A Catholic Mother’s Prayers for Her Daughter
Published November 14th, 2019
As mothers, we all want the best for our precious daughters. Whenever they are in a dark place, we want to help them and overcome their hardships in life.
The Lord, our Savior, is always there in our every battle to keep all of us safe. But, as a parent, we can’t help but think about the inevitable danger and be anxious about the trials that might happen anytime, not only to us but to our children as well.
However, as Christians, we should know how powerful prayers can be in overcoming our doubts and fears. As long as we put our faith in God, all the sufferings that we have are already won. Here are some of the mother’s prayer that you can use for whatever struggles your daughter is having right now.
Prayer For Your Daughter’s Anxiety and Stress
Oh, Lord, let my daughter hear you.
Her soul is weary.
Worries, fears, and doubts surround her on every side.
Yet your sweet mercy cannot be held back.
From those that cry out to you, hear her cry.
Let her trust in your mercy.
Show her how.
Free her from anxiety and stress.
And may she find rest in your loving arms.
Amen.
Prayer for Your Daughter’s Wisdom
Dear God,
Create the will for my daughter to come to you with her problems.
Let her feel safe, loved, cared, and comforted by your presence.
Give her wisdom and show her how to make good choices in her life.
Teach her to look within for her very best.
Help her realize that You, God, are her strength and guidance.
Let her know that enemies will come,
But through You, she will always be victorious.
Amen.
Prayer For Your Daughter Against Negativity
Heavenly Father,
Embrace my daughter with your tranquility and love
So that her mind can be at ease.
Break every chain of negative thoughts,
and speak prosperity and positivity into her life,
for life and death are in the power of the tongue.
Therefore I declare and decree that every stronghold in my daughter’s life produced by negative thought patterns be broken in the mighty name of Jesus.
Amen.

Prayer For Your Daughter To Be A Seeker Of God
Dear Heavenly Father,
Sometimes my daughter has trouble finding the time or desire to seek your presence.
May you plant in her, oh Lord, the spirit of a seeker of God.
Let your spirit transform her and inspire her to discover you in new ways.
Free her from her comfort zones,
Break down her structures,
and may Your Kingdom reign again in her heart.
Give her, oh Lord, the spirit of a seeker of God.
May it be her permanent quest.
May it be her primary goal,
For the rewards are celestial,
and the glory is yours alone.
Amen.
Prayer For Your Daughter When She Is Hurting
Dear God,
I see weakness and failure around my daughter.
Loss and betrayal rise to test her faith.
I’m hurt and sad with what I see, and so is she.
I know you are with her, oh Lord, yet the hurt still remains in her.
May she find truth and peace again, oh loving Father.
In the wounds of my Lord,
In my Savior, Jesus Christ,
There is no answer for her in heaven or on Earth.
In Jesus’ name, I pray,
Amen.
Prayer For Your Daughter Who is Struggling With Addiction
Dear merciful Lord,
My daughter suffers from the chains and lies of the enemy.
Her body, soul, and mind are tortured by addiction.
Hear my cry, oh Lord.
Have mercy on my daughter.
Bring her freedom and healing.
Help her stay faithful and not give in.
Give her the courage to set healthy limits
And not feed the beasts that only seek to devour
Rise up, oh, mighty God!
Strike down the enemy,
Cast out the demons,
and set the captives free.
Set your sweet grace and your loving tenderness.
May your holy spirit come to my daughter.
By the glorious grace of Jesus Christ,
all things are possible.
In His holy name, I pray.
Amen.
