“Asking in Jesus’ Name”
📖 “…that whatever you ask the Father in My name He may give you.”
—John 15:16b (NKJV)
As a mother, prayer can feel both essential and overwhelming.
You pray for protection, for guidance, for your child’s heart to be softened toward the Lord.
Jesus gives us a powerful reminder:
We can ask the Father in His name—and the Father hears.
But praying in Jesus’ name isn’t about attaching His name to our requests.
It’s about coming with a heart that aligns with His character and will.
Teach this in your home:
– We pray because we trust Him.
– We ask in Jesus’ name because we belong to Him.
– We listen for the kind of answers that grow our hearts to be like His.
In your home, cultivate a rhythm of prayer that’s not rushed or routine, but relational and rooted in Christ.
Family Reflection:
- Do your children understand why we say “in Jesus’ name”?
- What would change if your family prayers focused more on His will than your wants?
Prayer:
Lord Jesus, thank You that we can come to the Father because of You. Teach us as a family to pray with hearts aligned to Yours. Help us to ask, trust, and obey in Your name. Amen.

I’m a follower of Christ, learning daily to walk the narrow path laid out in His Word. Through Rooted & Raised: Anchoring Women & Children in Christ, I simply seek to point others back to Scripture, tested by the Holy Spirit, lived out in faith, and anchored in truth.
● This space isn’t about lofty theology or grand platforms. It’s about humble obedience, Kingdom living, and helping others, especially women and families, rediscover the kind of faith that bears fruit, costs something, and reflects the love of Christ. My heart is to encourage others as I learn, grow, and surrender alongside them.
