One of our core values for Peony Market is Strength. Strength means taking care of yourself mentally, physically, spiritually and emotionally. As believers in Christ, prayer is the beginning of a beautiful relationship with Christ. Prayer with God renews our mind, takes daily discipline, draws us in intimate relationship with Christ and keeps us dependent on God meeting our needs. Therefore, prayer with Christ interceding on our behalf strengthens our well being.
As moms, dads and grandparents we have the opportunity to stand in the gap for our children and grandchildren. As they may be new in their faith or not yet believers, we can read God’s word, pray, and sing to them. While we go through our day with children in our care, enjoy talking with them about God’s goodness. Look at nature, the clouds, flowers and describe how God created all of these things for us to enjoy and take care in appreciation for the earth.
Peony Market is featuring three products to strengthen our own faith as we read His word and pray for our cherished ones. The Jesus Storybook Bible, Praying for our Children, and The Prayer Box.. Each of these products can be bought online.
The Jesus Storybook Bible was introduced to me when I taught Kindergarten. I know that through prayer and reading this precious book many seeds were planted in my students’ hearts. The Jesus Storybook Bible highlights the main stories of the Old and New Testaments. The main theme is that God sent His Son to rescue His children from sin. I love the illustrations and the stories capture the children’s attention. As a class, we always prayed for one another and those on our hearts as well.
In Corin.3:6-8 it says, “I planted, Apollos watered, but God gave the growth. So neither he who plants nor he who waters is anything, but only God who gives the growth. He who plants and he who waters are one, and each will receive his wages according his labor.” We have the opportunity to co-labor with others and be rewarded in Heaven for sharing Christ.
Our Prayer Box has individual cards to write specific prayers for our children, grandchildren or for those you cherish. The book, Praying For your Children, can be a great resource to look up a specific scripture quickly. These tools equip us to be strong prayer warriors, releasing control to God. Prayer helps align our will with God’s will. As we become more disciplined with our prayer life we depend and trust in God and His sovereignty. We will see God’s faithfulness and prayers being answered with those we love.
Begin this school season with these special products to help you by praying intentionally and reading God’s word to those you cherish! Enjoy the rest of your summer with your family and friends!
