Why is there mourning? Why is there weeping? (Jeremiah 31:15). If you have been vigilant, you would know that all around the nations of the earth, satan has been working so hard to focus on our children. There have been lots of untimely deaths, children becoming prodigal sons and daughters, living like in the days of Sodom and Gomorrah. There have been those who have been sacrificed to demonic altars. Many are not listening to their parents anymore. They are getting involved in drugs, sex, alcohol, etc. The enemy has increased his attacks on our children because he knows they are our future five-fold ministers.  Every child is formed in the womb of the mother by God irrespective of whether or not the timing was correct (1 Samuel 2:21). Every child is on the earth for a purpose and God has a plan. As parents, we must bring them early to the Lord (Mathew 19:14). Every child is a gift from God graciously given to us by God. “Then Esau looked up and saw the women and children. “Who are these with you?” he asked. Jacob answered, “They are the children God has graciously given your servant.” Genesis 33:5. “Behold, children are a gift of the Lord, The fruit of the womb is a reward.” Psalm 127:3. It is the responsibility of parents to arise as Job (Job 1:5) as a regular practice and bring our children before the Lord as a sacrifice. If they have sinned, the blood of Jesus at the altars is there to wash them clean. We must arise and cry unto the one who hears the prayers for our children. If we are are waiting for a disaster before we pray, it is already too late. Now is the time to pray even for unborn children. We must pray for the righteousness in their generation.

Prayer Points

• Pray for those who are still waiting for their own biological children;  that Hannah’s God will pay attention to their cry and break through every wall of hindrance in the name of Jesus: “So the LORD attended to Hannah, and she conceived and gave birth to three sons and two daughters. Meanwhile, the boy Samuel grew up in the presence of the LORD.” 1 Samuel 2:21.

• Pray that God will direct the path of our children in choosing wise and not foolish friends; friends that fear the Lord: Whoever walks with the wise becomes wise, but the companion of fools will suffer harm.” Proverbs 13:20

• Most of the children have been taught the way of the Lord. Pray that they will continue in what they have learned and have been convicted of:  “ But as for you, continue in what you have learned and have become convinced of, because you know those from whom you learned it, and how from infancy you have known the Holy Scriptures, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus.” 2 Timothy 3:14-15

• Pray for the mercy of God over parents who have failed to carry out this command. Ask for the grace for parents to do that which the Lord has commanded. Pray that our children will be open to the Word of God: “These commandments that I give you today are to be on your hearts. Impress them on your children. Talk about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up.” Deuteronomy 6:6-7

• Pray that God will arise and bring comfort to the heart of every mourning parents whose children have wandered away: Jeremiah 31: 15

• Pray that ONLY the plan of God for our children shall stand: Jeremiah 29:11 “ For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.”

• Our children don’t bother to listen sometimes. Pray that the Lord will have compassion upon our children: Psalm 102:13 “You will arise and have compassion on Zion, for it is time to show favor to her; the appointed time has come.”

• Pray that our children will grow in wisdom and favor of God and man:  “And Jesus grew in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and man.” Luke 2:52   “And the child Samuel grew on, and was in favour both with the LORD, and also with men.” 1 Samuel 2:26

• Call on the Lord to arise and bring this word to pass: “All your sons will be taught of the Lord; And the well-being of your sons will be great.” Isaiah 54:13

• Ask the Lord to water our children with his word so their hearts can be ready for the Holy Spirit’s outpour:  “For I will pour out water on the thirsty land And streams on the dry ground; I will pour out My Spirit on your offspring And My blessing on your descendants.” Isaiah 44:3

• Declare this word over our children. God’s word cannot fail and will not return to him void:  “Behold, I and the children whom the Lord has given me are for signs and wonders in Israel from the Lord of hosts, who dwells on Mount Zion.” Isaiah 8:18

• The Lord has chosen parents so that they will teach their children the ways of the Lord. Pray that parents will not fail at their duty post:  Genesis 18:19 “For I have chosen him, so that he will command his children and his household after him to keep the way of the LORD by doing what is right and just, in order that the LORD may bring upon Abraham what He has promised.”

• We must pray because we have no idea what our children will become in the future. There is a blessing to the nations that will spring out from our children. Pray that this prophetic word must come to pass: “And through your offspring all nations of the earth will be blessed, because you have obeyed My voice." Genesis 22:18

• Pray for Godly relationships:  “ As soon as he had finished speaking to Saul, the soul of Jonathan was knit to the soul of David, and Jonathan loved him as his own soul.” 1 Samuel 18:1

• Pray that at the appointed time our children will leave home according to God’s word and get married according to God’s word: ”For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and they will become one flesh.” Genesis 2:24

• Our children will not be sacrificed on demonic altars. Pray against this kind of wickedness: Psalm 106:37-38 “They sacrificed their sons and their daughters to the demons; they poured out innocent blood, the blood of their sons and daughters, whom they sacrificed to the idols of Canaan, and the land was polluted with blood” Jeremiah 32:35 “They built the high places of Baal in the Valley of the Son of Hinnom, to offer up their sons and daughters to Molech, though I did not command them, nor did it enter into my mind, that they should do this abomination, to cause Judah to sin.
