POWERFUL PRAYERS FOR CHILDREN.
INTRODUCTION
In Psalm:127 vs 3, the bible says, “Behold, children are a heritage from the Lord, The fruit of the womb is a reward.”
It’s obvious from the above that children are God’s best gifts. This becomes an eye-opener to both the believer and the unbeliever. This also indicates that every child on the face of the earth is a seed of blessing from God, no matter the circumstances that surround the child’s conception whether incidental or otherwise. This also reflects that every child given to a couple or to a single mother at any stage of life is the best gift from God to the world, to fulfill a particular mandate for God as long as he/she lives on the face of the earth. But so much effect has been recorded ever since this knowledge has been revealed and made known to all souls. This can be seen by the adverse effect of livelihood on children in this era, some have developed ugly lifestyles and ungodly characters which would lead them to destruction. In the fullness of time, it can be seen that the ways of the younger generation have been so much affected by the powers of darkness, and it seems as though the plans of God over the children have been aborted. Some children even believe that what they are faced with is what they are created for, they have so much been affected by the oppressions and yokes of darkness and the powers of the flesh and they have summarized their destiny with what they have been challenged with. Although the scripture declares in 2 Timothy 3:1-2 “This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,(KJV)
When we look deeply it seems as though the whole scripture was written for the children which indeed is clear and true, the perilous days are at hand, and the wave of these perilous days is pushing so strong against the children, thereby enslaving them in ADDICTIONS, LIES, DISOBEDIENCE, CULTISM, IMMORAL ACTS AND THE LUSTS OF THE FLESH. These prayer points were written to address this issue, for the scripture declares in Isaiah 49:25 “But thus saith the LORD, Even the lawful captives of the mighty shall be taken away, and the prey of the terrible shall be delivered: for I will contend with him that contendeth with thee, and I will save thy children”.
If the word of God declares that the children He will save, then it means that the enemy is on the lookout for the children to harm and destroy them. But the word of the Lord says that He will save the Children; in this prayer points are the scriptures containing the words of God for the children and when we generalize children we mean all who took form in the womb and were nursed by a mother. As we pray let the arm of the Lord be revealed and let the powers of the enemy be broken. Amen.
