10 Ways Grandparents Can Support Their Children While Still Letting Them Lead Their Families

James 5:16 says, “…The effective fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much” (NKJV). Sometimes grandparents say, “I guess all that’s left to do is pray.” Rather than letting prayer be your last resort, let it become your battle cry. And work to keep your heart pure so your prayers will be powerful.

At this time in history, there’s no room for mediocre Christianity. Your kids are raising their children in a culture that looks nothing like what we raised ours in. The moral and social issues they face are Satan’s attempt to steal, kill and destroy our children’s very souls (see Ephesians 6:12).

As Moses interceded on the mountaintop for Joshua’s battle against his foes, let your family know you’re standing with them––on your knees. Pray for their salvation, for wisdom, for their purity, and for their future spouses. Resolve to support them through prayer and never waiver. I’m certain you won’t regret it.
