Hopeful parents
plead in prayer for children to turn to the Lord. We intercede for their souls.
We call out to El Yeshuati, the God of Our Salvation (see Isaiah
12:2) to call their hearts closer to His own. We simply ache for our kids to
choose to follow the Lord and to ask our gracious God to write their names in
His Book of Life (see Revelation 21:27).
God knows. How many times has He seen His children step
outside His perfect path? (That includes all of us.) And how often has He drawn
us back and gathered us to the places He has prepared for us to live in His
love?
He did it for Israel throughout the Old Testament and more
recent history. And He will do it again.
“So there is hope for your descendants,” declares the Lord. “Your children will return to their own land.” (Jeremiah 31:17, NIV)
Great God who
saves, we cry out for the hearts of our children. We want nothing more than for
them to look to You and to know Your love in their lives. Give them a peek at
Your Presence in their lives. Call them back when they need it, so they may
follow You ever more closely. We ask in faith and in the name of
our wonderful Lord, Your Son Jesus Christ.
