Parenting can be one of the greatest challenges in life, but there is comfort in resting on the strength of our Lord. It is easy to feel lost, inadequate, or uncertain as a parent, but these feelings are all a common prerequisite to the greatness you will achieve once you overcome them. Mike Shreve has written a comprehensive and uplifting prayer devotional of the blessings that God has on your life. For any parent who needs a reminder of the great future that God has designed for your family, I would highly recommend this book.

Thank you, Mike, Elizabeth, Destiny, and Seth, for having a part in this amazing book of miracles and realizing the truth and power of Gods Word. Our family has been richly blessed by this book as our adult children are weaving their way through child rearing. Thank you, Shreve family!

Our greatest investment and contribution to the future of our planet is the quality of the children we parent. Children are not only Gods heritage but also our divine stewardship responsibility as we are charged with producing righteous seed to impact the next generation. This book is a major contribution to our efforts in cultivating children through effective prayer and spiritual development. I highly recommend this work to all who love children and their destiny.

On the day I picked up this important book, I had just been counseling with a father who was being faced with the choice of pursuing hard after money and business, or pursuing hard after the call of God on his family and home. As a pastor I know firsthand that the enemy is out to annihilate the family unit and take our children as spoil. Mike Shreve and I share a similar call to turn the hearts of the fathers to the children (Luke 1:17), and his book is an excellent daily handbook for parents who are serious about following Gods directive to lead their children in a godly way. My godly heritage is rich, and I am in ministry today because of a Holy Ghostfilled and directed mom and dad who made sure I was trained in the way I should go. Thank you, Mike, for championing this cause! You have Gods own heart.

I really like this book! Why? Because it encourages me to see my role as a parent through the eyes and heart of God. He loves my children even more than I doand He gives me His promises that have substance and provide a firm foundation for me to stand on as a parent. Mike has been a frequent guest on Its a New Day, and hes always a blessing. The series we did about Gods promises for our children was a home run! These are promises that as a parent you wish God had given you, and then you discover He has!
