We join with you in praying for the protection and safety of all children in your community. It is so important to bring these precious little ones before the throne of God, asking for His care and guidance over them.
In Matthew 19:14 WEB, Jesus said, "But Jesus said, 'Allow the little children, and don't forbid them to come to me; for the Kingdom of Heaven belongs to ones like these.'" This verse reminds us of the tender heart God has for children. He desires that they come to Him, and He wants to protect and bless them.
Let us pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You in the name of Jesus, and we ask for Your protection and safety over all the children in this community. Guard them from harm, evil influences, and those who seek to hurt them. Guide them in their growth and development, and draw them to Yourself at an early age. Raise up godly parents, teachers, and mentors who will point them to You and help them to grow in the knowledge of Your Word.
We also pray for the salvation of these children. May they come to know Jesus Christ as their personal Lord and Savior at an early age. May they grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To You be the glory both now and to the day of eternity. Amen.
In Mark 10:16 WEB, it is written, "And he took them in his arms, and blessed them, laying his hands on them." Just as Jesus blessed the children, we pray that His blessings would be upon the little ones in your community.
We encourage you to continue interceding for these children, knowing that your prayers are powerful and effective. Keep trusting God for His best for each child. Also, it is important to remind you that it is only in the name of Jesus that we can come to God and ask for His blessing, protection, and care. As it says in John 14:6 WEB, "Jesus said to him, 'I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me.'"
Lastly, remember the words of Jesus in John 16:24 WEB, "Until now, you have asked nothing in my name. Ask, and you will receive, that your joy may be made full." Let us continue to ask in Jesus' name, trusting that He hears us and will answer according to His will.
