The Power of Prayer for Mothers
Praying is the best way that we can connect to God. We talk to Him, let Him carry our burdens, as well as tell him our wants, and our needs.
Praying for our mothers is just another way we can connect to God, and it can also help us feel more connected to our mother.
Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done. Then you will experience God’s peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:6-7 NLT
Prayer Points to Pray for Mothers
As you pray for your mother or mothers in general, here are some prayer points to help you get started:
- Jesus, I pray for my mother’s health, that you cleanse her mind, body, and soul.
- Lord, I pray for my mother’s safety. I pray that you watch over her and protect her.
- God, I pray that you are with my mother when she feels stressed out, worried, or overwhelmed.
- Loving Father, I pray that you bless my mother’s finances.
Prayers for Mothers Everywhere
No matter what the occasion is, you can pray for mothers everywhere.
And believe me, as a mother of 5, we welcome all prayers!
Lord, I pray for every mother. I thank you that you continue to nurture, protect, and love all mothers unconditionally. I pray that you continue to watch over all mothers, their home, their children, their spouses, their finances, their safety as well as over their daily lives, Lord.
Thank you so much for the things that make a mother’s life easier. Thank you for her home, her kitchen, her transportation, dishwasher, washer, dryer, and all of the other countless appliances that she uses daily.
I pray protection over all mothers and that you bless their minds, soul, home, and heart. In Jesus’ name.
Prayer for Overwhelmed Moms
Becoming a mother means you occasionally have a front-row seat to being overwhelmed.
Whether you are overwhelmed because of that laundry you haven’t tended to, the pile of dishes in the sink, or simply just because you are tired, it is overwhelming and the feeling can feel all too much.

Lord, I pray for all of the mothers right now who are feeling overwhelmed. I pray for your hand to intercede and take control. I pray that you take the heavy load off of their shoulders. Amen.
Prayer for Mother’s Strength
As mothers, we need all of the strength we can get. Sometimes we feel like superheroes, but other times we feel our strength depleting almost on a daily basis.
Let’s pray for our mother’s strength that she has within her at all times.
Lord, I pray for my mother’s strength. I pray that you wrap your loving arms around her, Lord. Help her to see what everyone else sees, and take the weight off of her shoulders. Amen.
Be sure to also pray for single moms to have the strength that only God can provide.
Prayer for Working Moms
Let’s just face it… not easy being a working mom.
Working moms are a true breed of own! It takes a lot of sacrifices to be a working mom. Working moms sacrifice time, money, and patience among other things.
So let’s pray for those working moms.
Heavenly Father, thank you so much for my working mother. Please protect her as she travels to and from work, and keep her safe. Thank you for the financial security that she provides. Thank you for the opportunity she has in the workplace. Amen.
Prayer for Worried Mothers
It is no secret that mothers worry.
It doesn’t matter what age our children are, either. We never stop worrying about our children.
Let’s pray for the worried moms everywhere!
Lord, please be with all of the worried mothers. We know that you have reign over everything, Lord. Please calm their minds, their bodies, and their spirits, Lord. You are the only one who can take this weight off of their shoulders, and we thank you so much for that, Father. Amen.
Prayer for Mothers Who Have Lost a Child
Losing a child fills a mother with unimaginable grief.
This grief can only be tamed by prayer and closeness with the Lord.
Let’s pray for the mothers who have lost a child.
Lord, thank you for the incredible gift of life. Thank you for the ability that women have to give birth, Lord. It is a true blessing from you. Please wrap your arms around those mothers who have lost a child. Help ease their pain with your grace, love, and mercy. You are the only one that can carry that weight and we thank you for that Lord. Amen.

Prayer for Mothers on Mother’s Day
Mother’s Day is a very special day where we get to pamper and love on our mothers a little more than usual.
