As a grandparent, we share a deep bond with our grandchildren. The reason is that they are an extension of who we are. They are proof that our children have now become mothers and fathers in their own rights.
In the African tradition, grandparents see their grandchildren as their sons and daughters and they pray heavily for them.
Now, as a grandparent, there are specific things you should say in prayers for your grandson.
Let me state it clearly. There are specific prayers you should say for your grandson – unlike the general prayers you say for both your grandson and granddaughter.
In this article, I will discuss 5 important prayers that work effectively when you say them.
1) Blessing prayer for my grandson
“God Our Lord, today I am very happy, very grateful for everything YOU have given me and very grateful for the life I have.
I adore my grandson, I love him with all my strength and that’s why I’m praying this prayer.
I’m praying for my grandson (say grandson’s name), I’m praying that You give my grandson strength, faith and protection.
I am praying to you to help my grandson (say grandson’s name) to be protected from all evil forces, all enemies and all negative energies.
God the Father, protect my grandson (say the grandson’s name) from everything and everyone. Keep my grandson from all harm now and forever.
Amen.”

This is the first type of prayer you should say for your grandson. The blessing prayer releases God’s blessing upon your grandson.
It is one of the prayers you should say as a sign of comfort and love for him. As the child grows up, there are many challenges he will have to face as a man. Without the blessing prayer, he might fail.
Additionally, this prayer is known to bring good luck to your grandson. Therefore, if you desire to see your grandson enjoy good luck, and prosperity, and have a good life, then, you should say this prayer.
I recommend saying this prayer 3 times a day for him. It releases sufficient power over him and aligns his path with what God has in store for him.
This is a very precise prayer. It makes requests to God on behalf of your grandson and releases positive energy on his behalf.
Do you want to see your grandson excel in life?
2) Prayer to help my grandson with problems
“God Our Lord, my grandson called (say the grandson’s name) is having some problems in his life. I don’t know what to do, I don’t know how to help. That’s why I pray this prayer. That’s why I pray to You, my God Our Lord.
I have a special request, not for myself, but for my grandson:
(Speak here your special request)
Please God Our Lord, help my grandson to solve all his problems, help my grandson to get rid of all the evil and to be happy.
Amen.”

As stated earlier, praying for your grandson helps him to overcome several challenges.
The blessing prayer (the first prayer in this article) can be generalized. This means that you can say that prayer for every aspect of the child’s life.
However, the “prayer to help my grandson with problems” is more specific. You can say this prayer in advance, or say this prayer when your grandson is faced with a challenge.
This prayer does not only bring him out of those problems. It helps him to become stronger; so that the next time challenges come, he will be strong enough to face them like a man.
The best time to say this prayer is at midnight. I have recommended this to a lot of grandparents and it has worked perfectly.
Start by thanking God for the victory your grandson will enjoy before tendering your requests on his behalf before God.
3) Prayer to protect my grandson from harm
“May the powers and all the forces of God Our Lord appear in the life of my grandson (say the grandson’s name) right now! May God’s miracles appear in my grandson’s (say grandson’s name) life right now.
I ask that God protect you, (say the grandson’s name). I ask that God is always by your side (say the grandson’s name)! I ask that God never forget you, not now, not ever!
With all the powers of God and with all the forces of heaven, you will be protected (say the grandson’s name). You will be with the presence of God by your side. I know so, I know so.
Amen.”

This is another special prayer to say for your grandson.
I will specially recommend reading “Psalm 91” 7 times before saying this prayer. If you can, also read “Psalm 121” about 3 times.
All of those bible verses speak about protection, and the hand of God to bring safety to people. While reading them, you can capture the image of your grandson in your heart.
Doing all of these will create the perfect atmosphere for the prayer of protection.
Ensure you say these prayers will faith in your heart.
Now, to add a little spice to this prayer, get a picture of your grandson, write his name at the back with a red pen, and place the picture inside a bible. This is a typical expression of hiding your grandson in God.
Have you done that?
4) Prayer to help my grandson be happy
“I pray with all the strength, with all the faith and with all the energy possible within my heart to help you (grandson’s name) right now.
I pray to God Our Lord, who will help me to enter your life. I pray to God Our Lord, who will make you happy.
God Our Lord will help you (grandson’s name) to overcome all problems, all adversities, all moments of sadness and all bad phases of your life.
My grandson (grandson’s name), I want you to be happy! I know you’ll be happy! I say this because you will always have the presence of God Our Lord at your side.
Amen.”

When you say this prayer, God will make your grandson happy with his life.
You know, several things in life make people lose their peace. This does not have to be about sickness, failures, and other negative things. It might be something like discovering your purpose, and so on.
This is why you need to be watchful in prayers every time for your grandson. You need to tell God to make him happy in his life.
Pray against depression and its source.
Pray against any negative spiritual attack that might be staged against your grandson
5) Catholic prayer for my grandson

This is a general prayer for your grandson.
As a Catholic, start with the sign of the cross. You can also hold a rosary for easy connection with the heavens.
Begin the prayer exercise by thanking God for your grandson. Mention the things God has done for him.
Afterwards, tender your requests before God.
