Lord,
I pray that You would pour out Your Spirit upon (name of child) this day and anoint him (her) for all that You've called him(her) to be and do. Lord You have said "Let each one remain with God in that state in which he was called" (1Corinthians 7:24). May it be for this child according to Your Word, that he(she) never stray from what You have called him(her) to be and do, or try to be something he(she) is not.
Deliver him (her) from any evil plan of the devil to rob him(her) of life, to steal away his(her) uniqueness and giftedness, to compromise the path you've called him (her) to walk, or to destroy the person You created him(her) to be. May he (she) not be a follower of anyone but You, but may he(she) be a leader of people into Your kingdom. Help him(her) grow into a complete understanding of his(her) authority in Jesus, while retaining a submissive and humble spirit. May the fruit of the Spirit, which is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness gentleness, and self-control grow in him (her) daily (Galatians 5:22). May he(she) find his(her) indentity inYou, view himself(herself) as Your instrument, and know that he(she) is complete in You. Give him(her) a vision for his(her) life when setting goals for the future and a sense of purpose about what You've called him(her) to do. Help him(her) to see himself (herself) as You do - from his(her) future and not from his(her) past. May he(she) be convinced that Your thoughts toward him(her) a future and a hope (Jeremiah 29:11). Teach him(her) to look to You as his(her) hope for the future. May he(she) understand it is You "who have saved us and called us with a holy calling, not according to our works, but according to His own purpose and grace which was given to us in Christ Jesus before time began" (2 Timothy 1:9). May his (her) commitment to being who You created him(her) to be enable him (her) to grow daily in confidence and Holy Spirit boldness.
