00:31 Today I want to pray for our children and our youth.
00:35 Satan is very busy trying to hurt our young people, 00:37 whether it's mentally, physically, 00:40 or maybe just keeping them too busy 00:41 to make time for God. 00:43 Matthew 18 is a reminder for me. 00:46 It's talking about when the disciples 00:47 were wanting to know 00:49 who was going to be the greatest among them. 00:51 Verse 5 says, "Assuredly I say to you, 00:54 unless you are converted and become as little children, 00:57 you will by no means enter the kingdom of heaven. 01:00 Therefore, whoever humbles himself 01:02 as this little child is the greatest in heaven. 01:05 Whoever receives one little child like this 01:08 in My name receives Me." 01:11 And then later on, Jesus says, 01:13 "Woe to the person who causes them to stumble." 01:17 Satan is always on the attack. 01:19 God wants us to teach our young people and children 01:22 to know more about Him and to focus 01:25 and take time to study His Word. 01:36 Jesus loves me, 01:39 this I know 01:42 For the Bible tells me 01:46 so Little ones to Him 01:51 belong They are weak, 01:56 but He is strong 02:01 Yes, 02:03 Jesus loves me 02:08 Yes, 02:10 Jesus loves me 02:14 Yes, 02:17 Jesus loves me 02:21 The Bible tells me 02:27 So 02:33 Our Father in heaven, 02:35 I come before You lifting up our children and our youth. 02:41 As I look around, 02:42 I see more and more of our kids searching 02:45 for answers during these times of turmoil and heartache. 02:51 I pray that Your saving grace 02:54 will be the answer that they see. 02:57 Work through me, Lord, 02:59 that I may be an example of Your saving grace, 03:03 and help me to show Your love to those 03:06 I come in contact with. 03:09 I know that Your heartache must be great each time a child 03:12 strays from Your family, 03:14 and how much You long for them 03:16 to take hold of Your extended hand of love 03:19 to bring them back into the fold. 03:22 Lord, may each one of these youth 03:25 and young children 03:26 see Your hand reaching out to them. 03:30 I pray that they will take Your hand. 03:34 Thank you, Father. 03:40 Heavenly Father, we come before Your throne of grace 03:42 to find mercy and help for our children 03:44 and youth in a time of need. 03:47 Oh Lord, may these young ones come to know You 03:50 as their loving Father. 03:53 Oh, Lord, put a hedge of protection 03:55 around them and keep them from evil. 03:58 Oh, Lord, please fulfill Your promises 04:01 and Your purposes in their lives. 04:04 We ask this in the name of Jesus. 04:07 Amen. 04:12 Father in heaven, we lift up the children 04:13 and youth of the church. 04:15 We know that they struggle with things 04:17 and there's a lot of things in their life 04:19 that can be hard to deal with. 04:21 But, Lord, we ask that You preserve them, 04:23 give them strength and give them a boldness 04:26 to share the gospel. 04:27 Whether that's with their friends or family, 04:29 maybe even strangers. 04:31 But God, right now we want to lift them up 04:33 because we know that 04:34 since they are the future of the church, 04:35 they will be the ones to help finish 04:37 the work so that you may return. 04:40 God, we thank You so much 04:41 for what You're going to do in their lives 04:43 and what You're continuing to do in their lives right now. 04:47 Thank You, Lord.
