Prayer for Children
Bible Reading: Proverbs 22:1-8
“1 A GOOD name is rather to be chosen than great riches, and loving favour rather than silver and gold.
2 The rich and poor meet together: the LORD is the maker of them all.
3 A prudent man foresees the evil, and hide himself: but the simple pass on, and are punished.
4 By humility and the fear of the LORD are riches, and honour, and life.
5 Thorns and snares are in the way of the froward: he that doth keep his soul shall be far from them.
6 Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.
7 The rich rule over the poor, and the borrower is servant to the lender.
8 He that soweth iniquity shall reap vanity: and the rod of his anger shall fail.” Proverbs 22:1-8
Today is another historical day around the world, a day set aside as Children Day. Our prayer bombs for today focus on praying for our children. It is a pity that thousands of people that causing crisis, mayhem and trouble around the world today are children and these are from one parent or the other. Most of these children are not trained in the way of peace and that is why they became an instrument in the hand of the devil.
There is no doubt that many parents, guardians, teachers, instructors and generally, adults, used to be very brilliant, obedient and well-behaved while they were children, and this happens as a result of good training and directions taught them when they were in young. On the other hands, many parents and teachers instruct their children and pupils without paying attention to their tenderness, innocence, docility and general childishness of kids, and such children become another thing that does not call of in the hands of the enemies.
No matter the condition of your children on this day of children day, don’t lose hope in him or them. There is no doubt that some children prove to be very stubborn to handle. This is no excuse to abuse them either physically or psychologically or neglect them. You need to handle your child or children with the wisdom of God. Children can be a handful and when they are man-handled, the outcome might be worse than being a handful. For your children to become an instrument in the hand of God, for his or her purpose and be successful in careers need your maximum caring in terms of finances, education, counselling, encouragement, discipline as well as fervent and violent prayers for such child.
Remember how the Lord Jesus Christ teach His us.
“And they brought young children to him, that he should touch them: and his disciples rebuked those that brought them.
But when Jesus saw it, he was much displeased, and said unto them, Suffer the little children to come unto me, and forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God.
Verily I say unto you, whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child, he shall not enter therein.
And he took them up in his arms, put his hands upon them, and blessed them.” Mark 10:13-16
Beloved, use these prayer points to pray for your children on this occasion of children Day. You can support your prayers with fasting. As a child, you too can pray these prayers for yourself, and God will prove Himself mightily in your life. But make sure you repent all sins, confess them and ask for forgiveness. Luke 13:3-5, Acts 2:38-42
