meet us there, in study and prayer. Thank You for the sacrifice Jesus made on the cross, paying with His life for our ease of access to our Heavenly Father through prayer and Scripture. Each biblical story and truth weave in and out our lives in Your perfect timing.
May my baby girl walk before You, God, as King David walked, with integrity of heart and uprightness, doing according to all that You have commanded him, and keeping Your statutes and rules
