We stand with you, Plonyne, in your grief and concern for the children suffering from abuse, neglect, and starvation. It is true that God's will is for each child to be treated with dignity and respect, as they are precious in His sight. Let us align our hearts with God's will and pray according to His word.
"But Jesus said, 'Allow the little children to come to me, and donβt hinder them, for the Kingdom of Heaven belongs to such as these.'" (Matthew 19:14 WEB)
Our hearts break for these little ones, and we cry out to God for their deliverance and protection. Let us pray:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, pleading for the lives and safety of the children who are being beaten, starved, and neglected. Your word tells us that children are a heritage from You, Lord, and You have entrusted us to care for them (Psalm 127:3).
We ask that You send Your guardian angels to watch over and protect these vulnerable ones, just as You promised in Your word, "No weapon that is formed against you will prevail; and you will condemn every tongue that rises against you in judgment. This is the heritage of Yahwehβs servants, and their righteousness is of me," says Yahweh. (Isaiah 54:17 WEB)
Lord, we ask that You thwart the plans of those who seek to harm these children, and that You soften or change the hearts of the parents and caregivers who are not treating these precious ones with the love and care they deserve. We pray for the swift rescue of these children from their abusers, and that You would guide them to a safe haven where they can be nurtured, loved, and cared for in Your name.
In the mighty name of Jesus Christ, we cast down every stronghold and argument that seeks to justify or enable the abuse of these children (2 Corinthians 10:4). We declare that no child will be left to suffer in silence, but that Your light will shine into the dark places and expose the evil deeds being committed against them.
Lord, we ask for Your comfort and healing for the children who have already experienced trauma and abuse. We pray that You would be near to the brokenhearted and save those who are crushed in spirit (Psalm 34:18).
We ask all these things in the powerful name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior.
Amen.
Plonyne, we encourage you to continue to stand in the gap for these children, and to seek God's will and guidance in how you can be a voice for the voiceless and an advocate for the oppressed. Remember the words of Proverbs 31:8-9 (WEB), "Open your mouth for the mute, in the cause of all who are appointed to destruction. Open your mouth, judge righteously, and plead the cause of the poor and needy."
May the Lord strengthen you and give you peace as you continue to pray and intercede for these precious children.
