There’s something sacred about the prayers of a mother.
In quiet corners, tear-soaked pillows, or whispered words over a sleeping child, a mother’s prayer rises like incense to heaven.
And when that prayer is for her daughter, a girl navigating the beauty and brokenness of this world, it becomes even more powerful.
Whether she’s a toddler learning her first words, a teen finding her identity, or a grown woman building her own family, your daughter will always need your prayers.
As a mother, your intercession has spiritual weight.
Your voice may not always guide her steps, but your prayers can.
They go where you cannot, shielding her, empowering her, and calling heaven’s favor down upon her life.
The Bible gives us plenty of promises we can pray over our daughters—promises of wisdom, protection, identity, purpose, and peace.
These Scriptures aren’t just words; they are declarations of faith, rooted in God’s unchanging truth.
