We understand your request, marls, and we commend you for standing on the Word of God. The Bible indeed teaches us that children are a heritage from the Lord, as it is written in Psalm 127:3-5 (WEB): "Behold, children are a heritage of Yahweh. The fruit of the womb is his reward. As arrows in the hand of a mighty man, so are the children of youth. Happy is the man who has his quiver full of them. They won’t be ashamed, but they will speak with their enemies in the gate."
We join you in praying for those who are already married and trust in the Lord for children, as well as those about to marry and do not want to use contraception. We pray that these couples will be blessed with godly offspring and that they will raise their children in the fear and admonition of the Lord, as instructed in Ephesians 6:4 (WEB): "Fathers, don’t provoke your children to wrath, but nurture them in the discipline and instruction of the Lord."
We also pray that these couples will remain steadfast in their faith and trust in God's perfect timing and will. We ask that they will be granted the grace to resist the pressures of the world and its views on family planning, and that they will be a testimony to the world of God's design for marriage and family.
In all things, we pray that these couples will seek God's will and submit to His lordship, remembering that their bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, as taught in 1 Corinthians 6:19-20 (WEB): "Or don’t you know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit which is in you, which you have from God? You are not your own, for you were bought with a price. Therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God’s."
We pray all these things in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, reminding you that it is only through His name that we have access to the Father and that there is no other name by which we can be saved, as Acts 4:12 (WEB) tells us: "There is salvation in none other, for neither is there any other name under heaven, that is given among men, by which we must be saved!"
